An Overview of Compactor Machine for Textile Factory

Compactor Machine

The compactor machine is used in Textile Factory is a compaction machine used in textile finishing of apparel fabric. The compactor is a textile machinery which is used for knitted fabric like jersey, pique, interlock, plush, rib etc. as well as cotton blended fabric in rope form. The compactor is used for controlling shrinkage of fabric, GSM control and make compaction the fabric in length wise direction to provide over feed to the fabric while processing in presence of steam and able to control the shrinkage. The text compactor is used as finishing machine after dyeing. Open Width Compactor is used after Stenter Machine and Tubuler Compactor Machie is used after Industrial Dryer Machine.

Application of Compactor:

Text compactor is appropriate for compaction fabric for the felt boarding and pre-shrinking process of pure cotton, blended cotton and polyester tubular fabrics, the shrinkage of fabrics can be less than 4%. It also used for  textile printing and general textile manufacturing in Textile company.

Types of Text Compactor:

The text compactor are given below-

  1. Open Width Compactor
  2. Tubular Compactor

Function of Compactor:
