What is the operating process of the fabric dyeing machine?
Oct 28, 2024
1. Preparation
Check the equipment
Check whether all parts of the fabric dyeing machine are intact, including dyeing vats, pipes, valves, nozzles, heating systems, cooling systems, control systems, etc. Ensure that the equipment has no leakage, damage, blockage, etc.
Check whether the electrical system is normal, whether the wires are firmly connected, and whether the instrument displays accurately. If there is any abnormality, it should be repaired or replaced in time.
Prepare dye liquor
According to the dyeing process requirements, prepare the required dyes, auxiliaries and water. Dissolve the dyes and auxiliaries in water in a certain proportion, stir evenly, and prepare the dye liquor.
Check whether the concentration, pH value, temperature and other parameters of the dye liquor meet the requirements. If necessary, adjustments can be made.
Prepare fabrics
Pre-treat the fabrics to be dyed, such as desizing, scouring, bleaching, etc., to remove impurities and stains on the fabrics and improve the dyeing effect.
Weigh and measure the fabrics to determine the specifications and quantity of the fabrics. According to the type of fabric and dyeing requirements, choose a suitable loading method, such as flat width loading, rope loading, etc.
2. Equipment operation
Loading
Load the prepared fabric into the dyeing vat of the dyeing machine. Note that the fabric should be loaded evenly and tightly to avoid wrinkles, accumulation and other phenomena. For different types of dyeing machines, the loading method may be different.
Close the dyeing vat door to ensure good sealing.
Injecting dye liquid
Open the dyeing machine's liquid inlet valve and inject the prepared dye liquid into the dyeing vat. Pay attention to controlling the flow and pressure of the dye liquid to avoid problems such as impact and leakage.
When the dye liquid is injected to a certain extent, start the dyeing machine's circulation system to circulate the dye liquid in the dyeing vat to ensure that the fabric is fully immersed in the dye liquid.
Heating dyeing
Start the dyeing machine's heating system to heat the dye liquid to the predetermined dyeing temperature. The heating speed should be controlled according to the dyeing process requirements to avoid being too fast or too slow.
During the heating process, the temperature changes of the dye liquid and the dyeing of the fabric should be continuously observed. If there is any abnormality, it should be adjusted in time.
When the dye liquid temperature reaches the predetermined temperature, keep it for a certain time so that the dye is fully dyed on the fabric. The dyeing time should be determined according to the type of fabric, the nature of the dye, the depth of dyeing and other factors.
Cooling
After dyeing is completed, turn off the heating system, start the cooling system, and cool the dye liquor to a certain temperature. The cooling speed should be controlled according to the requirements of the dyeing process to avoid being too fast or too slow.
During the cooling process, the temperature changes of the dye liquor and the state of the fabric should be constantly observed. If there are any abnormalities, adjustments should be made in time.
Drainage
When the temperature of the dye liquor drops to a certain level, open the drain valve of the dyeing machine to discharge the dye liquor out of the dye vat. Drainage should be thorough to avoid residual dye liquor.
Close the drain valve and rinse the dye vat with clean water to remove residual dye liquor and impurities on the fabric. The number of rinses should be determined according to the requirements of the dyeing process.
3. Post-treatment
Fixation
According to the requirements of the dyeing process, the dyed fabric is fixed. The fixing method can be chemical fixing, thermal fixing, ultraviolet fixing, etc. The fixing time and temperature should be determined according to the type of fabric, the nature of the dye, the type of fixing agent and other factors.
During the fixing process, the color changes and fixing effect of the fabric should be constantly observed. If there are any abnormalities, adjustments should be made in time.
Washing
After the color fixation is completed, wash the fabric with clean water several times to remove the residual color fixative and impurities on the fabric. The number of washes should be determined according to the dyeing process requirements.
During the washing process, pay attention to controlling the flow and temperature of the water to avoid damage to the fabric.
Drying
After the washing is completed, the fabric is dried. The drying method can be hot air drying, infrared drying, microwave drying, etc. The drying temperature and time should be determined according to the type, thickness, moisture content and other factors of the fabric.
During the drying process, the degree of dryness and color changes of the fabric should be constantly observed. If there are any abnormalities, adjustments should be made in time.
Finishing
After the drying is completed, the fabric is finished, such as stretching, calendering, pre-shrinking, etc., to improve the flatness, glossiness and dimensional stability of the fabric. The finishing method should be determined according to the type and requirements of the fabric.
During the finishing process, pay attention to controlling the finishing strength and temperature to avoid damage to the fabric.
4. Equipment maintenance
Cleaning
After each use of the fabric dyeing machine, the equipment should be cleaned in time. Rinse the dye vat, pipes, valves, nozzles and other parts with clean water and detergent to remove residual dye and impurities.
Regularly clean the equipment, such as disassembling some parts for cleaning, replacing filters, etc.
Lubrication
Regularly lubricate the transmission parts, bearings, etc. of the equipment to reduce wear and extend the service life of the equipment. Select the appropriate lubricant and lubricate according to the prescribed time and method.
Check whether the lubrication system is normal. If there are problems such as leakage or blockage, repair them in time.
Inspection
Regularly check the equipment, including whether the various parts of the equipment are intact, whether the electrical system is normal, and whether the instrument displays accurately. If there are any abnormal conditions, they should be repaired or replaced in time.
Check the safety devices of the equipment, such as emergency stop buttons, protective covers, etc., to ensure their normal operation.
Maintenance
Regularly maintain according to the equipment's instruction manual and maintenance manual, such as replacing wearing parts, repairing motors, calibrating instruments, etc. Maintenance work should be carried out by professionals to ensure maintenance quality.
Organize and analyze the equipment's operation records, summarize experience and lessons, and continuously improve the equipment's operation and maintenance methods.
The above is the general operation process of the fabric dyeing machine. Different types of fabric dyeing machines and different dyeing processes may be different. In actual operation, the equipment should be operated strictly in accordance with the operating instructions and dyeing process requirements to ensure the safe operation of the equipment and the dyeing quality.
