The Vamp Flexing Tester is an instrument that tests the wet and dry flex resistance of leather, used in various products. Any leather with a thickness below 3.0 mm is applicable and can be tested in a vamp flexing tester. This instrument is used to determine the bent a material can endure till the time of cracking or creasing. Vamp Flex Method includes ISO 5402-2, ISO 5423, ISO 22288 etc. It can also be used to examine whether the leather is likely to produce salt spur.
How does the Vamp Flexing Tester Operate?
A vamp flex tester operates by attaching the shoe in place and repeatedly bending and flexing the vamp (the front part of the shoe covering the toes) to determine the stresses the product may endure during walking or running. By replicating various real-life situations the tester flexes the shoe at a specified angle, speed, and frequency to test its quality flexibility and point of damage. This flexing cycle continues till the time the material shows any signs of cracking or separation. It helps manufacturers determine the performance of the shoe’s upper materials, ensuring they can endure and tolerate everyday wear and tear.
