The Footwear Dynamic Waterproof Tester is designed to evaluate the waterproof performance of finished shoes under dynamic, flexing conditions. By simulating walking and repeated bending in a controlled water environment, the instrument measures either the number of cycles until water penetration occurs or the area of water ingress after a set number of cycles. This allows for a realistic assessment of footwear permeability and waterproof resistance.
Applications
(1)Testing finished shoes for dynamic waterproof performance under walking simulation.
(2)Evaluation of outdoor footwear, sports shoes, hiking shoes, and casual shoes.
(3)Assessment of rubber boots, insulated winter footwear, and protective work shoes.
(4)Quality control in footwear manufacturing for water-resistant shoes.
(5)Research and development of new shoe materials with improved waterproofing.
(6)Verification of compliance with national and industry waterproof standards.
(7)Inspection of finished shoe prototypes for functional performance.
Standards
(1)GB/T 16641 — Testing Method for Waterproof Performance of Footwear under Dynamic Conditions
(2)SATRA TM77 — Flexing Machine – Water Penetration Test for Footwear
(3)EN ISO 20344 — Personal Protective Equipment — Test Methods for Footwear
(4)ASTM F1670 — Standard Test Method for Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Synthetic Blood (adapted methodology for water penetration)
(5)ASTM F2912 — Standard Test Method for Water Penetration of Footwear
(6)ISO 20344:2011 — Footwear — Test Methods for Evaluating Performance of Finished Footwear
(7)DIN 33502 — Testing of Footwear for Waterproofing Properties
(8)BS 7979 — Specification for Water Penetration Resistance of Footwear
(9)AATCC TM 127 — Water Resistance: Hydrostatic Pressure Test (adapted for footwear materials)
Product Features
(1)Simulates walking flex with adjustable bending angles and speeds.
(2)Measures dynamic waterproof performance quantitatively, based on cycles to water penetration or penetration area.
(3)Multiple testing stations to allow simultaneous testing of a pair of shoes.
(4)Integrated counter tracks the number of flexing cycles accurately.
(5)Adjustable zigzag angle (5–60°) to match different shoe types.
(6)Variable zigzag speed (5–150 cycles/min) for diverse testing requirements.
(7)Durable construction suitable for wet testing environments.
(8)Touch screen interface for cycle counting and parameter setting.
(9)Water tank with controlled depth and dyed water for clear visualization of water penetration.
(10)Compatible with various types of finished footwear, including sports, casual, and protective shoes.
