The Martindale Tester GT-C13 is a precision-engineered instrument designed to evaluate the abrasion resistance and pilling propensity of various textile fabrics. This upgraded model is essential for quality control and R&D in apparel, upholstery, technical textiles, and home furnishing industries.
This GT-KC13B Martindale Abrasion Tester measures the wear and abrasion resistance of footwear vamps, natural leather, rubber outsoles, and upper textiles. It drives specimens against a standard abradant in a precise 60mm x 60mm Lissajous motion path at a regulated speed of 47.5 ± 2.5 r/min. Available in 4, 6, 8, and 9 working stations, it features an intelligent PLC touch screen and interchangeable standard weights supporting 9kPa and 12kPa nominal pressures. A unique quick-release system allows technicians to extract individual sample holders for evaluation without halting other active stations or lifting the top plate. It fully complies with ISO 20344, ASTM D4966, ISO 12947, and SATRA TM31.
The GESTER GT-KC01-1 Veslic Rub Fastness Tester is a benchtop laboratory instrument designed to measure the color fastness and surface wear resistance of leather, footwear uppers, synthetic materials, and coated fabrics. It evaluates finish damage, color transfer, and surface breakdown under regulated cyclic rubbing with standard wool felt in both dry and wet conditions. Compliant with ISO 11640, DIN 4843, and EN ISO 20344, the GT-KC01-1 provides precise, reproducible quality control data for leather tanneries, footwear manufacturers, and automotive interior laboratories.
The GESTER Taber Abrasion Tester GT-C14A is a compact, single-station rotary platform abrasion tester engineered to evaluate the surface wear resistance of materials. It drives two calibrated abrasive wheels against a rotating sample to create an X-pattern path, perfectly simulating multi-directional friction. It is highly cost-effective for quality control labs testing footwear rubber, leathers, textiles, and plastics under international standards like ASTM D4060, ASTM D3884 and ISO 5470-1, ect.
The GESTER GT-KC01 Veslic Rub Fastness Tester is a robust physical testing machine designed to measure the rub color fastness, surface abrasion resistance, and finish adhesion of natural leathers, footwear uppers, synthetic materials, and coated fabrics. As a leading leather testing machine manufacturer supplier, GESTER engineers the GT-KC01 to operate strictly in accordance with ISO 11640, SATRA PM 173, and EN ISO 20344. The machine subjects pre-tensioned specimens to controlled reciprocating linear friction using standardized white wool felt pads under regulated contact loads. It serves as a classic, durable quality control solution for leather tanneries, footwear QC laboratories, and commercial testing facilities worldwide.
The GESTER GT-KB03 DIN Abrasion Tester is a specialized laboratory testing instrument engineered to evaluate the wear resistance and volumetric loss of vulcanized rubber, elastomers, footwear outsoles, conveyor belts, and polymer compounds. By pressing a cylindrical specimen against a rotating drum covered with standard P60 grit abrasive paper under a controlled load, the GT-KB03 simulates continuous abrasive surface contact. Fully compliant with ISO 4649, ASTM D5963, and DIN 53516, this equipment provides essential quantitative data for material R&D, quality control, and international standard certification.
Wyzenbeek or Oscillatory Abrasion Tester used for abrasion resistance of textile, leather and imitation leather, and can be reference as improving products quality.
The GESTER GT-KC01-2 IULTCS & Veslic Tester is a high-efficiency laboratory testing instrument engineered to assess the rubbing color fastness and surface durability of natural leather, synthetic leather, plastics, and coated textiles. Featuring two independent testing stations, the iultcs veslic rub fastness tester allows laboratory technicians to perform simultaneous dry and wet rubbing fastness tests or run parallel sample evaluations, effectively doubling testing throughput. Fully compliant with ISO 11640, SATRA PM 173, and EN ISO 20344, the instrument evaluates finish adhesion, color bleeding, and surface degradation under controlled cyclic pressure using standard white wool felt pads. It is widely used in commercial testing laboratories, tannery R&D centers, footwear manufacturing facilities, and automotive trim production lines.
