Orbitor PILLING & SNAGGING TESTER 516
Orbitor can be used to test both woven and knitted materials. It complies in full with the requirements of EN ISO 12945-1 ‘Textiles - Determination of fabric propensity to surface fuzzing and to pilling – Part 1: Pilling Box Method.’ This standard supersedes BS 5811, which is now withdrawn. In addition to Orbitor, HEALS offer Nu-Martindale and Impulse to fulfil the requirements of Parts 2 and 3 of EN ISO 12945.
