ABSTRACT

IsoTester Li modules are currently calibrated to values established for USDA/AMS Long/Strong and Short/Weak HVI calibration cottons. HVI-based values are used for Long Fiber Content, UHM (and thus Staple) and LUI (and thus ML). AFIS values are used for Short Fiber Content, indirectly. Performance results for production IsoTester Li modules so calibrated are reported. SFC measurements are maturing to the point of commercial usage, along with well-established LFC measurements.
