Circular Locus Tester
TF225
TESTEX Testing Equipment Systems Ltd.
Circular Locus Tester, to determine surface deterioration and quality of fabrics (wool, chemical fiber, mixed, kitted and woven fabrics). Using an active friction system, fabric is rubbed against a nylon brush and abrasive or an abrasive only under controlled conditions. Results of the test are achieved in minutes. The relative motion of the locus specimen grip and the abrasive platform is a circle with a relative speed of 60+/-1 r/min. The grip offers pressure to the specimen which is adjustable with a tolerance of +/-1%. For added control and safety, the machine is equipped with a self-stop switch.

Pyro Drying Oven
Hurricane Series
The Gruenberg Hurricane Oven Series utilizes a pair of non-sparking blowers to provide a patent-pending ignition-free heating method. One blower circulates the airflow in the oven while a second blower generates heat using “fan friction.” This heat source is by nature ignition free and it can be independently modulated without affecting the circulation air flow rate. The Hurricane Oven series is ideal for applications involving a wide range of hazardous materials, including flammable solvents and dusts that may be encountered in drying, curing and finishing applications. It is also designed with the capability to be used with programmable ramp and soak controllers.
