Verious dyeing faults
- 1. Dyeing Faults and their remedies
- 2. Dyeing Faults Major dyeing faults which occur during are mentioned below: 1.Uneven Dyeing 2.Batch to Batch Shade variation 3.Patchy dyeing effect 4.Roll to roll variation or Meter to Meter variation 5.Crease mark 6.Dye spot 7.Wrinkle mark 8.Softener Mark
- 3. Uneven Dyeing: Causes: Uneven pretreatment (uneven scouring & bleaching). Improper color dosing. Using dyes of high fixation property. Uneven heat-setting in case of synthetic fibers. Lack of control on dyeing m/c
- 4. Remedies: By ensuring even pretreatment. By ensuring even heat-setting in case of synthetic fibers. Proper dosing of dyes and chemicals. Proper controlling of dyeing m/c Uneven Dyeing:
- 5. Batch to Batch Shade Variation: Causes: Fluctuation of Temperature. Improper dosing time of dyes & chemicals. Batch to batch weight variation of dyes and chemicals. Dyes lot variation. Improper reel speed, pump speed, liquor ratio. Improper pretreatment.
- 6. Remedies: Use standard dyes and chemicals. Maintain the same liquor ratio. Follow the standard pretreatment procedure. Maintain the same dyeing cycle. Identical dyeing procedure should be followed for the same depth of the Shade. Make sure that the operators add the right bulk chemicals at the same time and temperature in the process. The pH, hardness and sodium carbonate content of supply water should check daily. Batch to Batch Shade Variation:
- 7. Patchy Dyeing Effect: Causes: Entanglement of fabric. Faulty injection of alkali. Improper addition of color. Due to hardness of water. Due to improper salt addition. Dye migration during intermediate dyeing. Uneven heat in the machine, etc.
- 8. Remedies: By ensuring proper pretreatment. Proper dosing of dyes and chemicals. Heat should be same throughout the dye liquor. Proper salt addition. Patchy Dyeing Effect:
- 9. Roll to Roll Variation or Meter to Meter Variation: Causes: Poor migration property of dyes. Improper dyes solubility. Hardness of water. Faulty m/c speed, etc Remedies: Use standard dyes and chemicals. Proper m/c speed. Use of soft water.
- 10. Crease Mark: Causes: Poor opening of the fabric rope Shock cooling of synthetic material If pump pressure & reel speed is not equal Due to high speed m/c running Remedies: Maintaining proper reel sped & pump speed. Lower rate rising and cooling the temperature Reducing the m/c load Higher liquor ratio
- 11. Dye Spot: Causes: Improper Dissolving of dye particle in bath. Improper Dissolving of caustic soda particle in bath. Remedies: By proper dissolving of dyes & chemicals By passing the dissolved dyestuff through a fine stainless steel mesh strainer, so that the large un- dissolved particles are removed.
- 12. Wrinkle Mark: Causes: Poor opening of the fabric rope Shock cooling of synthetic material High temperature entanglement of the fabric Remedies: Maintaining proper reel sped & pump speed. Lower rate rising and cooling the temperature Higher liquor ratio
- 13. Softener Mark: Causes: Improper mixing of the Softener. Improper running time of the fabric during application of softener. Entanglement of the fabric during application of softener Remedies: Maintaining proper reel sped & pump speed. Proper Mixing of the softener before addition. Prevent the entanglement of the fabric during application of softener
