In the production of staple fibre- or filament yarns, as well as in twisting or texturizing operations, quality control serves to secure material properties. Which ensure trouble-free downstream processing as well as flawless final products. On the other hand, by routine testing of yarns it is possible to recognize faults in the production process early enough to analyze the causes of such defects and to take corrective actions.

The STATIMAT DS represents the perfect testing solution for the most important yarn quality parameters. Tenacity, count, evenness* and hairiness*. All of them integrated in one instrument. The individual tests on each package presented by the 24 positions package changer are performed in succession without any operator interference.

The application range of the STATIMAT DS can be extended by using interchangeable load cells with a force-measuring range up to 1.500 N as well as other sample holders for tensile tests on fabrics, yarn skeins or cohesion force tests on slivers and rovings.

The methods used for the STATIMAT DS follow standardized procedures based on these standards. ISO 2062, ASTM D2256, ISO 16549, ISO 2060 and ASTM D6587.

Textechno also offers a range of other STATIMAT devices. Each designed to test different typed of materials according to specific testing requirements. STATIMAT 4U, STATIMAT ME+ and STATIMAT MEL+.
