CONTEST-F2 | 3302F

CONTEST-F2 has been developed to automatically measure all relevant fiber data from cotton bales, such as:

It can test both raw cotton and lint.

Test results are independent from operator influence, due to its highly automated operation.

The classing module is calibrated with international standard materials.

Fully automatic.

Easy and intuitive user interface.

Designed, engineered and manufactured in Italy.

The instrument consists of 3 modules:

Module 1 measures all parameters related to the length and strength classification of raw cotton, like upper half mean length, mean length, uniformity index, strength, elongation, short fiber index, moisture, as well as the spinning consistency index;
Module 2 evaluates the color and appearance classification of raw cotton, such as colour grade, Rd, +b, trash count, trash area, and leaf grade;
Module 3 provides a full characterization of the fiber fineness for raw cotton, like micronaire and maturity index, as well as all other properties that can be accessed through a fully cleaned material (lint fiber), such as the lint surface area (mike), maturity ratio, percentage content of mature fibers, fineness, and standard fineness.
