ISO 5688 testing instrument
Textiles — Synthetic filament yarns — Test methods for crimp properties of textured yarns
Only selected preview clauses of ISO 5688:2024 were reviewed. The 1 m TXL-IPL-004 variant is auxiliary skein preparation and does not measure crimp. Verify TXL-IPL-007 holder geometry separately; its dry-air chamber is not a Method B water bath. Subsequent test loads, thermal recipes and calculations were unavailable; complete standard conformity is not verified.

FAQ
What is ISO 5688?
ISO 5688 is the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) test standard "Textiles — Synthetic filament yarns — Test methods for crimp properties of textured yarns".
Which instrument is used for ISO 5688 testing?
TXL-IPL-004 is auxiliary skein preparation only, using the 1 m variant; it does not measure crimp. Selected holder requirements were reviewed for TXL-IPL-007; verify delivered geometry separately. Its dry-air system does not imply a Method B water bath. The preview ends at 6.2; subsequent test loads, thermal recipes and calculations remain unavailable.
