STRETCHLINE LINE-ll00 STENTER FOR KNIT FABRICS
MACHINE CHARACTER AT A GLANCE
CHARACTERISTICS OF PLAIN SINGLE JERSEY KNITTED FABRIC
- FACE SIDE AND BACK SIDE OF FABRIC ARE DIFFERENT.
- CURL OR ROLL OF FABRIC OCCURS AT THE EDGES.
- WALES ARE CLEARLY VISIBLE ON THE FACE SIDE OF THE FABRIC.
- EXTENSIBILITY IN WIDTHWISE IS APPROXIMATELY TWICE THAN LENGTH.
- UNRAVELING OF FABRIC OCCURS FROM EITHER SIDE IS POSSIBLE.
- THICKNESS OF FABRIC IS APPROXIMATELY TWICE THE DIAMETER OF YARN USED.
- THERE IS ONLY ONE SERIES OF KNITTED LOOP PER COURSES IN THE FABRIC
CHARACTERISTICS OF INTERLOCK KNITTED FABRIC
- INTERLOCK THE TECHNICAL FACE OF PLAIN ON BOTH SIDES SO THE APPEARANCE OF FACE & BACK ARE SAME. THE WALES OF EACH SIDE RE EXACTLY APPOSITE TO EACH OTHER AND ARE LOCKED TOGETHER.
- WIDTH WISE AND LENGTH ELONGATIONS ARE APPROXIMATELY THE SAME AS SINGLE JERSEY.
- THE FABRIC DOES CURL AT THE EDGES. THE FABRIC CAN BE UNRAVELED FROM THE KNITTED LAST.
- TWO YARN MUST BE REMOVED TO UNRAVEL A COMPLETE REPEAT OF KNITTED COURSES.
- FABRIC THICKNESS IS APPROXIMATELY TWICE THAN THAT OF SINGLE JERSEY.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PURL FABRIC
- PURL IS REVERSIBLE STRUCTURE, BOTH SIDE APPEARANCE IS SAME.
- EXTENSIBILITY IS SAME IN ALL DIRECTIONS.
- THERE IS NO CURLING TENDENCY. ( IT DOES NOT CURL AT THE EDGES)
- THE FABRIC WILL RUN IN THE WALE DIRECTION STARTING FROM EITHER END.
- UNRAVELING OF FABRIC COURSE BY COURSE FROM EITHER SIDE IS POSSIBLE.
- THE FABRIC TENDS TO BE TWO OR THREE TIMES THICKER THAN SINGLE JERSEY.
- THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF PURL NEEDLE BED MACHINE, FLAT BED PURL AND CIRCULAR PURLS.
FUNCTION OF THE STRETCHLINE-ll00 KNIT'S STENTER
- FABRIC IS DRIED BY THE STENTER.
- WIDTH OF THE FABRIC IS CONTROLLED.
- FINISHING CHEMICALS APPLICATION.
- HEAT SET FOR LYRCA / POLYESTER FABRICS.
- MOISTURE RETENTION IS CONTROLLED.
- SPIRALITY IS CONTROLLED.
- GSM IS CONTROLLED.
- LENGTH SHRINKAGE IS CONTROLLED.
- LOOP OF THE KNIT FABRIC IS CONTROLLED.
- CURING TREATMENT IS DONE.
- SELVEDGE GUMMING & CUTTING WITH ADDITIONAL DEVISE ATTACHED.
- TO CONTROL THE REQUIRED DIA.
- OVERFEEDING FOR INTERMEDIATE DRYING FOR PRINTING.
