Abstract A recent model of the Single Fiber Analyzer 3001 (SIFAN3001) was firstly employed to obtain the single wool fiber diameter profiles (S^sub f^FDPs) at multiple orientations. The results showed that using SIFAN3001 to measure fiber diameter at four orientations for 50 single fibers randomly sub-sampled from each mid-side sample can produce average fiber diameter profiles (AS^sub f^FDPs) of fibers within staples. Within the testing regime used, the precision estimates for the total samples were ±1.3 urn for the mean fiber diameter of staples and 1.4 pm for the average fiber diameter of the AS^sub f^FDPs at each scanned step in the diameter profile. The mean diameter ratio ...
