Hexapod Tumbler test machine
The Hexapod Tumbler test machine uses a steel ball with spikes or a hexagonal stand to randomly roll inside a rotating drum, with carpet textile samples laid inside. After testing according to standard requirements, changes in appearance are observed. The rollers of the Hexapod Tumbler test machine use a reciprocating motion principle to provide a more realistic representation of pile conditions, effectively controlling production and verifying product performance.
Applications
Textile Industry: Assesses carpet pile integrity for residential, commercial, and automotive applications.
Quality Control: Validates compliance with international appearance change standards.
Research & Development: Tests material resistance to abrasion, crushing, and pile distortion.
Certification Labs: Provides data for SATRA, ISO, and BSEN certification.
