The Sock Stretch Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the elongation and elastic recovery of hosiery, swimwear, pantyhose, knitted pants, and other stretchable garments. It measures both longitudinal (vertical) and transverse (horizontal) stretch, providing accurate data on tensile behavior, plastic deformation, and elastic recovery. The system combines a Siemens PLC control unit with ergonomic design and adjustable parameters for reliable, repeatable testing.
Application
The tester is widely used in:
(1) Hosiery and sock manufacturing: evaluating elongation and elasticity performance
(2) Swimwear and activewear production: testing tensile and stretch properties
(3) Knitted garment industry: assessing pantyhose, leggings, and belly pants
(4) Textile R&D: developing new fabrics with desired elasticity and recovery
(5) Quality control laboratories: verifying compliance with garment stretch standards
(6) Third-party testing and certification laboratories: product performance validation
