James Heal launch innovative new Martindale product range

HEALS will introduce their latest technological innovation in abrasion and pilling testing - the Martindale 900 SeriesTM.

The 900 Series includes the Midi-MartindaleTM Model 905 - an industry first with 5 stations, which, in comparison to other 4-head instruments in the market, gives users the best quality at lower costs to suit their requirements. For higher capacity testing, the 9 station Maxi-MartindaleTM Model 909 has been developed, and is the only 9-head instrument in the market which offers full, comfortable access to all abrading tables from the front – without removing the top plate. Through a user-friendly and ergonomic design, finger grips are incorporated to facilitate (when required) the removal of the top plate.

Other new features include easy change between abrasion, pilling and straight line motions; key pad user interface with audible voice control; low power consumption; easy-to-use software plus a stylish and modern design – making HEAL’S Martindale 900 SeriesTM fit for purpose in any testing laboratory. The 900 Series can be used for a wide variety of applications, including: Fabric Abrasion, Fabric Pilling, Glove Abrasion, Sock Abrasion, Leather (Ball Plate) testing; and is also suitable for wet and high friction tests.

Innovation is at the core of HEAL’S operation, and is what drives new product development to enable them to respond to customer and market needs, as Elliot Rich, HEAL’S Sales Director explains:

“In response to customer demand, we have enhanced and redeveloped our Martindale models and accessories, creating a  new range that combines the best in style, quality and functionality; bringing users to the next level in abrasion and pilling testing. The 900 Series represents HEAL’S latest investment in product design, and reflects our ongoing commitment to moving technology forward to benefit customers worldwide”.
