Yarn Friction Tester

Description :-
Friction testing of yarn is very important in textile processing. It plays a major role in weaving efficiency and in the performance of the final fabrics. Yarn friction tester is widely used to test the friction characteristics of fiber yarn. Generally, frictional behaviour of yarns made from different spinning system is effected by their surface structure.
Friction between fibers in a yarn is a basic property effecting the characteristics of a textile product during all stages of production and use. Besides that different physical or chemical properties of yarns tend to impart different surface characteristic and different friction behavior.
Salient Features:

• The equipment provides fast and accurate reproducible measuring results.
• The yarn specimen to be tested is drawn over a friction body at a definite speed and angle.
• The tensile force is calculated before from this friction body.
