Whole shoe breathability and heat preservation testing machine

Main uses:

The whole shoe air permeability and heat preservation performance testing machine is mainly used to evaluate the air permeability and heat preservation performance of shoes. By simulating the state of the human foot in different environments, the device can measure the aeration rate and insulation effect of the moss under specific conditions, thereby helping manufacturers and designers understand the performance of the product and improve and optimize accordingly.

1. Evaluate the permeability of shoes: permeability is one of the important factors affecting the comfort of shoes. By measuring the rate at which the shoe breathes under a certain pressure difference, the breathability of the shoe can be assessed to ensure that the shoe can maintain adequate air circulation and reduce the feeling of wet and stuffy feet.

2. Evaluate your shoes' thermal insulation performance: Thermal insulation performance is the key to keeping your feet warm in cold environments. By measuring the thermal resistance and wet resistance of the shoes at a certain temperature, the thermal insulation effect of the shoes can be evaluated to ensure that the shoes can effectively block the intrusion of cold air from the outside world and keep the feet warm.

3. Quality control: In the footwear production process, the equipment can be used to detect the manufacturing quality of shoes to ensure that the product meets the design specifications and quality standards. By comparing the air permeability and insulation performance of different batches or different manufacturers, potential quality problems can be discovered in time and improved and optimized.

4. Product development: In the development process of footwear products, the equipment can be used to test the impact of different materials, structures and designs on air permeability and thermal insulation performance. This helps designers optimize product design, improve product comfort and thermal performance.

Applicable standards:

The testing of the whole shoe breathability and thermal insulation performance tester should follow the relevant industry standards or specifications to ensure the accuracy and comparability of the test results. Here are some common applicable standards:

GB/T 33393-2023: This standard is edited by the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Footwear and will be officially implemented on July 1, 2024. It replaces the previous GB/T 33393-2016 standard and provides a standard basis for the heat and humidity comfort of the whole shoe. The standard specifies in detail the test methods, test equipment and test conditions for the air permeability and heat preservation performance of the whole shoe.

SATRA related specifications :SATRA（British Footwear Technical Research Association） has also developed a series of relevant specifications to evaluate the comfort of shoes, such as SATRATM 376 "Sweat Management Test", SATRA TM386 "whole shoe insulation Test", SATRATM 436 "Whole shoe heat and resistance level test", etc. These specifications provide an important reference for the testing of the whole shoe breathability and thermal insulation performance testing machine.

In practical applications, the tester should choose the appropriate test standard according to the specific needs and product characteristics, and follow the test methods and conditions specified in the standard for testing. At the same time, the tester should also regularly calibrate and maintain the test equipment to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test results.
