Description
Digital Washing Fastness Tester – Laundrometer
Digital Washing Fastness Tester for Textile Testing
The Digital Washing Fastness Tester is a laboratory testing instrument widely used for determining the color fastness of textile materials to washing. Also known as a Laundrometer, this testing machine is designed to simulate controlled washing conditions and evaluate how textile colors and dyes respond to washing treatments.
The Digital Washing Fastness Tester is suitable for textile testing laboratories, garment manufacturers, dyeing and finishing units, quality control laboratories, research institutions, and textile testing facilities. It provides controlled testing conditions through a digital temperature indicator and controller, controlled rotation speed, stainless steel test vessels, and water-bath heating.
GlobeTex Industries offers the Digital Washing Fastness Tester Series (Laundrometer) in three configurations: GTX-WF7A, GTX-WF7B, and GTX-WF7C. These models provide different beaker configurations and capacities to meet various textile color fastness testing requirements.
Available Models
The Digital Washing Fastness Tester is available in the following models:
- GTX-WF7A: 8 × 550 ml Beakers
- GTX-WF7B: 4 × 550 ml + 4 × 1200 ml Beakers
- GTX-WF7C: 8 × 550 ml + 8 × 1200 ml Beakers
These configurations allow laboratories to select a suitable Laundrometer according to their testing requirements and the type and quantity of specimens being evaluated.

Working Principle of Laundrometer
The Digital Washing Fastness Tester, or Laundrometer, works by exposing textile test specimens to controlled washing conditions inside test vessels. The test vessels are placed in a heated water bath and rotated at a controlled speed.
The digital temperature controller helps maintain the required test temperature, while the rotation mechanism provides consistent movement of the test vessels. This controlled process helps laboratories evaluate the resistance of textile colors to washing and compare the resulting color change or staining against the applicable testing procedure.
The stainless steel construction of the main bath and outer body provides durability and makes the equipment suitable for regular laboratory use.
