The main parts of this machine are represented by two sliding cloth-holder chains
in the relevant guides (see figure A, point 1).
In the first part of the machine two articulated or mobile guides, controlled by two electronic tape pickers,
they guarantee regular advancement of the fabric according to its width. In the
second part chains and guides ensure the advancement of the fabric in a parallel and equidistant manner,
with electronic adjustment based on the height of the finished fabric, to obtain perfect alignment
selvages on the rolled fabric.
The stacked piece passes:
through a cloth stretcher (fig. A, 2) and accompanied by the idle rollers (fig. A, 3) it reaches the
feeding (fig. A, 4) at variable speed.
With the help of two stitching brushes (fig. A, 5), the fabric is pinned in the selvedge
from the pins of the two rag chains. The two electronic probes, the movement of the guides and the advancement
of the two chains convey the fabric in a regular manner towards the end part
of the machine, where:
two cylinders (fig. A, 6) which rotate at variable speeds with respect to the chain allow to obtain
rolls (fig. A, 7) more or less compact.
To eliminate any slight folding creases, the machine can be equipped with an or
multiple steaming tanks (fig. A, 8) and radiant batteries (fig. A, 9) for drying.
A meter counter and a scale provide the data necessary to print the identification card
of the rolled up piece.
