The THEN Supratec LTM is shaped like a long tube, and it uses a Flexkier lifting system and winchless fabric transport to achieve efficient and high-quality dyeing results while using the least amount of water and energy possible—from 1:15 to just 1:4.
It offers an exceptional low liquor ratio system for long tube machines thanks to a number of cutting-edge patented technologies, including a dry and wet mode by programmable kier slope change during the operation.
To achieve full filling with respectable quick turn times, the machine can be delivered specifically configured with one or two nozzles. This shortens the processing time while also lowering the amount of water and energy required for the dying process.
Supratec LTM is a good choice. for the treatment of woven and knitted fabrics in the weight range of 25 grammes per linear metre (g/lm) to 600 g/lm, ranging from the most delicate articles, and it operates at very low tension because of the incredibly low lifting height between the variable nozzle and the plaited fabric.When heat-setting is avoided, the material handles better, costs are reduced, and the lengthwise elongation of the treated fabric is lower than on winch-driven machines. Depending once more on the fabric being treated, each kier has a capacity of up to 200 kg and can move at rates of 80 to 600 metres per minute.
A variety of safeguards are also included in the Supratec to secure the security of the both to protect the coloured fabric from harm and to assist the machine operator. There are sensors for measuring temperature, pressure, and pH levels as well as automatic dosing systems for chemicals and dyes.According to Richard Fander, Europe Director of Sales and Marketing for Fong, “Overall, the THEN Supratec is a highly developed and effective dyeing machine that is widely used in the textile industry for its high-quality results and low environmental impact.” We invite you to stop by booth B106 in Hall 18 in Milan this year, where we will be pleased to go through all the advantages of this technology in greater detail.
