20160186368 | Method of Chemical Treatment for Fibers - Repeatable and reliable chemical treatment for loose fibers is achieved by spraying or immersing loose fibers in a chemical treatment bath, and continuously moving the soaked fibers through a continuous centrifuge. The continuous centrifuge controls the wet pickup of the chemical formulation on the fibers and assures a substantially even chemical distribution on the centrifuged fibers. The centrifuged fibers may be dried to fix the chemicals in the chemical formulation to the fibers and/or to remove water from the chemical formulation. Recycling of the chemical formulation from the continuous centrifuge allows for the process to be performed more economically and in a more environmentally friendly fashion. | 06-30-2016 |
20100175200 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR THE TREATMENT OF STRAND-SHAPED TEXTILE PRODUCTS - An apparatus for the treatment of strand-shaped textile products in the form of a continuous material strand which is circulated at least during part of the treatment, includes an elongated, essentially tubular treatment container and a transport nozzle array that can be charged with a gaseous transport medium stream. In the treatment container is arranged, adjoining a material strand inlet, a storage section for receiving a piled-up material strand package corresponding a sliding floor that is inclined, at least in sections, in a manner descending from pile-up means toward a head part of the treatment container. In the region of the transport nozzle array means are provided in order to charge the material strand at least in the region of the transport nozzle array with a liquid treatment agent. | 07-15-2010 |
20100107344 | APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING FABRIC - A method and apparatus for supplying liquid mixtures on a mix-on-demand basis for consumptive use, and for maintaining the composition of such mixture on a highly accurate and stable basis. For wet-on-wet processing of fabrics, the processing solution is supplied at start-up on a mix-on-demand basis to precise specifications and is maintained at such precise specifications throughout fabric processing, which involves continuous additions of water by the incoming fabric and removal of solution by the exiting fabric. Recirculation of the solution at a high rate, together with rapid and repetitive measurements of the composition of the recirculating solution enables the solution to be precisely monitored and maintained. Periodic small additions of chemical are injected as necessary to maintain highly stable, accurately controlled process conditions. Extraordinary economies, both direct and indirect, can be realized with the new system. | 05-06-2010 |
