BURSTMATIC 338E

BURSTMATIC   338E

Pneumatic bursting tester to determine the bursting resistance of woven and knitted fabrics, non-wovens and cardboard.

The instrument measures the required pressure necessary to burst a tested specimen as well as to measure the specimen extension prior to bursting.

Such test can be carried out in two different ways:

  • Following a specific testing standard already present in the software
  • Free adjustment of testing parameters

Besides, Burstmatic can measure the hysteresis (fatigue cycling tests) as well, the specimen behavior when subject to cycling extensions and relaxations. All settings are freely programmable.

Next to this, on a colour wide touch-screen one can visualize all the testing parameters, statistic results, graphics showing the dynamic behaviour of the tested fabric either during bursting or cycling tests.

All testing parameters, results and graphics can be stored into the Burstmatic database. The sample distension height is measured by means of laser technology.

Possible Tests:

  • Bursting tests using customised settings (freely programmable)
  • Cyclical tests using customised settings
