Denim
Denim fabric is coarser than usually woven fabric. Generally, courser yarn is used for making denim. After dyeing and weaving, denim fabric is sent to the finishing section for some properties to be added. In the finishing section, a sequence of production procedures is maintained.
Process Flow Chart Of Finishing of Denim Fabric
The finishing process is performed in the following sequence: They are-
Grey Fabric Roll at Feeding Scray
↓
Brushing
↓
J-Box
↓
Gas Singeing (2-Burner)
↓
Brushing
↓
Chemical Box
↓
Squeezing Padded
↓
Skew Roller
↓
Dryer-1 (10 Cylinders)
↓
Rubber Belt
↓
Stenter (Except stretch denim)
↓
Palmer

Cooling Roller and Folder
List of Machines used in Finishing of Denim Fabric
In sum, to perform this operation, various machines are used. I would like to give a list of machine brand names that could be used in this process.
Machine-1:
This is the first machine that is used at the beginning of finishing. The brand name of the machine is Sperotto Rimer, which is manufactured in Italy.
Singeing Unit:
In the sewing unit, hairy fiber is removed. To perform this Osthoff-Senge singeing machine, which is manufactured in Germany,
Padder pressure (air pressure):
During padding, the following parameter is maintained:
- 7000 Kg (for stretch denim)
- 2000 Kg (except stretch denim)
Machine-2:
After passing machine 1, fabrics passed machine 2. Here, the following machines could be used:
- Sanforizing unit manufacturer: MONFORTS (Germany)
- Up to the dryer unit manufacturer, KTM (USA)
- General output speed: 50 m/min.
- Used a chemical softener (Belsoft). The mixing tank contains 1200 liters of softener solution, which requires 20 kg of softener for 1200 liters.
So, this is all about the finishing section of the denim industry, but the process sequence and machine types could be different depending on the demand-end product requirement.
