Stenter Integration with Coating Lines
topic
Stenter frame integration after coating application provides simultaneous drying, width setting, and weft straightening of coated woven and knitted fabrics in a single pass, with stenter pin or clip chains holding fabric at defined width during drying to prevent shrinkage that would alter coating weight per unit area and fabric dimensions, and stenter tension control governing the fabric distortion prevention during the coating drying cycle.
Role
Combines the coating drying function with fabric width setting and dimensional stabilisation through stenter integration that eliminates the separate stentering required after coating if a conventional dryer were used, reducing the processing steps for coated fabric production while providing the width control and weft straightening needed to prevent the fabric distortion that untentered coating drying would cause in woven fabric from relaxation of weaving tensions during heating.
