After weaving, the Denim fabric must be chemically and
mechanically treated to give it a soft and pleasant handle and correct
dimensional stability, both in the warp and the weft, to prevent shrinkage
in subsequent washing.
SWASTIK has recently introduced a continuous Denim De-Sizing and Finishing
Range putting together a Singeing machine - Impregnator - Steamer -
Washing Range - Pre-Drying and Shrinking machine to work as a continuous
line.
The plant can be supplied with different preparation and dosing tanks for
softeners and sensors to visualize and control the shrinkage, control
fabric moisture facilitate the shrinkage of denim and obtain the best
quality and productivity of the plant.
The range is normally equipped with a pneumatically operated positively
driven Unwinding device with a
stainless steel scray for continuous operation at the feed end and a
stainless steel scray with a Big Batching and Plaiting device at the
Delivery end.
Gas Singeing Machine essentially
incorporates Slit type Water Cooled Burners suitable for Natural/Petrol
Gas firing with possibility of penetrating or floating flame; Water cooled
Rollers after the Burner; Brush Rollers positively driven by direct
coupled motors with a Suction device and Exhaust for dust removal. and an
impregnator with a Squeeze Nip for de-sizing chemicals.
The Steamer which follows the
Impregnator is equipped with a Steam Conditioning Unit, Steam Seal at
fabric entry and Water Seal at the outlet. A well insulated Steam Chest is
provided to avoid water condensation. Steamer capacity 30-60-90-120 meters
as may be required.
Washing Tank : Stainless Steel Wash Tank STN-15-STN-20-STN-25, equipped with
AC Invertor Drives are provided to wash the De-sized fabrics. Please refer
individual catalogues for full details.
A Pre-Dryer with an adequate number of
Drying Cylinders with a Heavy Squeezer and a width shrinking device
follows the Washing Range. This is Followed by the Shrinking Range.
