Best Cupping Tester
Did your new jeans you bought develop "thread balls" after two washes? Or did your car seat fabric fade quickly? Your customers are also facing the same problems! The root cause of these quality defects – low abrasion resistance. The most important testing tool to solve this is the "Cupping Tester". In this comprehensive guide, we will take a complete look at the workings, advantages, selection method and special features of the Cupping Tester from Adarsh Technologies!
What is a Cupping Tester? How does it work?
A Cupping Tester is a quality testing instrument that measures the abrasion resistance of thin materials such as fabric, paper, plastic, leather. It is designed in accordance with global standards such as ASTM D3514, ISO 12945-2, BS 5811.
Simple explanation of the test method:
- Sample preparation:Cut the material to be tested into a circular shape and place it in a special holder.
- Ball + Pressure:A rubber ball is placed on the sample and pressed at a specific pressure (e.g., 300 g, 500 g).
- Rotation & Friction:The ball is rotated at a predetermined RPM speed (e.g., 300 RPM).
- Results:Evaluate the sample after 1,000 / 5,000 / 10,000 cycles on the following basis:
- Pilling Grade:1 to 5
- Colour Fading
- Tear / Hole (Surface Damage)
"A textile label manufacturer uses the Adarsh Cupping Tester to ensure that his label remains as good as new even after 10,000 cycles. As a result, his products are #1 sellers in the market!"
