GESTER Machines For EN388 2016: Protective Gloves Against Mechanical Risks EN 388: 2016 Overview EN 388 is one of the most common European standards for testing protective gloves against mechanical risks in general industry applications. EN 388 includes four performance tests: abrasion resistance, blade cut resistance, tear resistance, and puncture resistance. The performance of the glove is graded in accordance with four or five performance levels. The end user is then able to select a glove with a performance level profile that suits a particular work activity. So for example, a glove could be performance level 4 for abrasion but level 1 for tearing (in European standards the higher the number, the greater the protection). Testing for EN 388: 2016 Sampling and conditioning GESTER Equipment: GT-C52 Programmable Temperature & Humidity Test Chamber Capacity: 80L or 150L (pls choose one) Humidity range: 20%~98% Temperature range: -20~150°C Power Supply: 1∮ AC 220V 50/60HZ Standard Accessories: Operation Video, Certificate of quality, English operation manual. Abrasion Samples are cut from the palm of a glove and rubbed against an abrasive paper using a “Martindale” type abrasion machine. The number of cycles for the samples to hole is measured. The level of protection is expressed in grades 1 to 4 and depends on the number of revolutions required before a hole appears in the material. The higher the number, the better the abrasion resistance. GT-KC13B Martindale Abrasion Tester Conforms to EN388 standard. Testing position: 4 Control mode: PLC control and touchscreen display Standard Accessories: Abrasion Weight and Holder (1Set), Pilling Weight and Holder (1 Set), Standard Abradents Fabric (2 pcs/head), Standard Backing Foam 38mm (60pcs), Standard Woven Felt Discs 140mm (2 pcs/head), Standard Woven Felt Discs 90mm (2 pcs/head), Photographs (Copy one), Sample cutting template (D 38/90/140mm, each 1pc), Pressing Weight (1pc), Bowl shape sample loader (1pc), Steel ball (3pcs), Power line (1pc), English manual, Certificate of quality. Blade Cut Samples are taken from the palm of a glove and the number of cycles to cut through the full thickness of the test sample by a circular rotating blade is recorded. Blade sharpness will vary and is assessed by using the cut test machine to cut through a standard reference fabric. The cut resistance of the glove is based on a relative index that compares the number of cycles to cut through the glove when compared with the standard fabric. Five performance levels are defined in EN 388 ranging from level 1 = Cut index > 1.2 to Level 5 = Cut index > 20. GT-KC29 Safety Glove & Shoe Upper Cutting Tester Stroke: 50 mm Load: 50±0.5 N Specimen holder: 2 sets Circular blade: Diameter 45±0.5mm, Thickness 0.3mm, Cutting angle 30°~35° Max. Cutting Speed: 10 cm/s linear speed Counter: LCD display, 0-99,999,999 Power Supply: AC220V 50/60HZ Standards: EN 388 section 6.2, ISO 20344 section 6.14, GB/T 20991 section 6....

IS 8085 (Part 18) & ISO 22776: Hook and Loop Fasteners Test We use a variety of fasteners throughout our lives, and one of the most notable is the ‘hook and loop’ fastener, also known as Velcro. This simple yet powerful design is used in clothing, footwear and consumer products, but have you ever wondered how strong these Velcro fasteners really are? What kind of force can they withstand to keep items safe and secure? Peel Strength and Shear Strength are two important indicators of the performance of hook and loop fasteners. In this article, we will introduce these two test methods and related standards as well as the applicable equipment in detail. 1. Peel Strength Test 1.1 Definition of Peel Strength Peel strength refers to the anti-peeling ability of hook and loop fasteners in the vertical separation direction, usually expressed in N/mm (Newton/mm). This index reflects the adhesion performance of fasteners under repeated opening and closing or force. 1.2 The peel strength tests described herein are based on the standards IS 8085 (Part 18) / ISO 22777. specifies a test method for determining the peel strength of touch and close fasteners before and after repeated use. Test Method: After bonding the hook side and the hair side, fix it on the tensile machine, peel it off at a constant speed and record the peeling force curve. 2. Shear Strength Test 2.1 Definition of Shear Strength Shear strength refers to the shear resistance of hook and loop fasteners in the direction of parallel force, usually expressed in kPa (kPa). This index reflects the stability of the fastener in the lateral force, such as backpack straps, safety belts and other application scenarios. 2.2 The peel strength tests described herein are based on the standards ISO 22776. ISO 22776 specifies the test methods for the shear strength of hook and loop fasteners. Test method: After bonding the hook surface and the hair surface, apply shear force until separation, and record the maximum shear force. 3. Applicable equipment 3.1 GT-K01 Universal Testing Machine (Dual Column) 1KN KE-23 Pneumatic Grips Application This tester is designed for conducting tensile, compression, bending, shearing, bonding strength, peeling, tearing and other tests for shoes, rubber, plastic, leather, metal, nylon and other materials. This tester is designed for conducting tensile compression, bending, shearing, bonding strength, peeling, tearing and other tests for shoes, rubber, plastic, leather, metal, nylon line, fabric, paper, aviation, packaging, construction, petrifaction, electrician, vehicle and other materials. It is a basic equipment of quality control, receiving inspection, physical test, mechanics research, material development. 3.2 Hook and Loop Fastener Fatigue Tester GT-K19 It is a basic equipment of quality control, receiving inspection, physical test, mechanics research, material development. It is applicable for repeatedly open and close motion for touch and close fasteners. Principle In...
