Pneumatic Bursting Strength Tester with TestWise™ software and a range of bursting strength and fatigue tests suitable for knitted textiles, medical textiles, non-wovens, paper and plastics.
Developed by our sister company, James Heal.
Emperor™ Software
TestWise Touch™
Our designers work closely with our customers and our textile technologists in a working laboratory to produce an intuitive touchscreen interface to make the Martindale easy to control.
The familiar feel of a touchscreen similar to devices used in everyday life makes the different features easy to access, navigation quick and simple, ensuring operators become experts instantly.

TruBurst Pneumatic Bursting Strength Tester with TestWise™ software and a range of bursting strength and fatigue tests suitable for knitted textiles (including elastane), medical textiles, non-wovens, paper and plastics.
Variety of applications
Test a variety of materials including textiles, nonwovens, plastic bags, food packaging, tissues, tin foil and medical products. A specimen is clamped over a diaphragm which is expanded to the point of rupture, or where the dome is filled. TruBurst can test bursting strength to a maximum of 1000 kPa when 10 bar of pressure is supplied and, with TestWise Pro, perform cyclic testing for fatigue evaluation.
Textiles
- Traditional knitted products: e.g., T-Shirts, casual/sportswear with and without Lycra.
- Woven.
- Nonwoven: e.g., wet wipes, cleaning clothes such as J-Cloths.
Medical supplies
- Nonwovens - knee/elbow supports.
- Wound dressings.
- Suture strength.
- Hernia patches.
- Organ patches.
- Animal skin.
- Blister packs.
- Mosquito nets for WHO (World Health Organisation) Technical textiles: e.g., surgical gowns/masks.
Plastics
- Food packaging.
- Bin liners.
- Sacks and various plastic products.
- Vacuum packaging.
Paper and other materials
- Lightweight paper.
- Tin foil.
Accuracy
Non-contact laser distension measurement for accuracy and repeatability of test results.
Five interchangeable domes
With software auto recognition of the dome size. Dome and diaphragm changing is tool-free for faster testing and less downtime.
Pre-programmed standards testing
The TruBurst is a software-controlled instrument, using TestWise Touch or Pro, and developed with programmed test routines to address a wide range of international and proprietary standards, including:
- Adidas® Test Method 4.09
- ASTM D 3786
- ISO 13938-2
- For GBT 7742.2, select ISO 13938-2
- LEVI STRAUSS & CO
- M&S P27 Fabric
- M&S P27 Lace

特点和优点
- TestWise™ software
Complex user-designed tests can be set-up: Burst, Cyclic, Rapid fatigue and Extension & Recovery. Data can also be viewed live and exported to Excel. - Automatic flow control
Substantial time-savings - increased accuracy, consistency and reliability of the results. - Laser distension measurement
Non-contact laser distension measurement ensures pin point accuracy and excellent repeatability of test results. - Tool-free dome change
Five interchangeable domes. Automatic recognition of dome size. Tool free dome change to accelerate testing and minimise downtime. - Diaphragm correction - Software prompts the user to do a diaphragm correction after testing.
- Automatic time to burst
ISO 13938-2 and similar standards - a warning message will be displayed if the specimen does not burst within the specified time.
