Digital Pilling Tester, For Household, Industrial, Laboratory

Digital Pilling Tester is used to check the pilling resistance of the fabric. Digital Pilling Tester manufactured by B-Tex Engineering is of fine quality and gives optimum performance.
Pilling is a fabric surface fault characterized by little pills of entangled fibres clinging to the surface. Pills are formed during wearing or washing by the entanglement of the loose fibres, which protrude from fabric surface. To determine the tendency to form pills, test specimens taken from the fabric sample are rubbed against each other under controlled conditions.
