James Heal, test instruments manufacturer, has unveiled its latest model of its TruBurst instrument for testing bursting strength which has unprecedented functionality, enabling an extensive variety of tests to be performed on a wide range of materials.
TruBurst is enhanced by the the TestWise intuitive software, which is available in two versions, ‘TestWise Lite’, which allows test results to be saved to a PC and printed and the advanced ‘TestWise Pro’ which enables access to more advanced features such as cyclic, rapid fatigue, extension, and recovery.James Heal, test instruments manufacturer, has unveiled its latest model of its TruBurst instrument for testing bursting strength which has#
It also allows the creation of user-defined tests, giving the user full control of the test parameters and opening up opportunities for research and development engineers and to laboratories who wish to offer a wider variety of tests, the company informs.
TruBurst is approved by UK retailer Marks and Spencer for applications within the textile sector, to test knitted products such as t-shirts, casualwear, and sportswear. The instrument is also used to test nonwoven materials including the strength of wet wipes and cleaning cloths.
The testing machine is also used in the medical industry for which TruBurst has been used to test the strength of knee and elbow supports, wound dressings, sutures, hernia patches, blister packs plus surgical gowns and masks. TruBurst has also been used to test mosquito nets, used by organisations such as the World Health Organisation.
TestWise Pro gives the user full control over the test parameters enabling user defined tests to be built. Complex exercise, recovery, and fatigue tests can be easily and intuitively created.
Configurable parameters within the software can control the inflation to a certain pressure, to determine the rate at which the inflation occurs and the specific height to which the material is inflated. Burst detection is always active and will finish any test immediately once the material bursts. The time to hold the current inflation pressure or distension can be specified in hours, minutes and seconds.
The James Heal TruBurst instrument will display a warning message if the specimen does not burst within the specified time. If instructed, the instrument will then automatically adjust to the correct pressure rate to give the correct burst time. (GK)
