The ecoMaster, a development of Thies's internationally successful eco-soft plus fabric dyeing machine, combines safe fabric transport and flexibility with innovations in liquor transfer, liquor penetration and process technology, reducing energy consumption and providing shorter process times.
Optimised configuration of the dyeing kier and liquor pump combined with a newly developed heat exchanger makes it possible to dye cotton articles at a liquor ratio of 1:5. Songwol Vina's five eco-bloc X yarn-dyeing machines also provide a wide range of capacities: the 1400 D-KB can hold 600 kg, the 1400 KB holds 300 kg, the 1000 KB holds 150 kg, the 600 KB holds 50 kg, and the 450 KB holds 20 kg. “This range of capacities means that we can handle big production runs and also smaller items, and also that we can test designs and products,” says Mr Lee.
The eco-bloc X is laid out for an ultimate liquor ratio;depending on the dyeing method, package form and substrate, a liquor ratio of 1:6 is gained. This short liquor process grants a gentle treatment of the yarn. Thread breakages in the later processes are minimised. High rates of passages provide fast and even dyes. By regulation of flow rates and the differential pressure, high rates of liquor circulation provide a gentle treatment of sensitive articles.
The yarn dyeing production includes an RIII Type 1400 KB pressure dryer with satellite kier. This optimises handling and reduces labour costs, as after dyeing the package carriers are lifted out of the kiers and placed directly into the dryer without any intermediate handling.
Automation of the chemical and auxiliaries supply is another important factor in quality and economic efficiency, and the Thies installation includes an automated MPS-L chemical supply system for liquids and an MPS-D dyestuff dissolving system, with 300-litre capacity.
The MPS system (Multi Product Supply) uses a joint control management and data structure. A general control system ranging from the machine control to the overhead system serves for the coordination of all processes in the dye house.
Songwol personnel from Korea are training Songwol Vina employees, with specialists from Thies and Ilies Vietnam handling the training for the Thies technology. Terry Gallery products include wash, hand, bath, beach and kitchen towelling, and towel bathrobes.
