Baldwin Technology will be showcasing its TexCoat G4 non-contact precision spray fabric-finishing system at the Techtextil North America trade show from August 23-25, in Raleigh, North Carolina, at stand 1117.
With extensive sustainability benefits, unprecedented tracking and process control and Industry 4.0 integration, the TexCoat G4 provides consistently high-quality fabric finishing, with no chemistry waste, and significantly reduced water and energy consumption.
“We are extremely proud to introduce the TexCoat G4 to the US textile industry,” said Rick Stanford, business development leader for the US at Baldwin. “After receiving incredibly positive reviews during the launch at ITMA 2019, the TexCoat G4 has proven its efficiency for textile manufacturers across Europe and in North and Central America. We are confident of meeting the demands of American manufacturers for profitability and sustainability, with great margins.”
Baldwin’s non-contact spray technology eliminates chemistry dilution in wet-on-wet processes. The TexCoat G4 consistently and uniformly sprays chemistry across the fabric surface and applies it only where needed, on one or both sides. Customers can expect no bath contamination during the finishing process, as well as minimal downtime during changeovers, which are made easy with recipe management that includes automated chemistry and coverage selection.
The TexCoat G4 also enhances sustainability by wasting no chemistry during colour, fabric or chemistry changeovers, and because only the required chemistry volume is applied to the fabric, wet pick-up levels can be reduced by up to 50% – leading to 50% less water and energy consumption. Furthermore, in single-side applications, drying steps can be eliminated for various textiles, including those that are back-coated and laminated, thereby streamlining and simplifying the production process.
