DELTA 100 - Single Fiber Abrasion

No ACF gallery field data found

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Understanding single fibre abrasion under wet conditions is key to predicting fibrillation, processing performance, and the feel of the finished product. DELTA 100 measures these properties by rotating a shaft—covered with either a viscose sleeve or sandblasted metal—while continuously applying water. Axial movement of the shaft prevents groove formation, ensuring consistent testing. The instrument calculates abrasion by recording the number of revolutions until fibre breakage, with results adjusted for fibre titer and displayed clearly in dedicated software. Up to 20 fibres can be tested simultaneously, and the fully automated process delivers reproducible results without operator influence.

TEST METHOD

The single fibers are clamped over a rotating and constantly moistened shaft with a defined angle and a titer-dependent pretension weight. The wet abrasion level is determined by the number of revolutions at which the fiber breaks.

BENEFITS

  • Fully automatic
    After sample positioning, testing takes place automatically without any further interference by the operator. Therewith, efficient and objective testing is achieved with reliable and reproducible test results.
  • Multi-fiber testing
    Up to 20 single fibers are tested simultaneously in one test run.
    Easy and comfortable sample positioning by means of pretension weights and adjustable scrubbing angle.
  • Well-proven
    DELTA 100 fulfils the requirements of fiber producers for abrasion testing.
