Textile Testing Instruments-ICI Pilling & Snagging Tester Maintenance

ICI pilling and snagging tester is specially designed for textile pilling resistance in the normal condition. It is equipped with 4 testing rollers (covered by materials to be tested), the pilling ball is made of tungsten carbide and controlled by preset electronic counter. There are several quick-wear parts that we should pay attention to and extend textile testing instruments life.

A. Cork Liner Material for Textile Testing 

As a type of consumptive material, cork is not seen as a major changing factor; however, long time friction makes it polished which may affect the testing. We should change cork liner materials in time based on the following steps:

1.     The four screws out of the tester are together with four blocks which should be abandoned;

2.     Change new liners and fix them by screws; 
B.  ICI Pilling and Snagging Testing Instrument Cleaning

1.     It is necessary before each testing since it can ensure all flush and rags abandoned.

2.     Clean the cork liner at a period time to avoid its pollution.

3.     Choose proper detergent for cleaning such as methyl chloroform. Only small amount is ok.

C. Textile Testing Instruments-ICI Pilling Tester Calibration

1. It is suggested that the grade of reference fabric which is between 1-2 and 4-5 should be used for calibration;
2. These reference fabric should be used for testing the newly installed testers.

3. Retest the reference fabrics every 6 months and compare them with the original data.
