JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B tester models and their published ranges
The Digital Thickness Gauge (TNG1089) and the Fabric Thickness Tester (TNG1094) both meet the requirements of JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B for fabric thickness measurement.
Specifications and Compliance with JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B
Both the TNG1089 and TNG1094 are designed to comply with JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B, which specifies the procedures for determining the thickness of textiles. The TNG1089, known as the Digital Thickness Gauge, has a measuring accuracy of 0.01mm, which is essential for precise thickness measurements required by the standard. The TNG1094, referred to as the Fabric Thickness Tester (Gauge)/B, also features a measuring accuracy of 0.01mm, ensuring that the results are reliable and consistent with the standard's requirements.
Pressing Foot Area and Load Weight
The TNG1089 and TNG1094 both offer a variety of pressing foot areas, including 100mm², 2000mm², 2500mm², and 10000mm². This range allows for testing different fabric types and thicknesses, which is crucial for adhering to the JIS L1096 standard. Additionally, both instruments provide multiple load weight options, such as 2cN x 2, 5cN x 1, 10cN × 2, 50cN × 2, 100cN x 1, 400cN x 1, and 1000cN × 2. These load weights ensure that the testing conditions can be adjusted to match the specific requirements of the standard, providing accurate and repeatable results.
Pressing Speed and Duration
The TNG1089 and TNG1094 both have a pressing speed of 1.72 mm/s, which aligns with the standard's requirement for controlled and consistent application of pressure during the thickness measurement process. The pressing duration options of 10s and 30s allow for flexibility in testing procedures, ensuring that the measurement is taken under the appropriate conditions specified by JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B. These specifications ensure that the instruments can accurately and reliably measure fabric thickness, meeting the necessary standards for quality control and testing in the textile industry.
