Short description
Softometer KWS for measuring the softness of leather, textiles, nonwovens, synthetic leather and foils, cardboard, paper and other flexible materials in quality testing as well as for scientific
Series experiments in research and development.
Since different properties of a material are responsible for its softness, a
Measurement method found, which indicates the material properties that make up the softness. Decisive
is the testing of the bending stiffness.
