Fatigue Tester for Elastic Fabric
Fatigue tester for Elastic fabric
A Fatigue Tester for Elastic Fabric is a specialized instrument designed to evaluate the durability and performance of elastic materials, such as elastic bands, tapes, and fabrics, under repeated stretching and relaxation cycles. This testing is crucial for applications where elastic materials are subjected to continuous or repetitive stress, ensuring they maintain their functionality over time.
Purpose Fatigue Tester for Elastic Fabric The primary objective of this tester is to simulate the conditions that elastic fabrics endure during actual use. By repeatedly stretching and relaxing the material, the tester assesses:
– Elastic Recovery: The ability of the material to return to its original length after stretching.
– Fatigue Resistance: How well the material withstands repeated cycles without significant degradation.
– Durability: The lifespan of the elastic properties under continuous use.
Working Principle of Fatigue Tester for Elastic Fabric
The tester operates by clamping a specimen of the elastic fabric and subjecting it to cyclic stretching and relaxation.
Key operational features include:
Cycle Count: The number of stretching and relaxation cycles is set according to testing requirements.
– Speed Regulation: The rate of stretching can be adjusted to simulate different usage conditions.
– Monitoring: The tester records data such as the number of cycles completed and any changes in the fabric’s properties.
For instance, the Elastic Band Fatigue Tester ADL-FT01 features a high-speed linear slide, servo motor, and touch screen control software, allowing precise control over stretching parameters
