The KES-FB2-S Pure Bending Tester is capable of measuring hardness and recoverability when bending not only paper and non-woven fabric but also hair and film. Measured values are obtained using a power meter with sensitivity matching that of a fingertip, so results are correlated with sensory evaluations. The device provides accurate measurement even for samples with different processing methods, such as surface treatments and flexible processing. The KES-FB2-S is a multi-purpose pure bending tester that can be used without having to worry about the type of objects being measured.
Features
-
Measure hardness and recoverability when bending paper, non-woven fabric, and cloth through pure bending tests.
-
Measure treatment differences (such as flexible processing surface treatment).
-
Hardness and recovery capabilities when bending can be read instantly, allowing for simple data analysis.
-
The tester obtains values that detect micro areas in suppleness, firmness, and stiffness.
Example of Measurement Samples
- Textile
- Non-woven fabric
