VIBROSKOP 500 – Single Fiber Titer – Lenzing

Standardized Laboratory Instrument

VIBROSKOP 500 – Single Fiber Titer is a standardized laboratory instrument for precise determination of titer (linear mass, linear density) in dtex or denier of single staple fibers. Most often used in combination with Vibrodyn 500 and Vibrotex 400, this instrument is standardized according to BISFA, ASTM D1577, and DIN 53812.

Versatile Application

VIBROSKOP 500 is suitable for titer determination of all kinds of fibers, providing reliable and accurate measurements across a wide range of fiber types for comprehensive quality control and research applications.

Easy Handling

VIBROSKOP 500 is “one-button-operated” – the operator simply clamps the fiber and presses a button to start the measurement. Optimization of reproducibility and accuracy is achieved by eliminating any human impact on the measurement process. VIBROSKOP 500 features outstanding accuracy that surpasses standard specifications.

Quick Feedback

Test results are available within seconds, enabling quick reactions to quality levels and possible deviations from set quality standards. This rapid feedback makes the instrument ideal for continuous quality monitoring and process control in production environments.

Advanced Test Method

A pre-tensioned fiber is set into its natural vibration at constant length by an electronic delta impulse. The titer is derived from the fiber’s vibration frequency and automatically calculated, accounting for the applied pre-tension weight. This innovative vibration-based method ensures highly accurate and reproducible results.

Flexible Result Display

Options for displaying measurement results include digital display directly on the instrument and via a connected evaluation unit. The instrument integrates seamlessly with other testing equipment for comprehensive fiber analysis workflows.
