A new testing instrument with artificial arm to simulate fabric bagging by human elbow
Fabric bagging which is defined as three-dimensional shape deformation arising during daily usage of garments is an important property that should be considered. In the context of this study, a new testing instrument composed of an artificial arm with elbow joint was designed and produced to simulate fabric bagging under dynamic conditions. This new test instrument was used in conjunction with a bagging height testing device which was also produced in the study. By using the artificial arm produced, bagging load values were obtained for different deformation cycles and bagging height values were measured after deformation. The bagging deformation occurred in dynamic conditions were investigated by using different kinds of woven fabrics with different structures to examine the reliability of the instrument and satisfactory results were obtained.
