Hohenstein Group develops garment compression test

The Hohenstein Group has developed HOSYcan, a new compression testing device for textiles that provides increased information and greater accuracy. HOSYcan allows for accurate compression measurements during movement and measures the interaction between different materials. Combined with data from 3-D scanning, simulated movement profiles provide increased accuracy for specific applications. With HOSYcan, the interaction between individual materials in compression garments can be tested and analyzed in a simple and cost-effective way—both in static and dynamic conditions.
