Bally Leather Flexing Tester

Application of Bally Leather Flexing Tester


Bally Leather Flexing Tester To determine the resistance of a material to cracking or other types of failure at flexing creases. The method is applicable to all flexible materials and in particular leathers, coated fabrics and textiles used in footwear uppers.


Bally Resistance Flexing Tester Feature


The test specimen is folded in half then one end is secured in a clamp. The test specimen is then turned inside out and the free end secured in a second clamp at 90 degrees to the first. The first clamp is repeatedly oscillated through a fixed angle at a defined rate causing the test specimen to flex. At set intervals the number of flexing cycles is recorded and the damage to the test specimen is visually assessed. The test can be carried out with wet or dry test specimens at ambient.


1. What is Bally Leather Flexing Tester?

Bally leather flexing tester is a flexometer to determine resistance of light leathers and their surface finishes to flexing. This leather flexing tester is also used to determine tendency for cracks to form in the creases caused by walking. Except for leather, bally flexometer is applicable to all flexible materials especially for materials used in footwear uppers.


2. Bally Flexing Test Method

Bally flexing tester test method includes ISO 5402, SATRA TM55, DIN 53351, ISO 17694, ASTM D6182, GB/T 3903.41, GB/T 20991 and etc.


3. Bally Leather Flexing Test Procedure

The test specimen is folded in half then one end is secured in a clamp. The test specimen is then turned inside out and the free end secured in a second clamp at 90 degrees to the first. The first clamp is repeatedly oscillated through a fixed flexing angle at a defined rate causing the test specimen to flex. At set intervals the number of flexing cycles is recorded and the damage to the test specimen is visually assessed. The test can be carried out with wet or dry test specimens and at ambient or sub-zero temperatures.


4. Bally Flex Test Result/Report

Depending on the sample and the test environment, the sample must be removed after the specified number of tests to visually observe and record the damage. Except for the routine inspection stage, wet samples must be re-wet after the specified number of tests.


After each test stage is completed, the damage status of the test sample shall be recorded:


No abnormalities or slight creases,

obvious or severe creases,

Slight cracking,

Severe cracking,

Total destruction.


In addition, it is necessary to record whether there is salting-out phenomenon after the bally flexing test, the textile needs to record the number or degree of yarn breakage, and the surface coating records the delamination or delamination phenomenon.


Testing Report:


    Reference test method

    Sample material description

    Dry test or wet test sample

    Test temperature

    Type and severity of each sample at each stage

    Record any deviations from standard methods

How to Hang a Suspended Ceiling From Steel Beams

The suspended ceiling hangs under the roof or floor structure above, hiding ugly mechanical and electrical equipment from the view, while also allowing you to easily reach these equipment as needed.While wooden frames usually support such ceilings, in rooms where metal frames are used instead of traditional wood, you can also hang ceilings from steel beams.Hanging the ceiling from the beam requires you to use a special clip to connect the support line to the beam without compromising its structural integrity.Measure 4 inch down from the bottom of the lowest beam, pipe or pipe in the ceiling space.If you plan to use panel fluorescent lamps in your ceiling, add an additional 2 inch to this measurement.Make a mark on the wall indicating the location of the facade.Set up a laser level to extend the mark you made on the wall to the entire wall length.Draw a chalk line on the wall to mark the position.Mark all four walls repeatedly with chalk lines indicating the height of the ceiling.Instal

Importance of Calibration Service, Material Testing

When it comes to Calibration services, genuine service providers offer full recall system and data sheets for all items calibrated. Service needs to be instrument specific. With the advent of technology, Calibration service has seen a tremendous change and has gone through various phases to get the top quality. Calibration is a great deal for industrial purpose. It makes sure that products are manufactured as per specification. It also checks the competence level of technically valid results. The calibrated measuring instrument helps in checking the quality and valuation of the product. In cases of electronic equipment, it is essential to calibrate instruments to keep a check on quality and performance. Calibration facilitates in improving measurement abilities. Calibration service can be manual or automated.  textile testing equipment manufacturers Material Testing machines are available for a wide variety of industries including materials testers for plastics, textiles, adhesives, fi

Level Measurement Solutions

Makeup water treatment is an important component of steam generation. It is the means to resupply the system with water suitable for boiler and other operations that, was lost in the cycle.The steam generation cycle, level control for the water treatment process is not necessarily about efficiency, but rather, accuracy, reliability and safety, while providing proper inventory management to ensure chemical and makeup water supply meets demand. The focus is on the chemical component of the makeup water treatment since it presents difficulties for level technologies that may work perfectly on non-chemical applications related to the water treatment process or those with limited variations in the contents of the vessel's vapor space. Although important measurements such as ammonia, acid, caustic and other chemical storage tanks are not difficult level applications by any stretch, small nuances in how the vessels are monitored relative to level technology can have a dramatic effect on t
