SPREADING

INTRODUCTION
The process of rolling out layer after layer of cloth, smoothly without wrinkles, in such a manner that the selvedge on one side of the cloth is straight, and parallel to that edge of the cutting table. Spreading fabric for cutting may be done in a variety of ways.

Spreading Machines by Mode

A variety of machinery may be used for spreading fabrics. Although investment is often a concern in choosing equipment, the deciding factor on what type of spreading machine is required is made by three factors.
First, what modes of spreading are required of the machine Second, how critical is the need to spread tension free Third, how heavy (and what diameter) will the rolls of fabric be (and what diameter) as they arrive from the mill

AUTOMATIC CHANGING DEVICE

automatic Turntable
The most common has all the features of the automatic rolling rack, may use either catchers or a cut-off knife mechanism, and is self powered. This machine still requires the spreader to manually rotate the fabric turntable rack when spreading F/F modes of spreading. And other is The FULLY automatic turntable spreader is also capable of rotating the fabric as well.

Automatic Rolling Rack

Has a drive motor and end switches that permit the machine to automatically drive itself from beginning to the end of the table and back. The spreader then is required to look for damages during spreading and manage the rolls of fabric mounting them and changing them. These machines may have a ride-on platform for the operator to travel with the machine saving them from walking all day.

DEFECT SCANNERS

DAMAGE CONTROL MARK SENSORS

Newest advances in spreading systems Use of automatic sensors to identify damages in the fabric. Mounted with a sensor that detects the tape as it passes through the electric edge control eye. The sensor stops the spreading machine permitting the spreader to locate the damage and remove it during the spreading process. Very much useful in face to face spreading. Permits higher spreading speeds at the same time.

Semi Automatic Rolling Rack with Electric Eye and Catchers

Designed with electric eye edge Sensors that use a servo motor to shift the rack side to side to align the selvedge on the control side of the table. This saves the spreader time. a mechanical catcher device is used (A mechanized cloth weight that automatically lifts and tucks the fabric under it) which is also a time saving device.

FABRIC CONTROLLING DEVICES

The Vacuum Table

Revolutionary technology Replacing the use of cloth weights Through small holes in the cutting table surface, air is sucked out of the lay. This compresses the lay and stabilizes it.

Tubular Knit Fabric Spreader

Tubular knit fabrics pose a special challenge. As two layers of fabric are being placed on the table from the roll simultaneously, a frame is inserted inside the tube of fabric to control both layers as they pass through the machine. The frame prevents twisting or folding as the fabric is placed on the table. Positive feed rollers reduce the tension in the fabric during spreading.

Air Floatation Tables

Cutting tables that have a system of air jets mounted down the center of the table. This facilitates moving either a block, or the entire spread down the table. This technology facilitates spreading down the length of a long table, then easily moving the entire spread to the automatic cutting system.

F4 AUTOMATIC SPREADING MACHINE

Features
Machine returns back to original position once fabric runs empty. The machine power will automatically shut off upon 5 minutes idle. The spread laid fabric is not pulled when the emergency stop triggers. The streamline shape can reduce the wind disturbance, noise and vibe ration. PLC Touch Panel, user-friendly operation system. Non-tension spreading. Simple operation increases production efficiently and also ensures the best quality. Tilting Fabric Bucket enables the fabric loading easier.

Main functions
Touch panel display: Easy to set up the length; number of layer, speed and steps. Cutting device: The auto-cutter can be easily dismounted. Travel length and speed of cutter are adjustable. Catcher: Can work for both one way and face to face. Automatic fabric relaxing control: To relax the fabric in advance and release the tension during spreading the fabric. Edge control device: Automatic edge control during spreading fabric. Fabric loading sensor: Machine returns back to original position once fabric runs empty. Automatic lifting device: It is automatic lifting according to the layer of cloth during spreading the fabric. The lifting gauge can be adjusted. Emergency stop: The brake lines are under two sides of table, it can be efficiently pulled upon emergency.
