Garn Twist Tester

The Yarn Twist Tester is a precision instrument designed to measure the twist of various types of yarns and evaluate their related technical parameters. It is widely used in textile laboratories, quality control, and research and development to ensure the performance and consistency of yarns for knitting, weaving, and industrial applications. The instrument supports multiple test methods and provides accurate data output for analysis.

Anwendungen

(1) Quality control in yarn manufacturing, including single yarns, ply yarns, cotton, wool, silk, and synthetic fibers.

(2) Research and development of new yarn types for knitting, weaving, and industrial textile products.

(3) Laboratory testing for yarns used in fabrics, carpets, and technical textiles.

(4) Evaluation of yarn characteristics for sewing threads, embroidery threads, and high-performance industrial yarns.

(5) Testing yarns for sportswear, home textiles, and medical textiles to ensure consistent twist and performance.

(6) Educational and research purposes in textile engineering programs and laboratories.
