Test Procedures
You place the airbag sensors on the mannequin or leg forms.
Dress the garment or hosiery to be tested.
Set measurement parameters and start the test via the touchscreen.
The system records dynamic pressure data as the mannequin simulates different postures or movements.
After the test, you can analyze pressure distribution and variations through the software interface.
Maintenance Information
You should regularly check and calibrate airbag sensors to maintain measurement accuracy.
Clean the sensor surfaces and mannequin forms to prevent contamination.
Inspect mechanical components and caster wheels for smooth operation.
Ensure the touchscreen interface and software are updated and functioning properly for consistent results.
