At the forthcoming IGATEX textile machinery exhibition in Karachi, Pakistan, from April 24-26, Monforts will highlight the benefits of its latest Universal Energy Tower.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This stand-alone air\/air heat exchanger module enables recovery of the heat from the exhaust air flow of thermal systems such as existing stenters and THERMEX dyeing ranges with infrared predriers, resulting in energy savings of up to 25%,depending on the exhaust air volume and operating temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Energy Tower has an integrated fresh air fan with speed control. It offers good access to the heat exchanger modules for easy cleaning as well as a large condensate collection tank with a lint filter. Visualisation of real-time temperature and maintenance intervals is also included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Universal Energy Tower is one of a series of modular upgrades the company has developed to be added to existing finishing lines already in production, with a significant impact on a manufacturer\u2019s operational costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMonforts machines are known for their robustness and long service life, but the retrofitting of specific modules with new control and drive technology \u2013 going far beyond the basic replacement of spare parts \u2013 can have a significant impact on the performance of an existing line,\u201d says Monforts Area Sales Manager Manfred Havenith. \u201cThis is especially the case in achieving further energy savings. At this year\u2019s IGATEX, we are looking forward to discussing the possibilities with customers. Compared to a new machine, upgrades are a low-cost investment that deliver clearly defined benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Matex Eco Appli<\/strong>cator is meanwhile an alternative to the conventional padding process for energy-conscious finishing and achieving considerable savings in the energy required for drying treated fabrics. The precise amount of finishing chemical can be applied to the fabric and with less residual moisture after application of only approximately 35%, so that less drying capacity is required in the stenter, which leads to huge energy savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finishing chemicals can be evenly applied on either or both sides of the fabric, and two separate treatments can be applied to front and back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This makes the unit ideal for the production of, for example, double-performance hydrophobic\/hydrophilic fabrics for professional clothing, as well as the over dyeing or finishing of denim fabrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOther general retrofitting options available in our modular upgrade programme include a clip opener for the MONTEX stenter, which is located at the chain deflection points and reduces wear on the clip table and the blades,\u201d says Manfred Havenith. \u201cAt the same time, it ensures a quieter working atmosphere due to the smooth opening and closing of the clips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are also considerable benefits to be gained from bringing a machine\u2019s HMI up to date with our new 19-inch compact OS Windows PCs, as well as with a range of frequency converter options for bringing a machine completely up to date technically and reducing downtimes. With more than 140 years of experience, Monforts is the right partner to assist retrofits to help with sustainability and energy savings.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Monforts continues to gain significant repeat orders for its equipment from Pakistan\u2019s major vertically-integrated textile manufacturers as they seek to both expand and diversify into new markets.Customers in the regions around Pakistan\u2019s three biggest cities of Karachi, Lahore and Faisalabad include all of the main players in the fields of home textiles and denim production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese companies rely on our established technologies, including MONTEX stentering equipment, Monfortex sanforizing units and THERMEX dyeing ranges,\u201d says Manfred Havenith. \u201cAs they look to new markets in today\u2019s highly-competitive industry, we continue to assist them with trials and optimised processing parameters in developing advanced fabrics for a wide range of end-uses, both at their own plants and at our Advanced Technology Centre (ATC) in Germany.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
