Application of Pilling Tester
The materials that this Pilling Tester can test are cotton, hemp, silk woven fabrics and other textiles, membrane materials, knitted fabrics, woolen textiles, artificial leather, synthetic leather, gloves, labor protection materials, etc.
Smart instrument
This Pilling Tester can be connected through Wi-Fi with the SmarTexLab App installed in the smartphones, then you can set parameters, monitor the test status, and receive equipment warning reminders, replenishment reminders, etc., and share the Martindale test results with one click.
Stable running, reliable testing
The fixture rotates flexibly and the height of the grinding table and specimen fixture is parallel. The machine and the surface of the grinding table have a small jump (less than 0.05mm), all above are more conducive to achieving reliable Martindale test results.
The Appearance of CV210-9
Various test stations and speeds, to meet a variety of requirements.
This Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester is equipped with 3 kinds of trajectories, one is a straight line trajectory, the other two are Lissajous curve, 24mmx24mm (pilling test), 60.5mmx60.5mm (abrasion test), and has a wide selection of test stations: CV210-9 type for 9, 6, 4 stations, CV210-6 and CV210-4 for 6 and 4 test stations separately. All of them can run with 3 speeds, slow (24rpm), normal (47.5rpm), and fast (75rpm), which can be adapted to a wide range of test methods and standards.
Light design, easy to use
Unique designed guide plate, lightweight and space-saving, easy to change accessories and observe the test status.
In addition, the Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester is durable with a precise appearance design and aluminum alloy hard oxidation surface; the trapezoidal chassis is more stable, seven-inch color touch screen is easy to use.
Designed in Germany, quality is our life.
All our textile testing instruments are developed in-house and in cooperation with a team of renowned German industrial designers, which makes our instruments of outstanding quality. 100% source factory and factory price.

Following the Martindale abrasion tester working principle, the test involves placing a fabric specimen in the clamp of the machine. The specimen will then be abraded in a standard Lissajous figure against an abradant, such as leather. As the tester operates on this rubbing motion, it simulates real-world abrasive forces like fabric contacting other surfaces through daily use and cleaning. Once the required abrasion cycles are reached according to test standards or the Martindale abrasion tester protocol, the specimen will be evaluated. If breakage occurs, the cycle number is recorded to calculate the abrasion resistance index. Alternatively, a visual assessment of the fabric pilling and wear rate can be made to determine its durability performance rating.
- Test piece preparation
- Test piece selection
- Test placement
- Placement of wool felt and abradant
- Pressing the abradant on the pressure head
Before calibration, it is necessary to confirm that there are no defects in appearance and electromechanical functions that affect the calibration measurement characteristics……
- Must be regular external cleaning of the instrument as well as cleaning, to ensure the cleanliness of the test instrument
- Regular inspection of the test instrument to see if there are any abnormalities;
- The use of personnel in the process should be used by the correct method of use, not illegal use, so as not to damage the instrument, resulting in shortening the life of the instrument;
- After the test instrument is finished, the personnel should put the instrument away and clean it accordingly to ensure the cleanliness of the instrument.
- In the case of not using the instrument, the power of the instrument should be turned off, and continue to keep the instrument clean.
