Hydraulic GSM Cutter
A Hydraulic GSM Cutter is a precision instrument used to cut circular fabric samples for GSM (Grams per Square Meter) testing. It uses hydraulic pressure to ensure clean, uniform cuts through multiple fabric layers, making it ideal for high-throughput or thicker materials.
Purpose of Hydraulic GSM Cutter:
– To prepare accurate circular samples (usually 100 cm² area) for determining fabric weight in GSM.
– Used widely in textile testing labs for quality control and consistency.
Working Principle of Hydraulic GSM Cutter:
– Fabric is placed on a cutting pad.
– The cutter, equipped with a sharp circular blade, is hydraulically pressed down on the fabric.
– The cut sample is then weighed to calculate GSM using a formula or GSM scale.
Applications of Hydraulic GSM Cutter:
– Suitable for woven, knitted, and nonwoven fabrics.
– Used in textile mills, labs, and R&D centers.
Benefits of Hydraulic GSM Cutter:
- High Cutting Precision – Ensures consistent and accurate fabric sample size for reliable GSM results.

How to Use Hydraulic GSM Cutter:
- Place the Cutting Pad – Lay the rubber or nylon cutting pad on a flat surface.
- Position the Fabric – Place the fabric sample flat and smooth on the cutting pad.
- Align the Cutter – Position the GSM cutter die over the desired area of the fabric.
- Activate Hydraulic Press – Pull the lever or press the button to apply hydraulic pressure and cut the sample.
- Remove the Sample – Lift the cutter and carefully take out the circular fabric piece (usually 100 cm²).
- Weigh the Sample – Place the cut sample on a precision balance or GSM scale to determine weight.
- Calculate GSM – Multiply the sample weight (in grams) by 100 to get GSM.
GSM Formula (Grams per Square Meter):
GSM is used to measure the weight of fabric and indicates its thickness and quality.
Formula:
GSM = (Sample Weight in grams × 10000) / Sample Area in cm²
For standard cutters that cut 100 cm² samples:
GSM = Sample Weight (in grams) × 100
Example:
– If a 100 cm² fabric sample weighs 1.5 grams:
GSM = 1.5 × 100 = 150 GSM

Random Tumble Pilling Tester
Random Tumble Pilling Tester
The Random Tumble Pilling Tester is a specialized instrument designed to assess the pilling resistance of textile fabrics. Pilling refers to the formation of small, fuzzy balls (pills) on the fabric surface due to wear and friction. This tester simulates the wear conditions that fabrics experience during actual use, providing valuable data on their durability and appearance retention. Purpose of Random Tumble Pilling Tester The primary function of the Random Tumble Pilling Tester is to evaluate how fabrics resist pilling, fuzzing, and matting. This assessment is crucial for manufacturers aiming to ensure the longevity and aesthetic quality of their textile products. Working Principle of Random Tumble Pilling Tester The tester operates by placing fabric specimens into cylindrical test chambers lined with cork. Inside each chamber, a stainless steel impeller rotates at a high speed (typically around 1200 revolutions per minute), causing the fabric samples to tumble randomly. Compressed air is injected to enhance the tumbling action. This process simulates the friction and wear that fabrics undergo during regular use. After a predetermined duration, the samples are removed and visually assessed for pilling using standardized rating scales. Key Specifications of Random Tumble Pilling Tester Test Chambers: Available in configurations of 2 or 4 chambers to accommodate multiple samples simultaneously. - Rotation Speed: Approximately 1200 revolutions per minute. - Chamber Dimensions: Typically around 146 mm in diameter and 152 mm in length. - Impeller Size: Standard impellers measuring about 121 mm. - Compressed Air Pressure: Adjustable, commonly between 14–21 kPa (2–3 psi). - Timer: Digital timer allowing precise control over test duration. - Power Supply: Generally operates on 220V, 50Hz power sources.
