Flatwork Ironing

Principle of the ironing process:

Ironing.png


Heat balance

  • textile heating 4 %
  • heating of water 5 %
  • vaporization of water 40 %
  • heating of air 17 %
  • heat losses 37 %


Energy efficiency measures

Heat recovery

The machine is covered and a heat exchanger for the offgas of the roll is installed.

Other measures

  • Adoption of velocity of the machine
  • Controlling of residual textile moisture
  • Controlling of cylinder press temperature
  • Adoption of contact pressure/ thickness of textile layer
