Paper Softness Tester ZRD-T1
The ZRD-T1 Paper Softness Tester is a device designed to objectively measure the softness of paper products, such as tissues, toilet paper, or specialty papers. Softness is a complex tactile property influenced by factors like surface smoothness, flexibility, and bulk compressibility. It is widely used in industries such as tissue manufacturing, hygiene product development, textiles, and packaging to ensure compliance with quality standards and end-user comfort requirements. This test instrument conforms to many national and international standards: ASTM D2923: Standard Test Method for Rigidity of Paper – Measures bending resistance to determine stiffness. ASTM D6828: Standard Test Method for Stiffness of Nonwoven Fabrics – Evaluates drape and flexibility in materials like medical textiles or wipes. TAPPI T498: Bending Resistance of Paper (Gurley Method) – Quantifies resistance to bending forces, inversely related to softness. GB/T 8942: Chinese Standard for Softness Testing of Household Paper – Aligns with consumer expectations for tissue and toilet paper tactile quality. ISO 12625-9: Softness Evaluation of Tissue Products (optional add-on).

Sample Pretreatment For Optical Emission Spectrometry
Samples are taken from molten metal, thin sheet, semi-complete or complete products. When sampling molten metal with a ladle, small quantities of molten metal are poured into a casting mold. Unnecessary parts of the sample are removed using a grinder or a cutter. As particles from a grinder may contaminate the surface of the sample, a lathe or milling machine is used (not a grinder) to cut soft samples such as white metal. If trace elements are not being investigated, a grinder or belt sander can be used. However, to minimize contamination, the grinding wheel or belt should be changed for each sample. Samples excised from semi-complete or complete products must be at least 12 mm in diameter. Small rod-shaped samples can be analyzed using special equipment.

Static Constant Loading Tester
Static Constant Loading Tester is mainly used to determine the resistance to the axial static constant load of plastic manhole. A constant force is steadily loaded on the axial direction of the manhole for the specified time, when the test is finished, observing the sample appearance (deformation, collapse, crack or crazing), determine the deformation in axial direction and calculate the deformation ratio of manhole. The machine is also suitable for ring stiffness test, flattening test, ring softness test of thermoplastic pipes.

Tire Durometer
Model 2100
Tire hardness can be a critical factor in setting up a race car. A tire that's too hard may sacrifice traction, while a tire that's too soft may give great traction but wear too quickly, and an unmatched set of tires may result in an ill handling car. To properly set up a car, a measure of tire hardness is necessary, and the easiest and most cost-effective way to obtain such a measure is to use a durometer.
