2.6.4 Airing Zone
• After passing from the padding, fabric is offered time for dye
• Penetration into the fabric core for thick and tightly woven fabric substrates
• Top—5 rollers
• Bottom—6 rollers.
2.6.5 Pre-dryer
• Electrically heated or gas heated option available
• High speed evaporating efficiency which results in quick drying of fabric
• High operational safety and reliability
• Temperature range 650–950 °C
• IR modules to cater to different production requirements
• Immediate heating and cooling desired.
2.6.6 Chamber
There are few major manufacturers of continuous dyeing ranges with E-control technique. Monforts and Bruckener are the major manufacturers while Menzel has also
started manufacturing the same. Some of the Indian machine manufacturers such as
Dhall et al. have also have manufactured these systems, however, their ranges are
only restricted to pad-dry technique.
Chamber of a continuous dyeing range has some desired features, which are as
follows:
• Good insulation to minimise radiation losses
• Good even temperature distribution in the chamber and setting of different
temperatures in separate chambers
• Even distribution of hot air and soft on fabric for even shade
• Dye migration free fabric travel
• Crease free run of fabric in the hot flue
• Easy cleaning and low maintenance
• Moisture management in the chamber—process control and exhaust control
• Low tensions—frequency controlled drives
• Easy fast cleaning in between shade change in hot flue.
Monforts
Major features of chamber used for E—Control technique are,
• Computer-controlled fast cleaning of the Teflon-coated fabric transport rollers.
