• indirect steam through thermplates
• external isolation
• quick heating of the liquor through the large surface
• even temperature distribution over the full width
• reduced liquor volume

• gentle but intensive removal of impurities from fabric surface and out of the fibre core
• increase of liquor exchange
• bath separation
• simplification of the subsequent processes due to efficient precleaning

• suction from both sides
• removal of fluffing from both sides
• bath separation

• liquor pick up from 90 to 130 %
• excellent liquor exchange and penetration to the core of the fibre
• no surface reaction or cloudiness in the steamer
• no titration necessary because of fast bath exchange
• minimized fibre damage

• chemicals can be dosed separately
• dosing dependent on water flow (ml/kg)
• water supply via level
• easy operation via PC
• first filling recipe controlled
• online calculation of add on and exchange factor
• automatic adaption of concentration in case of recipe and fabric exchange
• consumption data registration

• complete absorption of the bleaching liquor
• evenness of liquor application
• avoidance of dripping and creation of stripes
• counter-current fabric/liquor
• formation of liquor nips at the deflection point (penetration of the liquor into the fabric)
• efficient heating of the fabric

• steam-sealed passage avoids pollution of the atmosphere
• no cooling of the fabric, no condensation of the dissolved impurities
• stress free opening and centering of the fabric by swivelling centering device
• guaranteed crease-free fabric entrance in the final washing

• pH-probe for real value registration
• set value adjustable via machine control
• liquor circulation pump
• dosing pump for acid with injection device

• recipe controlled fabric filling and dwelling time
• careful fabric take-off from the upper part of the fabric package
• exact fabric take-off by sensor rollers
• overfilling-safety device for the rollerbed
• program controlled change from plaited to tight strand
• ideal steam condition and temperature distribution through sump heating

Vertical steamer

• dwelling zone in tight-strand fabric guiding, therefore avoidance of formation of creases and cross
• marks during plaiting
• heated steamer roof
• short loop plaiter for exact fabric package formation
• lowest fabric tension by frequency regulated additional drives of the upper guide rollers
• fabric breakage surveillance
