Transfer Printing Felts

BOMBINO Nomex® felt is used on a heat transfer printing calender. Synthetic fabrics are usually printed on this calender using high temperatures (up to 230°C / 450°F).

The prints on the papers are transferred to the fabric using high temperature under pressure. The purpose of the sublimation felt is to press the fabric against the printed paper, both against the heated drum. The contact between the fabric and the printed paper needs to be long enough, to ensure the transfer of the dyestuffs to the fabric. Heat transfer printing is an economical way to print synthetic fabrics.

These machines can also be used for the following processes :

• Laminating
• Calendering
• Placard transfer printing (banners).

For special applications, a silicone coating can be applied. BOMBINO Nomex® (aramid) felts are ideal for a high regularity transfer printing.

These felts are used on the following machines : Klieverik, Monti, Transmatic, Lemaire, Practix, Sorim, Studio FX, Stork, Bates, Wuppertal, Kristall, Sublistatic, Gessner, Bizmak, S.T.M., Singer, KMT, MOGK, TURAL MAKINA,...

BOMBINO Nomex felts (aramid felts) are used on Textile compactor felts or calendering machines in Textile Dyeing houses.

Bombinobelts compacting felts are used in the compacting machines to facilitate the pre-shrinkage and stabilization of knitted fabrics (this is why they can be called shrinking felts) and improve the fabric handle. The shrinkage required (between 2 and 10%) is mechanically given on both sides of the fabric by two consecutive endless felts using temperature (usually between 110°C & 160°C) and steam pressure.

For heat-setting processes, carried out between 180°C -200°C, Bombinobelts has developed heat resistant endless felts made with Nomex felts (aramid) fibres.

The BOMBINO felts with their optimal compacting rate give the highest dimensional stability and excellent fabric handle.

The compactor felts used in the processing section of the knit manufacturers are used on the following machines : Ferraro, Santex, Sperotto Rimar, Lafer, Albrecht, Serteks, Heliot, Ruckh, Monforts, Brückner, Dilmenler, Weiss, Lafer Türk, Mersan, Bianco, Dong Nam, BH Tech, Fong’s, Poong Kwang, Muzzi, Ssang Ho, Monti, etc.
