Flatbed Ironing Tester
The Flatbed Ironing Tester is a laboratory-grade instrument designed to simulate real-world ironing conditions for evaluating fabric thermal performance. It assesses crease recovery, heat resistance, dimensional stability, shrinkage behavior, and surface appearance changes. Ideal for quality control, production inspection, and textile R&D, it delivers consistent, repeatable, and standard-compliant test results.
Application
(1) Apparel fabrics: cotton, polyester, wool, nylon, spandex, and blends for wrinkle recovery, shrinkage, and heat resistance
(2) Home textiles: bedding, upholstery, curtains, and table linens for heat-setting and surface quality evaluation
(3) Industrial fabrics: automotive interiors, filtration materials, and protective garments
(4) Functional textiles: flame-retardant fabrics, coated fabrics, waterproof/breathable laminates
(5) Laminated materials: PU/PVC synthetic leather, soft-touch coatings, printed laminates
(6) Finished fabrics requiring wrinkle-resistant, shrink-resistant, or heat-set performance
(7) Smart and sensitive textiles: wearable electronics or temperature-adaptive fabrics requiring controlled thermal tests
(8) QC laboratories, inspection institutes, textile mills, and educational institutions for process control
(9) Forensic analysis of heat-damaged textiles and garment care research
Compliance Standards
(1) ISO 3795 — Textiles — Determination of the burning behavior of materials used in apparel and furnishings (for functional and flame-retardant fabrics)
(2) ISO 5077 — Textiles — Determination of dimensional change in washing and drying (for shrinkage assessment)
(3) AATCC TM66 — Wrinkle Recovery of Fabrics: Appearance Method
(4) GB/T 3810-2006 — Flat ironing test for textiles
(5) EN 13591 — Textiles — Determination of crease recovery and heat resistance of apparel and household fabrics
