Seam Fatigue Tester

Model:   S0014



Used predominantly by vehicle seating manufacturers, IDM's Seam Fatigue Tester was designed to test the strength of a sewn seam in a fabric. It operates by lifting a 3kg weight using the sewn fabric as a ‘tow rope’. The 3kg mass is dropped onto a shelf at the end of each stroke and lifted again by the fabric.

The shelf height is adjustable so that the mass can be set down gently without too much jerk. The machine is double-ended and two sets of specimens can be tested at each end.

Features:
• Cycle Speed: 30 per/min
• Stroke: 150mm
• Jaws: 4 x sets 50mm wide
• Pre-determined counter: 4 digits
• Dropping mass: 4 x 3 kg
• Adjustable shelf height
• Double ended, with 4 specimen testing capabilities
• Limit Switch (stops machine if cover is opened)
• Safety cover over moving parts

Standards:
• FLTM BN 106-02
• GMW 3405
• HES D6511-99A
• NES M7081:2006-N
• SES N3298

Portable Foam Compression Tester from IDM

MINIFLEX CLD Why measure foam hardness?   All foamers measure the density of their product. Not all foamers, however, measure foam hardness. Foam hardness has a major influence on the comfort factor of the furniture, bedding or automotive product in which it is used. Variation in hardness is one of the most common complaints from customers. Trying to judge the hardness of a foam sample by hand-feel is almost impossible. Every person will have a different opinion. To ensure consistent Quality Control of foam production, it is necessary to have an industry recognised foam hardness test procedure that will give an accurate, recordable value. The foam industry measures foam hardness by various different tests. These can be grouped as either ILD (Indentation Load Deflection) or CLD (Compression Load Deflection) type tests. The test procedure first measures the thickness of the foam sample (pre-load). It is then compressed 3 times to 30% of its original t

IDM's Crease & Stiffness Tester model C0039 and Cutter model C0016 has been released by IDM Instruments and comes in a new design. IDM’s precision cutter is designed to assist in the easy and accurate cutting of sample specimens for both crease stiffness and bending stiffness (resistance) testing. Benefits of Crease & Stiffness Testers include: ■ Consistency ■ Increased productivity ■ Decrease in waste material ■ Profit growth IDM’s precision cutter is designed to assist in the easy and accurate cutting of sample specimens for both crease stiffness and bending stiffness (resistance) testing. Now available with standard RS232 and software, the IDM Crease and stiffness tester can automatically capture the output of results to a PC where stiffness/crease ratios can be calculated, test results saved, and test reports created and printed. This makes the CST even more easy to use with accurate precision results.
