Industrial laundry machinery -- Methods for the assessment of the effect of shaped garment finishing machinery on textiles
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:
