Socks wear tester
The Socks Wear Tester is a specialized testing instrument designed to evaluate the wear resistance, durability, and comfort of socks material. By simulating real-life wear and rubbing conditions, it provides objective data on abrasion, tearing, and overall performance, making it essential for quality control, product development, and research in the textile and apparel industry.
Application
The Socks Wear Tester can be applied in:
(1) Textile and Apparel Industry: Testing cotton, wool, synthetic fiber, and blended socks for wear resistance and durability.
(2) Footwear Industry: Evaluating knitted shoe liners or socks integrated into footwear.
(3) Material R&D: Assessing new yarns, coatings, or fabric treatments for enhanced wear resistance.
(4) Extended Applications: Can also be used for testing thin fabrics, textile coatings, and small polymer-based materials.
Specific products tested include: cotton socks, wool socks, synthetic athletic socks, blended fibers, and textile shoe linings.
Standards
The machine complies with international and national standards, including:
(1) EN 13770-2002 – Textiles – Determination of wear resistance of knitted footwear – Method C
(2) ASTM D4966 – Martindale Abrasion Tester standard
(3) ISO 12947 – Textiles – Determination of the abrasion resistance of fabrics by the Martindale method
(4) GB/T 3916-2008 – Textile testing for wear resistance
Features
(1) Dual workstations for simultaneous testing of two sock samples.
(2) Imported linear sliders ensure smooth and vibration-free operation.
(3) Large color touch screen with Chinese/English interface for easy control.
(4) Servo drive motor enables adjustable speed with low noise operation.
(5) Base treated with durable metal baking paint; electric control box also coated for long-term use.
(6) Sampling handwheel with thread-locking to prevent slippage.
(7) Cork-equipped leg surface to support accurate and consistent sample mounting.
(8) Supports multiple friction testing methods: Martindale (Lissajous curve), Schopper, and linear wear testing.
(9) Records the number of friction cycles until damage or thinning occurs for precise wear resistance analysis.

Accessories
(1) Main testing unit – 1 set
(2) Sample holders – 2 pcs
(3) Friction cloth/pads – 2 pcs
(4) User manual – 1 set
(5) Power cable – 1 pcs
(6) Certificate of Quality – 1 set
Test Procedures
(1) Mount the sock sample securely on the testing mold.
(2) Select the appropriate friction method (Martindale, Schopper, or linear).
(3) Set the friction frequency, stroke, and speed according to test requirements.
(4) Start the testing cycle. The friction head rubs the sock at a constant speed over the designated area.
(5) Observe the sample every 100–500 cycles to monitor for damage or thinning.
(6) Record the total number of cycles until wear occurs.
(7) Analyze the data to determine the sock’s wear resistance and compliance with standards.
Maintenance Information
(1) Keep friction pads and molds clean to maintain accuracy.
(2) Lubricate linear sliders and moving parts periodically.
(3) Inspect the servo motor and electronic components for proper function.
(4) Store the machine in a dry, dust-free environment.
(5) Calibrate the friction head and cycle counter regularly for consistent results.
