Monforts, a global leader among the manufacturers and exporters of textile machines, has launched Eco Applicator, a new and advanced system for the treatment of technical textiles in finishing and coating processes, that offers significant energy savings for a wide range of technical textile applications.

The system is used for the application of liquors or functional chemicals and designed for a wide range of technical textiles applications, complying with the VDMA’s Blue Competence sustainability initiative, according to a Monforts press release.

The Eco Applicator soft coating process offers significant energy savings with reduced liquor for a wide range of applications such as felt finishes, coated materials, and medical textiles including Nano coating, water repellancy, softeners, flame retardency, and insect repellancy.

It has been designed to apply liquor to one side of the fabric; to apply liquor to both sides of the fabric; to apply different liquors to either side of the fabric; or to apply two different liquors consecutively to a single side of the fabric. The system is also suitable for finishing narrow fabrics such as bands and ribbons.

Montex has also designed a Twin Therm system used for special coating processes and, technical and non-wovens applications, which allows different finishing temperatures in both the upper and lower nozzle systems of the Montex stenter. This is ideal for applications such as automobile carpets where different temperatures are required on both sides of the product.

The company is also set to launch Montex Allround modular coating head and advanced solutions for coating and finishing of technical textiles and nonwovens, at the Techtextil exhibition to be held in Germany from May 4-7, 2015. (GK)
