At the upcoming Techtextil exhibition for technical textiles and nonwovens to take place this May in Frankfurt, Thies Textilmaschinen will highlight its latest trends and innovations. The manufacturer has specially designed machines iCone that can be used for a wide variety of fibres, nonwovens, yarns and fabrics suitable for a range of technical textile applications.
The company’s iCone technique bleaches and dyes fibres, flakes, yarns, cables and belts. According to the company, it also enables dyeing in short liquor. Obtaining uniform dyeing and the required fastness is self-evident. Using special energy-efficient functions the iCone is able to dye in a more cost effective and eco-friendly way..
Cellulose fibres for medical purposes or any other substrate, such as polyester, acrylic and polyamide, may be used. The process can be used in the treatment of sewing threads, the dyeing and bleaching of yarns for the production of solar sails, tents, awnings and the finishing of flame-retardant yarns.
The HT-Jigger is used for dyeing fabrics, nonwovens or space fabrics. The HT-Jigger offers step less tension and speed control combined with an economical dye trough. It has been designed to offer uniform dyeing in very short liquor ratios.
Suitable to process textiles at temperatures up to 143C, the HT-Jigger is recommended for the treatment of crease sensitive, permeable and non-permeable fabrics; to offer optimum flexibility for finishing of all modern fibres.
This machine concept is ideal for all fabric applications where water consumption is an important consideration, together with other possible energy savings including steam, electricity plus chemicals and dyestuffs, the manufacturer reports. According to the company, the iMaster Hâ‚‚O dyeing machine is proving successful with several automotive fabric producers.
The system features a transport winch inside the kier, allowing cotton, synthetic fibres and their blends, and including articles with a high elastane content, to be processed with significantly reduced elongation; resulting in fabrics with an improved stability whilst offering flexibility in the processing of a wide range of products.
Designed for the universal dyeing of wovens, knits and nonwovens, this generation of soft-TRD machines aims to set new standards in the efficient use of materials and resources. The free material flow and low tension in the transport zone, are said to guarantee optimum relaxation and uniform treatment of the entire fabric rope.
Thies Textilmaschinen established 1892 has concentrated on the fabrication of high quality machines for yarn and piece dyeing and bleaching and drying equipment. Thies are established in markets for woven and knit fabrics, as well as technical textiles.
Techtextil exhibition for technical textiles and nonwovens, will be held from 9-12 May in Frankfurt, Germany.
