The Textile Material Feel Style Evaluator is a precision instrument designed to objectively assess the tactile properties of fabrics. By simulating the mechanical touch of human fingertips, the system evaluates softness, stiffness, smoothness, tightness, and overall hand feel. It collects force-displacement data during compressive, bending, frictional, and tensile deformations to generate quantitative indicators for fabric design, production control, and quality assurance.
Developed jointly with Donghua University, the instrument incorporates bionic design principles and patented technology (Patent No.: ZL .2) to provide reliable and reproducible tactile assessment.
Application
The instrument is widely used in:
Textile R&D: Quantifying fabric hand feel for product development.
Quality Control: Monitoring batch-to-batch consistency in textiles.
Apparel and Home Textiles: Assessing fabrics for clothing, bedding, and upholstery.
Nonwoven and Technical Fabrics: Evaluating stiffness and surface smoothness.
Educational and Research Institutions: Studying tactile properties of fibers, yarns, and fabrics.
Regulatory and Standards Organizations: Verifying compliance with hand-feel specifications.
Standards
T/CTES 1017-2019: Textile Hand Feel Evaluation Standard
FZ/T 01171-2023: Chinese Textile Hand Feel Instrument Test Method
ISO 9073-7: Textiles – Nonwovens – Determination of fabric hand properties (analogous international reference)
Features
Bionic Design: Cylindrical indenter simulates human fingertip touch with fine textures resembling fingerprints.
Three-Point Indenter Arrangement: One on top, two on the bottom, mimicking the natural way fingers contact fabric.
Multi-Deformation Analysis: Measures compressive, bending, frictional, and tensile responses.
Quantitative Output: Provides indicators for softness, stiffness, smoothness, tightness, and overall hand feel.
Single-Measurement Multi-Indicator: Evaluates multiple tactile parameters in a single test.
High Precision and Stability: Advanced components ensure reproducible results.
Easy Operation: Simple interface for quick testing with minimal setup.
After-Sales Support: Complete spare parts, prompt technical support, and compliance with updated standards.

Test Procedures
Place the fabric sample on the holder and adjust the indenter position.
Start the test via the control interface; the instrument automatically applies compressive, bending, frictional, and tensile deformations.
Data is recorded for all measured parameters and displayed in real time.
Analyze results using the included software to evaluate fabric hand feel and overall tactile style.
After testing, clean the indenter and sample holder to prevent residue build-up.
Perform periodic calibration to ensure continued accuracy of force measurements and indenter positioning.
