Medical Textiles (PPE)

Protecting the Protectors

Non-woven fabrics used in masks and gowns must not fail during surgery or patient care.

- The Application: Testing the breaking strength of mask ear loops and the tensile strength of protective suit materials.

Comprehensive Textile Testing

The KHT WDL Series is a workhorse for medical textile QC.

- Solution: With Pneumatic Grips, we ensure a firm hold on slippery fabrics without damaging the sample.

- Standard Compliance: The system is ready for ISO 13934 (Tensile properties of fabrics) and EN 14683 (Mask strength), providing essential documentation for CE marking and FDA 510(k) submissions.
