Determination of Sensations of Fabric – Skin Touch
The FTT measures skin touch comfort objectively and quantitatively in one simple test.
In just a five minute test the FTT measures:
Thickness
Compression
Bending
Roughness
Friction
Thermal Properties
These provide 18 indices for each side of the fabric, in both warp and weft directions.

The comprehensive, sophisticated design of the FTT enables it to measure all the mechanical and surface properties of fabric in one simple test.
Smoothness
Softness
Warmth
Total Hand/Touch Feel

The movement of the upper and lower plates perform different measurements within the multiple modules of:
Thermal-Compression
Surface Friction
Roughness
Bending

Both sides of the L shaped sample are measured in order to provide a total comfort profile

Much as a spectrophotometer is used for color, the FTT can measure, communicate, and compare fabric hand through a global supply chain providing consistency among:

With the QC Software, numeric difference are calculated between samples that can be visualized in a Radar Chart for quick reference
Previously only possible on the very expensive and technically complicated Kawabata instruments, the FTT now makes hand measurement possible for everyone.
