CTT - Dynamic Elongation Tester
INTRODUCTION
The CTT Elongation test measures the % elongation of the yarn as it is running under constant tension at test speeds up to 360m/min. The CTT Elongation test can provide continuous measurements of more than 21 km of yarn in one hour.
Multiple yarns are used side by side during weaving or knitting and all the yarns are required to have the same elongation level as they are moving. This test shows the true elongation of the yarn when it is moving under constant stress. Improvement in material quality and production efficiency can be achieved by testing yarn elongation before it is used in production.
Windows based, user-friendly software collects the elongation data in real time. At the end of each test, the data is statistically analyzed, saved and ready to be exported to a database.
Operation
Simulates process effects of weaving or knitting and performs dynamic testing at 20 km/hr.
