The machine in its main parts consists of:
a first block for inserting the piece (see figure A, point a);
a dresser unit (fig. A, b), which applies a solution of water and chemicals to the pile of the fabric;
a polishing and drying unit (fig. A, c);
an accumulator of the treated tissue (fig. A, d);
a rolling unit (fig. A, e) and, optionally, a folding unit (fig. A, f).
The patch passes through:
two tensioners (fig. A, point 1),
the accompanying cylinders of the dresser unit, where the solution of water and chemical products present in the tray (fig. A, 2) is deposited on the pile of the fabric by means of the cylinders
(fig. A, 3 and 4) and, in particular, when passing over the upper cylinder (fig. A, 4).
The piece comes into contact with the polishing cylinder (fig. A, 5) - in steel heated by electric resistances and equipped with special combs on the four grooves - which moves at a variable number of revolutions, is connected to an inverter which confers a
reciprocating motion and performs the drying, polishing and ironing of the fibers.
A felt sleeve (fig. A, 6), adhering to the adjustable polishing cylinder, finally allows to obtain an oriented pile.
A fabric accumulator (fig. A, 7) allows you to change the roll of fabric already treated (fig. A, 8) without stopping the machine.
