Digital Pilling Tester

We offer a comprehensive range of Digital Pilling Tester that is used in textile industry for determining the tendency of the fabric to form pills. We manufacture, export and supply Digital Pilling Tester from New Delhi. Pilling is the formation on the surface of a fabric of small balls of entangled fiber. It is a fabric surface fault characterized by little pills of entangled fibers clinging to the surface. These are formed during wearing or washing by the entanglement of the loose fibers, which protrude from the fabric surface, and development of these into spherical bundle anchored to the fabric by a few unbroken fibers. These give a very unsightly look to the garments. The apparatus is beautifully finished in powder coated paint. The boxes are covered with a layer of matching laminated sheet.

Functioning :
Test specimen is taken from the fabric sample and is sewn, so as to be a firm fit, when placed round a molded polyurethane tube. Four tubes are placed in each of the two Boxes provided in the Tester. The Boxes are set in motion for an agreed number of revolutions. After tumbling, the extent of Pilling is determined visually against photographic standards.
