Main roller traverse structure of jigger dyeing machine

 

The jigger dyeing machine is a device used for textile dyeing. It has a high degree of automation, is environmentally friendly and energy-saving. It can achieve small batch and multi-variety dyeing and is widely used in the textile dyeing industry.
The fabric is rolled up on a main roller and dyed using dye liquor in a cycle. The fabric is unwound from one main roller A, rolled up on another main roller B. Then unwound from the main roller B and rolled up on the main roller A. During the alternating winding process, the dye liquor continuously passes under the main winding roller. The fabric surface absorbs the dye liquor and then adsorbs, combines and fixes it during the winding process.

Function of main roller traverse of jigger dyeing machine

The traverse of the main roller of the jigger dyeing machine is a very practical function, which can effectively reduce the color difference between the edges and the center of some fabrics.
Some fabrics are twisted during the weaving process, and the edges are thicker than the middle of the fabric. During the dyeing process on the jigger dyeing machine, it is necessary to stagger the edges of the fabric. Otherwise, when winding, the thickness of the fabric at the edge will be much thicker than in the middle. This will make the tension at the edge and the middle of the fabric different, and it will be more likely that the color of the edge and the middle will be different. Some fabric widths may be skewed to a certain extent, and the traverse of the main roller can help correct the fabric during the dyeing process and improve the fabric width.

The structure of the main roller traverse

(1) Structural features
  • The central support of the main roller is fixed.
  • The roller surface can move forward and backward along the axis of the central support, and the stroke can generally reach 100mm.
(2) Working Principle
  • The power for the roller surface to move is provided by the motor outside the machine driving the screw and shift fork device.
  • The lever principle is used to push the roller surface to move along the axis of the center bracket.
(3) Advantages and disadvantages
  • Advantages:
    • The central support does not move, and the sealing problem between the main roller and the cylinder is relatively easy to solve;
    • The forward and reverse rotation can be adjusted by the motor to control the traverse stroke of the main roller.
  • Disadvantages:
    • The sealing of the connection between the roller surface and the central support needs to be treated with emphasis to prevent the dye from corroding the main roller;
    • the dye on the gap between the roller surface and the central support is difficult to clean, which may affect the dyeing of the next batch;
    • The strength of the shift fork device will gradually decrease during repeated pushing and pulling, and regular maintenance is required.
(4) Applicable scenarios
  • Usually used in high temperature and high pressure jigger dyeing machines.

Fiber Fineness and Tenacity Test

Image
  Test methods explanation We have tested 5 fiber samples using two solutions to test fiber fineness and tenacity: Solution 1 and solution 2. Solution 1 We use YG002C measured the fiber diameter, and YG005S tested the break force and extension. The fiber density is converted to denier from diameter using the formula. Then use the break force divide the density to get the tenacity. Please move to TABLE 1 to view the test result. We have attached YG002C parameter sheet in Appendix 1 and YG005S parameter sheets in Appendix 2. Solution 2 We use ZK100F measured the fiber density, and YG005X tested the break force, extension, and tenacity. Please move to TABLE 2 to view the test result. We have attached ZK100F parameter sheet in Appendix 3 and YG005X parameter sheet in Appendix 4. A better solution for fiber density and tenacity testing  We also have a YG005XD AUTOMATIC FIBER TENSILE AND FINENESS TEST SYSTEM, which has integrated function of ZK100F and YG005X; it is equipped wi...

Introduction of Sizing

Image
  Sizing is the process of applying size to warp yarns to improve their weavability. Weavability refers to the ability of warp yarns to withstand repeated friction, stretching, bending and other effects of stop sheets, heddles, reeds, etc. on a loom without causing excessive fluffing or even breakage. Unsized single yarn fibers do not adhere tightly to each other and have more hairiness on the surface, making it difficult to weave. After sizing, part of the sizing liquid penetrates between the fibers, and the other part adheres to the surface of the warp yarn. The sizing that mainly involves the penetration of the slurry into the fibers is called penetrating sizing, and the sizing that mainly relies on the slurry adhering to the surface of the warp yarns is called covering sizing. Ancient manual sizing involves spreading the warp yarns into sheets, applying paste with a brush or reed, drying and then winding them into weaving beams. Wang Zhen’s “Nongshu” of the Yuan Dynasty contain...

Selection of materials for jigger dyeing machine parts

Image
In the textile industry, the jigger dyeing machine is a key textile printing and dyeing equipment. The selection of its main manufacturing material has a vital impact on the performance, durability, and dyeing effect of the equipment. Stainless steel is one of the most commonly used materials in modern dye jigger manufacturing, especially 304 and 316L. Material selection for each component of the jigger dyeing machine The jigger dyeing machine is composed of a frame, an electric control cabinet, a vessel/top cover, a circulation system, a dye bath, a main roller, a guide roller, a tension frame, an additional tank, a debatching device, and other parts. More details about jigger dyeing machine in our company No contact with dye solution ​ For parts that are not in contact with the dye solution, the main consideration when choosing the manufacturing material is the use environment of the equipment. Generally speaking, the environment of the dyeing factory is harsh. We recommend using 304...
