Width Adjustment System

Non lubricated width spindle driven by separate motor

Any desired width can be adjusted automatically for entire machine

from control desk

Digital width indication at the inlet, outlet area and mechanical

width counter meter at each width spindle

Easy maintenance of width spindle is possible as it is located above the

fabric and easily accessed from the roof during operation also

Chain and Track Design

Horizontal Chain

Special long-term lubricated roller bearing chain

(requires lubrication once a year or even later)

Chain with fully encapsulated ball bearings

Available as pin chain, clip chain and combined pin & clip chain design

Pin chain with fabric protection flap can be supplied on request for knitted

fabric

Oil cups totally eliminated hence no possibility of fabric staining & dripping

Individually driven main chain with direct drive for LH & RH side

Steel fabricated track with graphite rail

Special shock absorbers are provided for smooth turning of the chain

Less friction as graphite is self lubricating material

Special chain and track design leads to running speeds up to 150 m / min

Higher cross tension can be applied to fabric compared to traditional chain

Higher fabric stretch is possible

Benefits

Higher speed

Low maintenance

Free from oil spillage

Significant energy saving due to rolling chain and

graphite rail (less friction)

Pin Chain

Clip Pin Chain (Combi)

Track with Combi Chain

Track with Pin Chain

Compact chamber frames with maintenance free width adjustment spindles. Sealed design of chambers with 150mm thick insulation

minimizes the heat loss through radiation, resulting in conservation of energy and increased productivity

Chamber Design

Benefits

Lower energy requirement

Minimal heat losses

Higher evaporation capacity

Lower maintenance and utility cost

Even fabric temperature and treatment

Drawable nozzle system
