XH-1 Fiber Thermal Shrinkage Tester

Product Introduction
The XH-1 Fiber Thermal Shrinkage Tester is a precision instrument developed for measuring the dry heat shrinkage rate of individual synthetic staple fibers. Developed through collaboration between the manufacturer and the Shanghai Lipu Institute of Applied Science and Technology at Donghua University, the tester uses digital measurement technology to provide fast testing and stable, reliable results.
Designed for textile laboratories, synthetic fiber manufacturers, and quality inspection organizations, the XH-1 measures fiber length before and after heating to determine thermal shrinkage. It is intended for testing methods specified in the Chinese textile industry standard FZ/T 50004.

Performance Features
• Digital measurement technology: Supports precise fiber length measurement and shrinkage analysis.
• Wide shrinkage range: Measures thermal shrinkage rates from 0% to 25%.
• High measurement precision: Length measurement precision of ±0.01 mm.
• Reliable results: Thermal shrinkage measurement error of ≤±0.1%.
• Multi-sample holder: Cylinder rack accommodates up to 35 fiber specimens.
• Standardized testing: Designed for dry heat shrinkage testing of individual chemical staple fibers in accordance with FZ/T 50004.
• Compact construction: Bench-top design for textile laboratories and quality control facilities.

Working Principle
The XH-1 measures the initial length of a single fiber specimen held between upper and lower clamps. After the specimen undergoes the specified dry heat treatment, its length is measured again. The instrument calculates the thermal shrinkage rate from the change in length before and after heating.
The digital measurement system supports precise readings and consistent test results, helping users evaluate fiber dimensional stability under dry heat conditions.
