About Twist Tester

The GLOBE Twist Tester consists of a set of clamps, one of which is rotating and the other fixed. The rotating clamp is driven by hand through a hand wheel and gear arrangement. A five-digit re-settable revolution counter counts the number of rotations of the rotating clamp.

The fixed clamp is pivoted on jewel bearings and carries a pendulum arm having a sliding weight to give the desired tension to the yarn. The fixed clamp assembly can be moved over a guide bar for setting the required test length of yarn, which is indicated on a strip scale fixed to the base against a pointer attached to the moving assembly. A viewing plate and a magnifying glass are provided for accurate determination of the end point. A dissecting needle for ascertaining complete removal of twist is supplied as standard accessory with the equipment.

The various components are fixed on a rigid base. The base is finished in shore blue matalic painting, while all other parts are bright chrome plated to give them a corrosion resistant finish.

A motorized version of the tester is also available. It uses a synchroset type motor and a direction-changing switch for selecting proper untwisting direction.

Q: What types of yarn can be tested using this instrument?

A: The tester supports a wide range of yarns including cotton, wool, synthetics, and blended varieties. It accommodates both single and folded yarn specimens, making it suitable for comprehensive textile quality control.

Q: When should calibration be performed on the twist tester?

A: Calibration is supplied with the instrument via a calibration certificate. Routine checks are recommended based on laboratory SOPs or as needed if measurement accuracy is questioned, especially before critical test batches or after extensive use.

Q: Where is this product ideally used?

A: This twist tester is designed for use in textile testing laboratories and industrial manufacturing facilities where precise yarn twist measurement is essential for quality assurance or product development.

Q: What is the process for determining twists per inch in yarn?

A: Secure your yarn, choose the appropriate twist direction, and rotate the handle until the fibers are parallel. The scale provides the number of twists per inch (TPI) or centimeter. Reset and repeat as needed for additional samples.

Q: Can the instrument be used in environments with variable humidity and temperature?

A: Yes, the twist tester operates reliably under typical ambient laboratory conditions of humidity and temperature, ensuring stable and accurate results in standard textile lab settings.

Q: What are the key benefits of using this twist tester for textile quality control?
