8. Stamping machine
Before the dyeing process the fibre passed through
stamping m/c . In which fibre compressed in cylindrical
chamber by applying pressure and boiled water with
temperature at 100°C.
By this process fibre become more compressed so that it
can easy to carry by carrier and more amount of fibre can
be dyed.

9. Salient Features:-
 Less labour intensive
 Even dyeing result
 Complete automatic control
 Travelling trolley for basket
 Extension cylinder for fibre loading
 Low maintenance cost
 Eco-Friendly Machine
 Increase productivity
Working Principle:-
The loose fibre is fed uniformly from fiber bell into cake
forming device, press the fibre with Pressing device by the
hydraulic cylinder and power pack yields high density cake in a
single stroke.
MAIN FUTURES OF THE MACHINE:
Stamping press consists of a turning basket made of stainless
steel AISI 304.
Hydraulic pressing unit with press plate fixed on 4 points to
insure solidity of pressing process which is mounted on a
column.
Hydraulic arm press the loose fiber by a press plate
approximately same diameter of the cake itself Machine is
equipped by a Hydraulic cylinder which controls the reverse
forward movement of basket.

10. Different Types of Dyeing Machine:
We can classify dyeing machine in the following way.
Types of dyeing machine according to textile material:
A. Fiber dyeing machine
B. Yarn dyeing machine
C. Fabric dyeing machine
But here is only fibre dyeing process caried out.

11. Dyeing is a process of coloring textile materials for giving
attractive look. In broadlywe can explain,dyeing is a process by
which a yarn, fabric, garments and any other materialsthat
come to contact of dye by presence of auxiliariesthat create
the conditionof dyeing environment. Dyeing operationis done
by different types of dyeing machine. The machine which is
used to dyeing or coloring of materialslike yarn, fabric,
garments or any other materialsis called dyeing machine.

12. Dyeing machines come in all shapes and sizes to accommodate
the variousforms and quantitiesof textile materials. Actuallyit
is the device that is used by different industries for imparting
colors. Varioustypes of dyeing machineries are used to dye the
textile materials.

Hydroextractor
Hydro-Extractors are also calledCentrifuges.Centrifuges are
used for water extraction (dewatering, pre-drying) of textile
materials. Values of approx. 15% for residual moisture content
can be achieveddependingon the type of textile fiber.
Centrifuges with perforated drums or baskets (Ø up to approx.
2000 mm) which oscillatevertically in ball-and-socketjoints
suspended on three points are produced in various designs as
pendulating,suspension,cage and vertical centrifuges, also
with so called gliding support bearings as gliding support
centrifuges or in horizontalresp. vertical arrangements as
open-width, horizontaland warp-beam centrifuges, etc. Most
centrifuges have electric drives for speeds of approx. 750–1200
rpm and are generally provided with automatic control over
variousranges. For
safety reasons, an interlocking lid is essential on a centrifuge so
that the motor cannot be started until the lid is locked, nor the
lid raised until the basket is stationary again after the machine
has been stopped.

16. Advantage of hydroextractor
▪ No deformation of the packages.
▪ Excellent rewinding properties. Rewinding can even be
eliminated in a lot of cases.
▪ Low residual moisture.
▪ Even humidity distribution through the package.
▪ Low energy consumption.

17. ▪ Dyeing tubes last longer.
▪ Processes many different size packages.
▪ Operator of centrifuge can also load dryer.
▪ Maintenance-free brakes.
▪ Closed system for effluent.
▪ Low compressed air consumption.
▪ Significant energy savings.

18. R/F dryer
Conventional mode of Drying Textiles after they have
been dyed is a slow process. Textile industries can
increase throughput and fill orders more prominently
using Radio Frequency (RF) Dryers. RF system has
capability to accelerate the drying process and shorten
production time. RF drying offers high volume, high
speed and high quality drying which is what is exactly
needed in textile industries. As wet garments of acrylic,
cotton, nylon and

19. polyester blends pass through the drying chamber, the
radio waves vibrate the contained water molecules
million times per second, vaporizing them. Ventilator
fans are used to remove damp air from the drying
chamber.
The dryer system comprises the 125kW industrial high
frequency generator in conjunction with a drying
chamber incorporating an electrode applicator and air
extraction system. The equipment is suitable for drying
most types of fibres which have had prior mechanical
moisture extraction in either, cone, muff, bump or loose
stock form. Many types of fibre can be dried. The
machine incorporates a modular polypropylene conveyor
band and conveyor system.
Because the RF waves concentrate in the wettest,
densest portion of the garments, RF drying has a leveling
effect that practically eliminates any problems of uneven
shrinkage and over drying. The RF drying times depend
on the type of fabric; the percentage of moisture in the
fabric going in to the dryer, and the degree of dryness
desired.

20. Advantages:
The major advantage is that it gives thorough, consistent
drying in less lime and also occupies less space. In
addition to these, following advantages are prominent:
1. Faster Drying
2. Faster Prodn.
3. Increased Labor Prodn.
4. Energy Saving
5. Less Down Time
6. Lower Maintenance
7. Less work in progress

NOTE- cotton do not apply directly in the R/f dryer
because it catches fire . So first it packed in the plastic
container and the passed through the dryer.
