    Testing Systems for Texture Analysis and Packaging

    Foodstuffs are the raw or processed basic elements of our nourishment. There are animal and vegetable foods.
    
    Animal foods are meat, animal fats, milk, eggs and the foods which are prepared from these e.g. cheese, butter, sausage, canned foods.
    
    Vegetable foods are the grain foods (e.g. the flours and baked goods processed from them), fruit, nuts, vegetables, starchy vegetables (potatoes, soy beans, etc.) and the foods processed from them.
    
    In addition to the foodstuffs, there are also foods eaten only for enjoyment (luxury foods). As opposed to the foodstuffs, these have little or no nourishment value. Some luxury foods are tobacco, coffee, tea, cola and alcoholic beverages.
    
    Foodstuffs have various “material characteristics” depending on their type, consistency, make-up and physical condition. These greatly determine the rheological, the texture and viscosity characteristics of a foodstuff. More...

    Testing Machines & Systems for Textile Materials

    Today, textile materials are among the most important high-tech materials. They are increasingly being used in innovative products. Thanks to the characteristics obtained in complex industrial processes, the range of applications extends from vehicle and aircraft construction, structural and civil engineering, agriculture, environmental engineering, sports and recreation, and medicine on up to pre-production of digital systems. Even traditional household and clothing textiles are being provided with more and more additional functions.
    Zwick has the most modern testing resources and software applications for testing the basic raw materials, semi-finished goods, and finished products in accordance with the respective international and national standards.
    • Tensile Strength
    • Tear Resistance
    • Adhesive Strength
    • Bursting Strength
    • Static Puncture
    • Seam Slippage Resistance
    • Needle Tearing Out Resistance
    • Compression
