• The Innovation

    The PhabrOmeter® system, a fabric quality evaluation system, has been developed by Nu Cybertek in California, USA. It measures the “feels and looks”, or so called “sensory perceptions“, of such sheet type fibrous products as paper, woven and knitted fabrics, non-woven, leathers and others, in contact with human skin when in use. Sensory perception has long been considered as one of the most important quality attributes for those products and yet difficult to test using instrument.

    PhabrOmeter® system successfully solved the problem. It not only provides a critical quality assurance method for textile industry, it also offers solutions to other consumer product industries, where product quality relies on sensory evaluation. Further it may shed light on our understanding of relationship between physical stimuli and physiological, psychological and social response.

    The Future of Fabric Hand Quality Control

    The PhabrOmeter® Method

    PhabrOmeter® system consists of an instrument and a software package. The system deploys the pattern recognition theory, by extracting the quality characteristics of the product and connecting them to the human sense, so as to provide fast and reliable quality evaluation results. It fills a very important blank.

  • The PhabrOmeter® System

    PhabrOmeter® system has made available a powerful tool for new and high-end product development for manufacturers; for quality evaluation and pricing policy in trading, and more interestingly, it provides currently absent but critically desired tactile sensory information to facilitate online shopping. PhabrOmeter® system can be used in such a wide range of industries as the textile and clothing, health care, chemical, and automobiles. >>>

    Main Quantified Data Additional test results for product

    Relative Hand Value - Against a reference fabric, an overall fabric performance ranking of a set of fabric samples tested.

    Drape Index - The extraction test is in fact a forced drape so it should be able to describe the fabric dynamic drape behavior. The test results can be used for drape test and comparison.

    Wrinkle Recovery Rate - The difference between two repeat measurements of a given fabric sample after a given time duration will give you the wrinkle recovery information. >>

    Also measuring the following attributes:

    Softness - Compressibility judged by squeezing a crumpled piece of fabric in your hand. >>

    Smoothness - How hard you have to push your fingertip across a fabric surface.

    Stiffness - Any material that is easily bent may be described as flexible, limp, or pliable; stiff and rigid are the antonyms. >>

A Brilliant Tool for Fabric Quality Control

At present the PhabrOmeter® system has gone far beyond the laboratory and is successfully commercialized. In the past a few years, it has been adopted by industry giants from the US, UK, Germany, Belgium, Japan, Australia, Hong Kong and China, with highly positive feedbacks.

It offers clients the ultimate solution for fabric hand assessment and acts as a powerful tool for quality assurance and improvement of your products including

Softness (continue)

The preferred term for high compressibility is soft, and the preferred term for low compressibility is hard.

Smoothness

Surface friction is a surface's resistance to slipping. Surface it can be thought of as how hard you have to push your fingertip to move it across a fabric.

Stiffness (continue)

The preferred ASTM term for high flexibility is pliable; the preferred term for low flexibility is stiff.

Wrinkle Recovery Rate (continue)

Any differences between the corresponding results are indication of the fabric ability to recover from the wrinkles caused in the first test.

Drape Index

The extraction test is in fact a forced drape so it should be able to describe the fabric dynamic drape behavior. The test results for any two or more fabrics can be used for drape comparison.
