Description

This Part of BS 6246 describes methods of assessing the effects on textiles of shaped-garment finishing machinery; the types of finishing machinery covered by this standard are described in Appendix A.

The standard excludes form-finishing machines, tumbler driers and shaped-article finishing machines designed for other than laundered garments.

The test results provide an indication of a machine effect in terms of energy consumption, output rating of moisture removal and quality of finish achieved on the fabric. The procedure can be employed to assess the effect of shaped-garment finishing machinery on textiles, measurement of aspects of machine performance or to assist in optimizing machine parameters.

The following performance characteristics are evaluated:

energy consumption expressed as units of energy per unit mass of moisture removed and/or as units of energy to process a reference garment;
moisture removal performance expressed as the mass of moisture removed per unit time;
quality of finish imparted to the article by the action of the machine.

NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this British Standard are listed on the inside back cover.

Specifies methods of testing.
