35、ngation 4 Principle A fabric test specimen of specified dimensions is extended at a constant rate to either a specified force or elongation for an agreed number of cycles, and its elasticity determined by measuring certain characteristics. 5 Sampling Fabric samples shall be selected in accordance wi
36、th the product specification. In the absence of a product specification for the fabric the sampling method given in Annex B may be used. 6 Apparatus 6.1 CRE testing machineMetrological confirmation system of the tensile testing machine shall be in accordance with EN ISO 10012. The constant-rate-of-e
37、xtension testing machine shall conform to the following. a) The tensile testing machine shall be provided with the means for indicating or recording the force and elongation values when cycling between gauge length and either a fixed load or fixed extension. Under conditions of use, the accuracy of
38、the apparatus shall be at least class 1 of EN ISO 7500-1. The error of the indicated or recorded maximum force at any point in the range in which the machine is used shall not exceed 1 %, and the error of the indicated or recorded jaw separation shall not exceed 1 mm. b) If recording of force or elo
39、ngation is obtained by means of data acquisition boards and software, the frequency of data collection shall be at least eight per second. c) The machine shall be capable of constant rates of extension including 20 mm to 500 mm per min with an accuracy of 10 %. d) The machine shall be capable of var
40、iable gauge length settings including 100 mm to 250 mm, to an accuracy of 1 mm. e) The clamping or holding devices shall be positioned with the centre in line with the applied force. The machine shall be calibrated with the grips in position and the jaw faces closed, where applicable. The jaws shall
41、 be capable of holding the test specimen without allowing it to slip and designed so that they do not cut or otherwise weaken the test specimen. EN 14704-1:2005 (E) 7Line clamps (for method A) Line clamps, as shown in Figure C.1, shall consist of two jaws, one being of steel plate, the other having
42、a convex 3 mm radius. The line of contact of the jaws shall be perpendicular to the line of increasing force, the clamping faces shall be in the same plane. The line clamp jaws shall not be less than the width of the test specimen and preferable have a width of (70 6) mm. NOTE 1 Significant levels o
43、f work have shown this type of line clamp is the preferred type for elastane / elastodiene containing fabrics as fabric slippage is eliminated. If a fabric slips the elongation values are inaccurate. NOTE 2 Pneumatic operated grips are recommended as hand tightening of manual grips can cause distort
44、ion of the test specimen. The air pressure should be sufficient to prevent slippage but should not cut or otherwise weaken the test specimen. Loop bar assembly (for method B) The loop bar assembly shall be as shown Figures C.2a or C.2b and is typically comprised of two steel bars of circular cross-s
45、ection and the diameter between 4 mm and 8 mm. The specimen is looped over these bars and extended as the bars move apart. The axes of the bars shall be perpendicular to the line of increasing force. The steel bar holders shall have a minimum internal dimension of 80 mm. 6.2 Equipment for cutting te
46、st specimens and for fraying, where applicable to the required dimensions. 6.3 Sewing machine capable of producing a type 301 lockstitch as defined in ISO 4915, furnished with a medium ballpoint needle (90s SUK) and 470 decitex (ticket 75s) polyester core-spun thread. NOTE If there is a risk of dama
47、ge to the fabric a finer needle and corresponding polyester core spun thread can be used. 6.4 Calibrated metal rule graduated in millimetres. 7 Atmosphere for conditioning and testing The atmospheres for preconditioning, conditioning and testing shall be as specified in EN ISO 139 The fabric samples
48、 shall be conditioned for a minimum of 20 h in a tension free state. The prepared specimens shall be conditioned in a tension free state for a further 4 h after preparation, to minimise the effects of handling during preparation. 8 Preparation of test specimens 8.1 General From each laboratory sampl
49、e a set of test specimens shall be cut in the direction(s) of the stretch. A set shall consist of a minimum of five test specimens. In accordance with Annex D, no test specimens shall be cut from within 150 mm of either edge of the laboratory sample. No test specimen taken from the warp direction shall contain the same ends and no test specimen taken from the weft direction shall contain the same picks.
