ASTM D1422 1423 BS 2085 Electric Yarn Twist Meter DIN 53832 ISO 2061 Motorized Yarn Twist Tester
Introduction
This instrument is composed of a control box (with digital display), a tension mechanism, a threading frame, etc. The rotation direction, speed, start and stop of the decoring clamp of the main unit are controlled by the control box. The number of twists tested is displayed as the twist count through photoelectric conversion by the control display box. The spacing of the instrument can be adjusted. During the test, the tension is applied by the vertical pointer-type lever, and the zero position stops automatically using a photoelectric sensor.
Conforming to standards
ASTM D1422/1423, BS 2085, DIN 53832, ISO 2061, IWTO 25-70, GB/T 2543.1-2001/2543.2-2001
Scope of Application
Electric yarn twist meter, capable of measuring the twist of single yarn or stranded yarn, used for determining the twist of cotton, wool, linen, synthetic fibers and other yarns, as well as the uneven twist rate of the yarn and the twist of the plied yarn. It is a fan-arm twist meter, suitable for traditional or non-twist/re-twist testing methods. The test length can reach 50cm/20 inches (for S&Z type twist).
