After simply loosening the front frame reinforcement the specimen can be inserted into a flexible test table frame. This makes the testing device very effective and space-saving.
The extensive testing and evaluation software LabMaster allows for a flexible parameter entry, the execution of different testing procedures, a graphical representation of measured values, test evaluation, and logging.
The firmness rating Hs are determined independently by the programmed. When the pre-set number of cycles is reached, the test is ended automatically

How long should you test out a mattress?
15 Minutes
Lie Down For At Least 15 Minutes
Experts suggest that you should lie down for a solid 15 minutes on a mattress to test its feel. This gives you ample time to realize the potential of a bed fully and whether it is supporting and contouring your body curves properly or no.
What is mattress testing?
Pressure. To measure pressure (a calculation that's factored into the Overall Score), we lay a mat equipped with 680 sensors over the mattress. A test subject then lies on his or her back, and the sensors record the level of pressure at almost every point where the body comes into contact with the mattress.
