Louis Schopper's Textile-Test Bench
A German manufacturer presents specialized instruments for testing textile strength, tearing, bursting, abrasion, and pilling.
Field notes
The catalog divides its equipment by the physical failure or wear being measured: tensile force, tear propagation, burst pressure, abrasion, and pilling. The homepage counts eleven models across five families, including a single-fiber tensile tester and Martindale configurations with nine or twelve testing stations. It names ISO and ASTM procedures and asks prospective buyers to submit the model, material, and required standards for a data sheet and quotation.
