| Suitable for all fabrics : Cotton – Synthetics – Blends – Denim. Working Widths 1200 – 3200 mm. Various configurations for different applications. Palmer Felt Cylinder diameter 1500/2000/2500 mm with AC Inverter drive. Speed Ranges up to 100 mtrs / min. Maximum shrinkage up to 15 % with 70 Belt. |

| The SWASTIK COMPRESSIVE SHRINKING RANGE SF-Super-Shrink is designed to achieve Shrinking results in accordance with international standards for the dimensional stability of fabrics, for widths up to 3400 mm. Fabric is shrunk between the Rubber Belt and the hot mirror-polished drum by adjusting the belt stretch by acting on the pressure roller, it contracts the fabric between the rubber belt and the mirror finish heated drum and is shrunk. Shrinkage variation is obtained by varying the pressure applied to the rubber belt. To permit the required contraction, the fabric should be properly guided over the belt. Greater the Pressure - higher the shrinkage. Good and even Damping is a prerequisite for achieving required shrinking results. The Palmer unit with high quality Felt enables achievement of excellent finish on the fabric after shrinking. |

Fabric Feeding
|
| with Tension bars and
or a swiveling tension device with or without positive draw nip; cloth
guiders; necessary guide rollers; a measuring / metering roller and a
compensator. The machine can be equipped with a pneumatically operated,
positively driven Unwinding Device with AC Inverter Drive, with stainless
steel Scray for continuous / non stop operations. A light draw Nip is
provided to lay the fabric in the scray. A three rollers pneumatically
operated centering device can be incorporated on request. |
|
 |
|
Damping
|
A multi-stage pump spraying
water at high pressure on to a triangular wire-net creates mist/cloud.
Cloth passes through the center of the mist into the steaming box or J-Box
picking up the required amount of moisture. This gives damping on both
faces of fabric.
SKIER UNIT consists of a steaming compartment in stainless steel
construction, a small draw nip followed by guide rollers to allow steaming
time of between 10 to 30 seconds, depending upon machine speed.
Alternatively, a perforated Stainless Steel Damping cylinder unit is provided for good
steam damping instead of the above system. |
|
Evenising Stenter
|
is equipped with
specially designed small clips for feeding fabric in fully open,
creaseless manner with uniform width. The unit can be shifted backwards on
rails for belt grinding work, when required.
To ensure required shrinkage, a device consisting of a free roll and a
scroll roll is provided to feed the fabric to the Rubber belt unit at the
required position. |
|
 |
|
Shrinking Unit
|
consists of a main
heated and mirror polished Stainless Steel cylinder running in roller
bearings; stainless steel clad / Chrome plated heavy duty Tension Roller,
Pressure Roller and guide rollers running free on bearings. Both the
tension roller and the pressure can be adjusted manually / electrically
with the help of special motors as desired.
Suitably designed mechanically / pneumatically operated rubber belt
squeezing rollers ensure longer life of the belt. Special care is taken to
ensure longer life of squeeze roll bearings.
Rubber Belt Cooling device consists of a water spraying arrangement on
both faces of the rubber belt. Water cooling, filtering and re-circulating
device with help of a ump can be supplied optionally.
Rubber Belt unit is equipped with a dynamically balanced, adjustable belt
grinding roller. The machine can be equipped with a suction device for
dust removal from the belt grinding device on request. |
|
Palmer Unit
|
can be equipped with the
Main Drum of either flanged end or jacketed construction, in different
diameters - 1500 mm, 1800 mm, 1950 mm, 2500 mm and in widths up to 3500
mm. Operating pressure 4-6 bar as may be required. Palmer unit can be
operated in either direction to finish either side of the fabric.
Felt Drying cylinder is of ø 780 mm / 800 mm. For Denim finishing Ranges
with ø 2500 mm Palmer drum and two felt drying cylinders of ø 800 mm are
provided. A suitable woollen / synthetic superfine quality felt ensures
excellent fabric finish. Felt Centering Device is pneumatic / motorized
and tensioning device is mechanically or pneumatically operated.
Hard Chrome plated guide rollers are provided for felt guiding and cloth
guide rollers are in stainless steel. |
|
Cooling Cylinder
|
| One, two or three
stainless steel jacketed cylinders can be fitted for chilled water
circulation to cool the hot fabric as it comes out of the Palmer unit. |
|
Delivery
|
| Unit consists of
Pneumatically operated, AC Inverter controlled positively driven Big
Batching arrangement and a Plaiting device. A stainless steel scray can be
supplied for continuous operation. |
|
 |
|
Automation
|
SWASTIK Shrinking Range can be equipped with Shrinkage Indicator or
Controller as may be required, Machine is provided with two nos. fabric
measuring systems, one after Damping and 2nd one before plaiter, with a
PLC. Shrinkage is measured and controlled by acting on the motor of
pressure roller, which will automatically increase or decrease the
pressure as required.
"Super Shrink" can also be provided with temperature and pressure
controller for steam heated cylinder of rubber belt and palmer, and a
humidity indicator for damping. |
