WickView

WickView
Moisture Management Tester

WickView is a state-of-the-art instrument that uses an advanced imaging system to track and record the transfer of moisture through a garment, helping to understand its effectiveness at moisture management and wicking behaviour.
Quotation
VERTICAL & HORIZONTAL TESTING
WickView can be rotated to test specimens both vertically and horizontally, to better replicate how clothes are worn on the body, or how nonwovens are deployed in real life.

IMAGING SYSTEM THAT ANALYSES WICKING
High definition cameras are positioned on either side of the specimen to record the movement of moisture. Regardless of specimen colour or pattern, high definition video and accurate data of both sides of the specimen are recorded throughout the test.

INTUITIVE TESTWISE SOFTWARE
A new version of our user friendly software shows the wicking process in detail, including live capture video of the test, wet region boundary comparison and video playback.

ACCURATE WATER DELIVERY SYSTEM
A smart water delivery system ensures moisture is introduced to specimens in an accurate and controlled way.

EASY ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
Easy analysis includes the option to compare different specimens and load previous results. 9 metrics are measured, including maximum wetted area and wicking speed.
WickView calculates and records results providing the user with an accurate representation of real life, in comparison to existing available testing methods.

By examining the direction, shape, speed and actual wet area of fabric, WickView is accurately measuring how sweat and other liquids behave when in contact with a specimen.
