DW5076 Automatic feather and down filling power tester, is used to test the filling power (massic volume), is applicable to finished down and/or feathers, fit for or constituting filled manufactured articles (e.g. anoraks, quilts, etc.)
A test specimen, suitably prepared,having a specified mass is placed in a cylinder and the material is aerated by blowing for a set period. Pressure by way of a platen is then applied to the filling material at a constant speed and after a stipulated time the level of the platen is noted. The massic volume is calculated with regard to the height and the known diameter of the graduate cylinder.
