Tumble Dryers for Knitted Fabric and Garments
topic
Industrial tumble dryers for textile processing use rotating drums at 40 to 60 revolutions per minute with hot air circulation at 60 to 90 degrees Celsius to dry knitted fabrics and garments without tension, allowing the fabric to relax and recover its loop structure during gentle tumbling that provides dimensional relaxation and softening through mechanical action combined with thermal drying without the width and length constraints of stenter processing.
Role
Provides tension-free drying for knitted fabrics and garments that allows loop relaxation and dimensional stabilisation without the distortion that stenter tension would impose on extensible knitted structures, with tumble drying being essential for knitwear quality through the combination of gentle mechanical action and tension-free heat that achieves both drying and dimensional relaxation simultaneously.
