Emtec Electronic measures the Softness of Nonwovens in Hof, Germany

The Nonwoven industry will meet again from November 07th to 08th in Hof, Germany at Hofer Vliesstofftage 2018. The German company emtec Electronic GmbH will be present at the booth with a well-known, but still impressive device.

The TSA Softness Analyzer01 is already used in the tissue, nonwoven and textile industry and gives reliable and objective information about the three basic parameters, which determine the human feeling: the softness, roughness and stiffness. From these three, a hand feel value can be calculated. The availability of the three individual parameters opens a huge amount of chances for the optimization of the production and converting processes as well as in the R&D and trouble shooting.

Included into the softness measurement is the measurement of the viscoelastic, elastic and plastic properties, which are represented by the elasticity, plasticity and hysteresis. With an extra module, the compressibility can be measured.

An expert from emtec Electronic looks forward to welcome you at their booth in Hof, and he would be happy to answer questions and to discuss the advantages of using the TSA. Also, first tests with your own material can be done directly at the booth.
