Mercerizing lines
Our chainless mercerising range is suitable for cold as well as hot mercerisation. This range yields the required lustre, colour affinity and appearance. The brilliant feel of the fabric after mercerisation in our machines meets customers’ requirements entirely.
The mercerising range consists of an impregnating zone, a stabilising zone and a lye recuperator. Novel wet-on-wet mercerisation with add-on application of caustic and total dimensional stability with unique stretching zone.
Diffusion compartment with grooved stainless steel rollers for swelling of cotton fabric
Rotary drum filter with circulation pump for caustic recovery
Longitudinal/lateral stretching zone for stretching fabric longitudinally and horizontally
Counter-current washing and pH control
Very limited contact with fabric to avoid width-shrinkage
Indirect heating system for hot mercerisation
Addition of caustic possible for wet fabric
Accelerated diffusion due to higher concentration gradient
Dimensionally stable fabric
Reduction of caustic volume
Drying process minimised for feed fabric
Less residual shrinkage
Significant savings in terms of chemicals, energy, water and time
Less polluting and more eco-friendly
