Cantilever Fabric Stiffness Tester
The Cantilever Fabric Stiffness Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the bending height, flexural rigidity, and bending modulus of various fabrics. It provides an accurate, intuitive method to assess stiffness performance for woven, layered, napped, knitted, pile, and other textile materials. The device is equipped with advanced non-contact measurement technology and automated systems to ensure high precision and repeatability.
Application
The tester is widely used in:
(1) Textile and apparel manufacturing: evaluating fabric stiffness for clothing and home textiles
(2) R&D laboratories: developing new fabric blends and coatings
(3) Quality control: batch testing of woven, knitted, napped, or pile fabrics
(4) Technical textiles: industrial fabrics, automotive interiors, and protective materials
(5) Educational institutions: fabric property testing for textile engineering courses
Standards
ZB WO4003
GB/T 18318 (Textile – Fabric stiffness determination)
ASTM D1388 (Standard Test Method for Stiffness of Fabrics)
ISO 9073-7 (Textiles – Nonwovens – Determination of bending properties)
BS EN 22313 (Textile fabrics – Determination of bending rigidity)
Features
(1) Infrared “stealth” detection system: replaces traditional physical slope measurement for non-contact detection, avoiding sample twist errors.
(2) Adjustable measurement tilt: allows precise control of sample orientation during testing.
(3) Automatic detection system: improves accuracy and minimizes operator error.
(4) Sample pressure plate automatic landing: ensures consistent sample positioning for reliable results.
(5) Computer-controlled interface with LCD display and report printing for efficient operation and documentation.
