WEKO is changing traditional finishing andy dyeing processes to be more cost effective and environmentally friendly - with innovative and precise rotor spray technology.

Todays traditional continuous dyeing & finishing method is padding. Since decades it is a well-known application method and bring high flexibility. Everyone knows how to use it most efficient.

But is it really cutting-edge technology?
Is the latest padding technology the most cost, energy, waste and water saving working principle?

The Padder also comes with many disadvantages because it is a full contact system (dip and squeeze):

• bath contamination and tailing
• center-side variations
• only double-sided application possible
• permanent full penetration and high pick-up from 50-130%.
• high required drying capacity due to high pick-up
• high consumption of chemicals and water
• mechanical stress on the fabric
• high application tolerance

 

The revolution in Textile finishing and dyeing - contactless minimum rotor spray application.
Easily could be brought down the wet pick-up and therefore reducing the high drying energy and your carbon footprint.

Due to the non-contact, uniform application, there is no tailing or listing and you get an excellent and easy reproducible quality. Single-sided, double-sided or different functions per side can be applied. The penetration level can also be influenced and adapted to the respective application. The high chemical flexibility – also compared to other spray technologies - ensures versatile use.

Non-contact spray dyeing opens up completely new possibilities in fashion design - directly in the dyeing process.

In traditional cotton continuous dyeing the complete Hotflue-section of a PDPS line could be saved by using our PS²-technology in Reactive or VAT Dyeing. On Polyester we could offer the most advanced and compact solution for Continuous Pigment or Disperse Dyeing.

For DENIM fabrics, one-sided dyeing, different colors per side or overdyeing without penetration is easily possible. In DENIM Slasher-Dyeing also multicolor dyeing using several dyes in one liquor or one after the other (dye baths are without contact and remain contamination-free) bringing new Designs to the market. Deliberate creation of streakiness, vintage or salt&pepper look and much more by varying the spray parameters. Open up new possibilities for your customers.

Dye classes

• Reactive
• VAT
• Dispersion

Where can you use the non-contact minimum application?

In Textile they are typically used on stenter frames, coating lines or dyeing ranges.
