JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B: testing scope and instrument selection

Compliance with JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B The instruments described below are designed to meet the requirements of JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B, which specifies the procedures for determining the thickness of textile materials. These instruments ensure accurate and repeatable measurements, supporting the standard's emphasis on precision and consistency in testing.

Instrument Specifications and Their Role in Testing The Digital Thickness Gauge (Model No. TNG1089) and the Fabric Thickness Tester (Gauge) /B (Model No. TNG1094) are both designed for fineness, thickness, length, and density testing. These models are specifically tailored to meet the rigorous requirements of JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B. The Digital Thickness Gauge has a measuring accuracy of 0.01mm, which is critical for ensuring that the thickness measurements are precise enough to meet the standard's specifications. Additionally, the lowering speed of the pressing foot is set at 1.72 mm/s, which helps maintain consistent pressure application during testing, reducing variability in results. This speed is calibrated to align with the standard's methodology, ensuring that the test conditions are uniform and repeatable. The Fabric Thickness Tester (Gauge) /B also features a measuring accuracy of 0.01mm, providing the same level of precision as the. The area of the pressing foot is available in multiple sizes: 100mm², 2000mm², 2500mm², and 10000mm², allowing for testing under different contact areas. This flexibility is important for assessing how the material responds to varying pressures, which is a key aspect of JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B.

Load Weight and Pressing Duration Both instruments offer a range of load weights: 2cN x 2, 5cN x 1, 10cN × 2, 50cN × 2, 100cN x 1, 400cN x 1, and 1000cN × 2. This variety allows users to select the appropriate load for different material types, ensuring that the test conditions are suitable for the specific material being evaluated. The pressing duration is set at 10s or 30s, which is in line with the standard's requirement for a controlled time period during which the pressure is applied. This ensures that the measurement is taken under consistent and standardized conditions.

Conclusion The Digital Thickness Gauge (Model No. TNG1089) and the Fabric Thickness Tester (Gauge) /B (Model No. TNG1094) are designed to meet the specifications of JIS L1096 Item 8.4 Method B. Their precise measuring accuracy, controlled pressing speed, adjustable pressing foot area, and standardized load weights and pressing durations ensure that the testing process is both accurate and repeatable, supporting the standard's requirements for reliable thickness measurement.
