Abstract

The quality of floor coverings is evaluated according to their resistance to texture deformation. The most important factors affecting the texture deformation of floor coverings are static loads causing the compression of floor coverings, thereby the appearance of floor coverings deteriorated unfavorably. The compressibility and resilience performance of floor covering determine the appearance retention level of pile yarns. There are two types of tests to determine the compressibility and resilience performance of floor coverings namely; thickness loss after prolonged heavy static loading and thickness loss after brief moderate static loading. In this study, it is aimed to design a test system for compressibility and resilience performance measurement of floor coverings. The test system will be capable of automatically applying necessary pressure for both brief moderate static loading and prolonged heavy static loading tests. By providing these two tests and the thickness measurement by a solo device, the test procedures will be achieved automatically.
