Key Features
- Precision Shrinkage Control: Industry-leading mechanical compaction guarantees less than 1% residual shrinkage for the final garment.
- Superior Hand Feel: The compaction process physically "fluffs" the yarn, significantly increasing fabric bulk and softness without chemicals.
- Exact GSM & Width Setting: Locks in the final fabric geometry, ensuring consistent weight (GSM) and width for cutting.
- Steam-Heated Cylinders: Uses dual steam-heated rolls for uniform heat transfer, eliminating edge marks and ensuring a polished finish.
Applications
- Premium Knitwear: Essential for high-quality T-shirts, polo shirts, and underwear where shape retention is critical.
- Natural & Blended Fibers: Perfect for 100% Cotton, Poly-Cotton blends, and Viscose tubular fabrics.
- Final Finishing: The last step in the production line to set the fabric before it goes to the cutting table.
