The Coated Fabric Flexing Resistance Testing Machine evaluates the flexing resistance of coated fabrics by winding fabric strips into cylindrical samples and placing them between two rotating cylinders. One cylinder reciprocates along its axis to compress and relax the fabric tube, simulating repeated folding and bending until the preset cycle count is reached or the sample fails. This provides critical data on the durability and mechanical performance of coated fabrics under repeated stress.
(1) Testing coated fabrics for upholstery in furniture and automotive interiors.
(2) Evaluating protective clothing materials such as PVC-coated or PU-coated fabrics.
(3) Quality control for outdoor gear including tents, backpacks, and tarpaulins.
(4) Assessment of industrial textiles like conveyor belts, protective covers, and chemical-resistant coatings.
(5) R&D for high-durability laminated fabrics, synthetic leather, and decorative coatings.
(6) Testing medical textiles such as coated bed sheets, surgical drapes, and protective garments.
(7) Evaluation of fashion and apparel coated fabrics for performance under bending and folding stress.
(1) ISO 7854 – Coated fabrics — Determination of resistance to flexing (dynamic method)
(2) GB/T 12586-B – Coated fabrics — Flexing endurance test
(3) BS 3424:9 – British standard for coated fabric flexing resistance
(4) ASTM D2097 – Standard test method for tearing strength of coated fabrics
(5) JIS L1096 – Japanese standard for coated fabric mechanical performance
(6) EN 1421 – European standard for PVC-coated fabrics — Flexing resistance
(7) ISO 5470-2 – Rubber- or polymer-coated textiles — Determination of abrasion and flexing properties
(1) Precise motor control system ensures consistent cylinder rotation and reciprocation.
(2) Cam-driven mechanism guarantees stable performance during prolonged test cycles.
(3) Imported precision guide rails enhance durability and reduce wear.
(4) Compact laboratory-friendly design.
(5) Easy operation with adjustable cycle counts for different fabric types.

(1) Cut fabric strips to the specified sample dimensions.
(2) Wind each strip into a cylindrical shape and secure in the clamps.
(3) Set the number of flexing cycles or allow the machine to run until sample failure.
(4) Start the machine and monitor the test.
(5) Record the number of completed cycles and any visible fabric damage.
(6) Analyze results to assess fabric flexing resistance and durability.
(1) Regularly clean guide rails, clamps, and cylinder surfaces to remove dust and debris.
(2) Lubricate moving components following manufacturer guidelines.
(3) Periodically verify cylinder alignment and rotation speed calibration.
(4) Ensure the motor and electrical components are free from moisture.
(5) Store the instrument in a dry, temperature-controlled environment when not in use.
