The system is characterized by the machine manufacturer's Vario Double modular dyeing machine, which can be used for conventional, nitrogen or reactor dyeing, followed by a steamer. The yarns are then passed through a quick oxidization unit and a wash trough. The KAMCOS control system and a fully-automated chemical dispensing and measuring system ensure all processes are flexible, fully reproducible and highly accurate. Beam changing between the separate processes is also fully automatic.
“The Pad/Sizing Ox and Indig-O-Matic are two technologies setting the trend in the textile sector,” said Rainer Roesch, Head of Marketing & Application Development of Business Unit Textile Chemicals at Clariant. “This is a partnership which has got the chemistry and machinery just right in terms of efficiency, flexibility and ecological performance.”
