Developments in Textile Continuous Processing Machineries

Exit section contains,
• Spark extinguishing device
• Beating unit
• Batcher-optional.
Let us see all the sub-assemblies:
Inlet Section
This unit is used for feeding the fabric to the machine in a uniform manner. The
fabric may be plaited, batched on rolls or on horse-back. The fixed bars on infeed
section ensures smooth feed of fabric. The centering device ensures alignment of
fabric with the machine. Dancer ensures uniform tension along the length and width
of fabric.
J-Scray
Is used to store the fabric, which helps in uninterrupted running of machine. It also
helps in detecting weak stitch identification, re-stitching and leader cloth passing
etc. Inverter controlled take up roller is used to convert fabric from batch to Jscray. Compensator equipped with load cell is used to ensure even fabric tension by
adjusting speed of take up roller and stopping the machine when fabric exits (Fig. 7).
Beating and Brushing Unit
It is also called as Vibra plus. Main function of the unit is to pre-cleaning of fabric.
The fabric passes between driven brushing and beating rollers. The cloth runs from
top to bottom, while cleaning brushes rotates in opposite direction. Action of beaters
remove the dust particles. This removed dust is collected in a cyclone dust collector
(Fig. 8).
Cyclone Dust Collector
The exhaust air passes through the system from top to bottom. Flying dust, fibre
residues and lints are removed by brushes, is effectively sucked away via bottom
ducts to entire width. The contaminated air from pre-cleaning chamber is passed
into the cotton bag, so that dust is settled into the bags and normal air goes out. This
system prevents contamination of outside air (Fig. 9).
Singeing Unit
This unit is a heart of the machine. The recent features of the singeing unit give
various advantages over earlier machines such as,
