Monforts Offers New Sanforizors

A. Monforts Textilmaschinen GmbH & Co. KG, Germany, now offers newly redesigned compressive shrinkage sanforizors for knitted and woven fabrics.

The machines — Monfortex for wovens and Toptex for knits — feature increased residual shrinkage and production speeds, as well as new, more efficient automatic grinder and edge cooling system, both of which extend service life of the belt. Simplified belt removal requires just one shift rather than the two days associated with competitive sanforizors. New centralized water and steam connections enable improved maintenance access, while new cooling-water filtration and recovery techniques enable a 40-percent reduction in water consumption.
