Paper softness tester

This instrument is a testing instrument that simulates the softness of the hand feel. Suitable for measuring the softness of high-end toilet paper, tobacco flakes, fiber fabrics and other materials. The instrument measurement and control system adopts digital circuit technology with a single-chip computer as the core, which has the advantages of advanced technology, complete functions, simple and convenient operation, and is an ideal testing instrument for paper making, scientific research units, and commercial inspection departments.

The paper softness tester strictly follows the standards of GB/T8942 "Determination of Paper Softness" and GBT8942-2016 "Determination of Softness" to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test. The principle is to use a plate shaped measuring head to press the sample into a certain depth into a narrow gap under specified conditions, measure the sum of the bending resistance of the sample itself and the large vector of the friction force between the sample and the gap, in order to determine the flexibility. The smaller the softness value, the softer the sample and the better the feel.

Instructions for use:

1. Place the specimen symmetrically in the specified direction along the slit in the middle of the left and right specimen platens.

2. According to the longitudinal and transverse directions of the sample, press the "Vertical and Horizontal Selection" button to select the direction of the sample.

3. Press the "Test" button on the operation panel, and the instrument will automatically complete a test.

4. Replace the sample and proceed to the next test. For a group of specimens in the same direction (longitudinal or transverse), there is no need to select the transverse direction. Simply press the "Test" button to test.
