The WYB-300 Area Weight Balance is a precision weighing instrument designed to determine the area weight, real weight and yarn fineness of textiles, fabrics, nonwovens, fleece, paper and similar materials. With a maximum capacity of 30000 g/m² in area weight mode or 300 g in weight mode, it provides a fast and reliable solution for quality control, production checks and material evaluation.
The WYB-300 can measure in several units, including g/m², oz/yd², g and oz. It can also be used to determine yarn and fibre fineness using direct counting systems such as Tex and Denier, as well as indirect counting systems such as Nm and Ne.
Typical Applications
Typical applications include testing woven fabrics, fleece, nonwovens, paper, yarns, fibres and similar materials. It is especially useful in textile production, laboratories, incoming goods inspection, quality control departments and material cost calculation.
Why is it important?
Area weight measurement is important because it helps manufacturers during quality checks and to maintain production specifications, verify material consistency and control costs. By accurately determining the weight per unit area, users can ensure that textile and paper materials meet the required quality standards.
How does it work?
The WYB-300 works by weighing a prepared sample with defined dimensions or length. For area weight measurements, a 100 cm² specimen is required. For yarn counting systems, a 100 m sample is used. The balance then automatically calculates the corresponding measurement value according to the selected mode.
