Analysis of Routine Methods for Textile Pilling and Snagging May 11, 2018

In the textile industry, in order to ensure the ultimate quality, some equipment is usually used for inspection, such as whether it will be wear-resistant, etc., among which the prominent pilling problem. GESTER Instrument Equipment Co., Ltd. briefly introduces four kinds of textile pilling test normal method.


Pilling box method: It is mostly used for balling test with wool fabric or wool-like fabric.Overview of the method: The sample is mounted on a cork cylinder liners and it is optionally turned in a wooden box with a constant rotational speed and cork lining. In the absence of agreement or regulation, it is recommended that the woolen fabric be turned 7200 rolls (i.e. 2 hours) and the worsted fabric inverted 14400 rolls (i.e. 4 hours). The test completes the visual description of fluffing and/or pilling performance. Instruments used: Pilling Box, ICI Pilling and Snagging Tester GT-C18


Random Tumble Method: Method Overview: Take three specimens from each laboratory unit. Take the specimens evenly spaced across the width of the laboratory sample or from three different panels in a garment. Specimens should be staggered in such a manner that no two specimens contain the same yarns. Avoid areas with wrinkles and other distortions. Using the random tumble-up pilling box was subjected to random tumble friction for 30 minutes in a cylindrical test chamber covered with a cork liner and filled with a small amount of grey short-lived cotton. The visual evaluation of the pilling performance was made under the specified light source conditions. Instrument used: Random Tumble Pilling Testing Equipment GT-C19A


Compass track method: Method Overview: According to the prescribed method and test parameters, nylon brushes and fabric abrasives or only fabric abrasives are used to frictionally pill the specimens. Take a circular specimen with a diameter of 113mm and the test surface is mounted outward on the chuck. The grinding table is a test method of two materials. The fabric is rubbed with a nylon brush and tested with a standard fabric. After the test is completed, a visual description of the pilling performance is evaluated under the specified light source conditions.Instrument used: Surface Fuzzing and Pilling Tester GT-C16


Martindale Method: Method Overview: Under the specified pressure, the circular sample rubs against the same fabric or standard wool fabric abrasive with the path of the Lisa Ru graphic, and the sample can rotate freely around a central axis perpendicular to the sample plane. After the prescribed friction stage, ratings are visually described.Instrument used: Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B
