Textile Drying Time Tester

Product Overview

The Textile Drying Time Tester is a precision instrument designed to measure the evaporation rate and drying time of textiles under controlled environmental conditions. It evaluates moisture absorption, drying efficiency, and fabric resilience, critical for quality assurance in textile manufacturing and product development.

Type: Environmental testing chamber with humidity/temperature control

Key Metrics:

Drying Time (minutes)

Moisture Content (% by weight)

Evaporation Rate (g/min/m²)

Sample Size: Up to 500×500mm (adjustable clamping frame)

Applications: Textile manufacturing, sportswear R&D, waterproof fabric testing

Compliance Standards

ISO 11092 (Textile evaporative resistance)

ASTM D737 (Air permeability and drying correlation)
