CROCKMETER-3000: Colorfastness to Rubbing Analyzer
Overview
The CROCKMETER-3000 evaluates colorfastness under dry and wet rubbing per AATCC 8, ISO 105-X12, and GB/T 3920. Ideal for textiles and apparel, it simulates repeated friction to predict dye transfer.
Core Features
- Adjustable Parameters: Configurable load (5–50 N), speed (60–120 rpm), and sample sizes (up to 20 cm²).
- Dual Testing Modes: Dry and wet rubbing with replaceable cloths (cotton, polyester).
- Precision Sensing: Spectrophotometers measure ΔE color change (±0.1 accuracy).
- Environmental Simulation: Humidity chambers (10–95% RH) replicate tropical wear conditions.
Applications
- Apparel: Certify workwear, sportswear, and upholstery fabrics.
- Automotive: Test seat covers and interior textiles.
- Textile Printing: Validate digital and screen-printed durability.
Compliance
AATCC 8, ISO 105-X12, GB/T 3920, EN ISO 105-X12.
Optional Add-Ons
- High-speed cameras (2,000 fps) for micro-stain analysis.
- Multi-station fixtures for parallel testing.
- Customizable abrasive cloths for niche materials.
Conclusion
The CROCKMETER-3000 ensures textiles maintain color integrity under mechanical stress, essential for consumer and industrial applications.
