Midsole Fibreboard Bending Test Machine

G664 mid-sole fiberboard zigzag testing machine Test leather shoes and casual shoes, walking shoes and other travel shoes, mid-sole fiberboard zigzag resistance quality.

One end of the sample of shoe fiberboard material is hung in a weight, and one end is fixed in the fixture is continuously reciprocated to the left and right each bending 90 degrees, testing a certain number of times until the break, the number of breaks to determine the flexion index of the bottom plate, as a basis for comparison and selection of the bottom plate.

Applications

(1)Testing midsole fibreboard of leather shoes, casual shoes, walking shoes, and travel footwear.

(2)Evaluation of fatigue resistance and bending durability of footwear components.

(3)Comparison and selection of midsole materials based on flexion index.

(4)Research and development of footwear midsoles to optimize material performance.

(5)Quality control in shoe manufacturing plants and material suppliers.

(6)Applicable in footwear laboratories and testing centers for component evaluation.

(9)Automatic cycle counting for efficient data acquisition.

(10)Robust construction suitable for repetitive fatigue testing.

Technical Parameters

Accessories

(1)Clamps and weight sets for six stations

(2)Sample holding fixtures

(3)User manual and calibration certificate

Test Procedures

(1)Secure one end of each midsole fibreboard sample in the fixture clamp.

(2)Attach the weight to the free end of the sample.

(3)Set the desired bending speed and angle (90°) using the control panel.

(4)Start the reciprocating bending mechanism.

(5)Monitor the LCD counters to record cycles until sample failure.

(6)Inspect the samples after testing to determine bending durability and calculate the flexion index.

Maintenance Information

(1)Clean the machine and fixtures after each use to remove debris.

(2)Lubricate moving parts periodically to maintain smooth operation.

(3)Inspect electrical connections and control components regularly.

(4)Store in a dry, stable environment to prevent corrosion.

(5)Check clamps and weights for wear and ensure proper attachment before testing.
