Abstract
The apparatus contains a feed device for the material to be tested, which feed device is formed by a pair of transport rollers (16). Both transport rollers are positively connected to a motor drive. Perfect forward feed of the material is thereby ensured under all conditions and careful treatment of the test material is also ensured, a factor which is particularly advantageous if further measurements are to be carried out on the test material after it has passed through the feed device. As the test material passes through the transport rollers, a traverse motion along the axes of the transport rollers (16) takes place between said rollers and the material to be tested. This ensures very uniform wear on the transport rollers, which in turn ensures smooth forward movement of the material in all circumstances. It also ensures that the path of movement of the thread does not vary during the measuring process.
