Description
The Martindale can test for abrasion resistance and fabric pilling of textiles, as well as a range of applications. The Martindale performs a certain number of rubs per cycle and will perform each rub in a Lissajous pattern. A rub is one revolution of the two outer drives of the Martindale, a cycle is the completion of all the translational abrasion movements tracing a Lissajous figure comprising 16 rubs and A Lissajous is any one of an infinite variety of curves traced out by a point which undergoes two simple motions in perpendicular directions. On a Martindale, the Lissajous is created by 16 rubs and has a total Length of 3.02m.
The Martindale has a rotational speed of 47 ± 2.5 rpm and an exposed area of specimen from 3.14cm² to 6.45cm² depending on the type of test being performed.
The Martindale can be supplied with a comprehensive range of accessories for different specimen types, including sock abrasion, a line contact plate and a leatherball plate. The instrument can test both textiles and non-textiles such as socks, leather, carpets, coated upholstery and edges.
