Fabric Centering and Guiding Unit

While processing knitted fabrics in different machines, due to the effect of various processes, fabric loses its natural structure. Slat type of fabric centering unit eliminates possible tension on the fabric also guides and centers fabrics while transferrng to the following units. Alternative fabric centering units are mainly used at the inlet of stenter, compacting, dryer and rotary printing machines inlet frames.

Centering unit is equipped with full optical sensor band which is completely covered with transparent tube. The structure of sensor is durable in very heavy working conditions like steam, water and sun light. The sensor detects both side of fabric and send the reference signal to the PLC unit in order to activate slats of centering unit in correction way. Unit does not require manual adjustment for different fabric types. Slat type of fabric centering units can be used successfully for non-woven fabrics, knitted and woven fabrics in order to guide, center and transfer of the fabric throughout the following units.

Cradle Type Centering Unit

Fabric guiding and centering unit which is used mainly for woven and warp knitted wider width fabrics. The unit works by means of two pcs of coated or tape-wounded cylinder that are not driven and allows the cradling movement with pneumatic piston located between the left and right frames. It does not require manual fabric width adjustment thanks to the optical sensor unit. Both sensors read fabric edges and send this information to the control panel. Accordingly, pneumatic piston gives cradling movement to the two rollers and fabric gets centered by this movement.

Technical Specifications

  • Stainless and strong side frames and support profiles
  • Both side pneumatic pistons controlled cradling movement
  • Fabric centering unit controlled from one side or optical sensor
  • Unit is equipped with EF-SDU type spiral expander unit
  • Two pcs of stainless steel idler rollers, self driven, tape wounded
  • Transparent safety covers with sliding rail system, and safety switches for both side of unit

Fabric Centering and Spreading Unit

Printing Machines

Mainly unit is designed and manufactured to transfer the fabric to printing machine’s blanket tensionless, centered and both side edges uncurled. It is designed to work compatible with sensors and DC motor unit that is required to referral fabric from desired point to the printing blanket. In applications that will be worked with knitted fabrics, pneumatic type of edge decurler unit (EF-MED/F) is highly recommended in order to get maximum fabric edge uncurl success prior to the fabric centering and guiding unit. Driven roller application can be used as required prior to centering unit.

Fabric Centering Sensor

Most of the fabric centering units are equipped with full band fabric centering sensor. Optic fabric sensor reads reference signal from the both side of fabric and transfers this information to the control unit. Thanks to the reference signal reading by optic full band sensor the centering unit is activated in desired way to guide and center the fabric. The sensor is placed in transparent pipe tube which can be used in wet and humid areas. Production range is 1000–3400 mm.
