FULL SHOE FLEX TESTER
The shoe flex tester is used for determination of the ability of the full shoe to withstand the effect of flexing stresses produced on the different parts of the shoe.
The Flex Tester simulates the effect of actual walking action on the shoe. The test specimen is held rigidly at the toe portion using a suitable toe last and clamp, while the heel portion has a separate last on which the shoe is firmly tied as in actual use.
A pre-set type digital counter with key reset and memory backup is provided to record the total number of test cycles and to stop the motor automatically after pre-set number of test cycles.
