GSM Scales and Cutters ExplainedHow Textile Scales work...
A textile scale is not just a scale that happens to weigh textiles. A
true textile scale will display a unit of measure known as GSM (Grams
per Square Meter). What this means is that the scale will weigh a sample
of a known size, and convert the weight of that sample as though the
sample was actually one square meter... This is a creative and clever
way to measure the weight of a fabric without cutting such a large
sample, and wasting so much material. Typically a
GSM Cutter will cut a circle sample of fabric with a 100cm diameter, or similar.
