The necessity of weft straightening
In order to increase the value of fabric, enhancement is necessary in its functionalities such as hand and quality. Fabric thus goes through various treatments.
However, such treatments can be a cause for weft distortions. It is important to straighten weft distortions before they become extreme. For example, weft straightening is necessary before the pre-setting
stage after relaxing or before final setting.
[Pre-stenter stage]
Weft straightening directly before printing, in particular, is an effective means of obtaining good results as it prevents print motifs from becoming distorted.
[Pre-printing stage]
However, it is very difficult for the human eye to detect weft distortions in fabric running continuously. Automation of weft straightening is necessary.
Automatic weft straightener DM-SVW II has been developed to this end.
