The MTT690 is an automated tensile tester designed to measure the tensile properties of single hair fibres by stretching them to a specified percentage or to failure. The system is based on a circular sample cassette, which allows the automatic measurement up to 100 pre-mounted fibre samples in either a dry or wet state. Data gathered from tensile measurements can be used to support “strength”, “hydration” and “damage repair” claims.
Key features:
- Automated operation and analysis
- High-throughput with 100 sample rotary cassette
- Additional wet testing capability available
