Fong?s DYECOWIN

It is the most knitted and woven synthetic fabrics in polyester, nylon and their blends with or without spandex. DYECOWIN is the revolutionary high temperature dyeing machine setting new standards for the industry. It is integrated with the cutting-edge patented technologies to cut down the liquor ratio and to enhance the productivity of the dyeing processes.

Reduce production cost: DYECOWIN is a major breakthrough in the long tube machine operating with a much lower running liquor ratio as low as 1:5.

The patented fluid distributor at the rear of the machine can effectively adjust the distribution of dyeing liquor according to different fabric types, ensuring an organised fabric stacking pattern.

Optimise dyeing quality: The winchless design can overcome the tangling problem on the conventional dyeing machines. The fabric surface defects such as scratch marks and light spots caused by unsynchronised motion between nozzle and winch can so be avoided. The patented ?CONJET?nozzle technology can ensure high quality of finished products by enabling automatic and precise adjustments of flow volume and nozzle pressure.

Enhance productivity and efficiency: The rectangular fabric transportation pipe allows fabric to have free relaxation and run smoothly along the channel, thus reducing crease marks effectively. This design also favors open width dyeing so as to simplify the production process. The patented stainless steel storage chamber is capable of increasing the loading capacity, combining with the use of ?CONJET?nozzle, sensitive fabric can be run smoothly without scratching and snapping. The surface quality of fabric is assured with minimised cycle time.

GOLLER SINTENSA CYCLONE TANDEM

The newly-designed GOLLER washing compartment ? SINTENSA CYCLONE TANDEM reduces fabric?s running tension by means of the following two points.

By optimising fabric?s running route: The optimised fabric?s running route and the increased cladding intensity of the driven rollers and driven drums can keep the speed of the running fabric in accord with the speed of driven rollers and driven drums, stabilise the processing conditions for fabric in the washing compartment and enhance the accuracy of synchronisation so as to facilitate the minimisation the running tension of fabric.

By specially-designed rotor installed on the driven drum (perforated): The rationale behind is that when the range is running, the rotor can rotates at different speeds under liquor and the high-speed water stirring of rotor can result in low pressure and thus achieving the suction effect of the running fabric. As a result of this, the problem of fabric-slipping can be avoided and the lower running tension can be resulted.

The new generation of GOLLER high efficiency washing compartment ? SINTENSA CYCLONE TANDEM is an innovation to the typical washing compartment in large size and in large volume, which can indeed guarantee energy-saving, emission reduction and production costs-saving and make the open-width washing process for knitted fabric more smooth and efficient.

GOLLER EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL

It is a newly-designed washing compartment, which maximises the flexibility in applications and brings the washing experiences to a brand new level.

By minimising the occurrence of curling edge and crease marks: EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL is designed particularly for woven bottom weight and denim with high content of elastic weft processing. The ingenious way of putting the two rows of middle support rollers between the row of top rollers and the row of bottom rollers of EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL has substantially shortened the free fabric path in between and thus minimising the occurrence of curling edge and crease marks. A higher washing efficiency can also be achieved since the extra two rows of middle support rollers provide more nips for fabrics during washing process.

By enhancing the compatibility of EFFECTA with different units: EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL is designed specifically for enhancing the compatibility of EFFECTA with different units. It applies the same design principle as the one of SINTENSA CYCLONE TANDEM by incorporating the modular-design intermediated trough with squeezer into the washing compartment ? EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL in this case. This modular design has further enhanced the compatibility of EFFECTA with the latest version of Sintensa washing compartment- SINTENSA CYCLONE TANDEM, Oxidator chemical application, swelling, shrinkage and washing compartment and Universa dwelling and washing compartment, etc. With the advancement of applications compatibility, EFFECTA MODUL ANTI-CURL not only complete Goller?s product portfolio but also enable Goller to be excelled in every continuous open-width washing occasion.

MONFORTS FONG?S MONTEX 6500 AIR FILTRATION OMNI

This system also run with developed Monformatic, which is control system for technology in combination of treatment processes (drying and heat-setting) to achieve exact maintenance of the dwell time. When the heat-setting point is reached, the fan speed is automatically adjusted. A further contribution to greater cost-effectiveness.

Its function including measurement of the heat absorption of each fabric from the circulation air, determination of exact heat-setting times even with varying parameters such as deviating initial moisture content or reduced circulating air due to clogged filters or fan failure. Besides, the exact determination of the heat-setting point is the reliable basis for optimum speed control and thus for cost-effective machine utilisation and optimum exhaust air conditions at all times. The payback is energy consumption being under control which always knows the right heat-setting point. This could eliminate the need for allowances and avoid the risk of insufficient heat-setting. Besides, the system could run with self-developed central processing control software ?Q-soft?.

This software is for production planning and documentation with a central interface. All process data can be stored in a standardised database (ODBC=Open Data Base Connectivity) where all setpoints and actual values are filed with read and write access for setpoints. Three levels of networking interfacing are possible: 1) Interfacing to your network, 2) Output to a PC with graphic presentation (Monforlogic), and 3) Interfacing with a process control system to include machines from other manufacturers as well.
