B-type opening and squeezing series

Published specifications

Values below come from the maintained catalogue record. The guide review date does not renew an earlier specification: read the dated source notes and confirm a current, matched configuration before comparing products.

• Small padder and high untwisting unit feed the line
• Cutter on the main machine for tubular knits
• Automatic filtration on a four-tank, eight-spray wash

Cloth comes in through a small padder and climbs to a high untwisting unit. On the main machine a cutting device slits the tube where the job calls for it. A lint-washing section follows, made up of four tanks, four filters and eight spray groups, with filtration drawn as automatic. A padder then presses out water and an exit device hands the fabric on.

Kanglide's feature sheet adds adjustable spreading rollers and filtration control. Covers over parts of the wash and a stainless outer skin are marked as options, so name the ones you want and make sure they reach the quoted inclusion list.

Tell Kanglide whether your knit arrives flat or as a tube and whether it must be cut. Ask which cutting and edge-detection parts the offer contains, how the cloth is opened and supported on its way through, and which settings would change for your fabric. [1] [2] [3]

These values sit under the B-type heading on Kanglide's page, before the A-type and the softening line. They describe the design; the right-hand column lists what to get confirmed for your own plant. [1] [2]

Below the B-type, Kanglide's page shows an A-type and then a line for opening, slitting, lint removal, softening and squeezing. That last drawing inserts a softener stage and one more padder, and its table reads 45 kW and 13,200 × 4,500 × 6,000 mm.

Order the softening version by name if softener must go on at this step, and ask for its own drawing, treatment scope, chemical handling and utility data. Agree in advance how the softened fabric will be judged.

Set the B-type beside any other opener or dewatering machine by matching stages and fabric scope before you look at speed or width, and compare configurations line by line. A short opener with no wash section does another job even when its labels look close. In knit finishing, this kind of line usually comes ahead of the stenter, so ask what moisture and width that machine needs from it. [1]

Acceptance steps for the B-type

Bring cotton knit in the form and wet state it will really arrive in. Kanglide's table publishes no lint, moisture or fabric-quality figure, so decide what your next process needs and how each result will be measured. A trial on your own material answers these questions before any money is paid.

1. Log the incoming knit

   Construction, width, flat or tubular form, wet state, seams and other variation, and whether a cut is needed. Keep a reference piece signed by both sides.

2. Inspect opening and slitting

   Watch the arrangement Kanglide proposes and check fabric form, cut edge, creasing and distortion against agreed limits. Note each adjustment the technician makes.

3. Judge washing and filtration

   Settle a repeatable way to rate leftover lint and fabric appearance. Note wash and filter settings, filter cleaning and what the filters collect. The number of tanks gives no removal percentage.

4. Weigh the squeezed fabric

   Agree sampling positions and the method for water content. Write speed, padder settings and incoming condition beside every reading.

5. Run it long enough

   Over an agreed run, record accepted output, pauses, operator tasks and utilities. Check exit handling and the transfer onward, keep samples and settings, and clear deviations before signing off commissioning.

Ask for a stage list naming the ordered width, cutting and control parts, filtration equipment, covers or cladding, padder and exit handling. Have Kanglide list any separate tanks, services or connecting equipment you must supply, along with an electrical schedule, and plan the hall from a current layout drawing.

Put in writing who installs, connects utilities, commissions and trains your operators. Request operating and maintenance manuals, a filter-cleaning procedure and a list of wear parts and spares for the exact build. The feature sheet's talk of easy upkeep is no substitute for a maintenance plan.

Price, lead time and warranty go in the written offer next to the fabric acceptance procedure. Any output or energy promise should name the fabric and running conditions it covers. [1] [3]
