Abstract :
This paper describes a garment hanger, which can perform 3 kinds of garment inspection: including visual inspection, tension test and cycle test. Visual inspection is to inspect the garment apparent status, i.e. colour, sewing wire, fitting, size and check against the designated sample. A tension is applied to the fabric of the knitted garment to evaluate the fabric strength. Cycle test is to simulate a profile that a knitted garment is worn on and taken away from a human body for a few hundred times.
