Jet flow dyeing machine:
The instrument 31 13A JET FLOW has been conceived and built to dye fabrics.
Fabrics are inserted in the instrument chamber and the ends are sewed together in order to obtain a loop .
The continuous movement of the fabric loop is generated by the built in roller.
The dyeing bath is sprayed onto the fabric in movement and is gathered from the bottom of the chamber and
sprayed again.
Machinery process:
• The solution is filled in the dye tank and it reaches the heat exchanger where solution can
be heated which then pass onto the centrifugal pump and then to the filter chamber.
• The solution will be filtered and reaches the tubular chamber. Here the material to dye will
be loaded and the winch is rotated so that the material is also rotated.
• Again the dye liquor reaches the heat exchanger and operation is repeated for 20-30 minute
at 135°c.
• Then dye bath is cooled down, after material is taken out.

Special features and application:

• This machine can be operated at high temperature and pressure .
• This system operate at low liquor ratio (ratio of mass of dye bath to mass of fabric in dyeing
machine) so, this operation consume less water and chemical.
• Frequent movement of fabric round the jet through the machine reduces the tendency of
crease formations.

Types of jet dyeing machine:
• After incest fating the dyeing results under different conditions such as development of new
fiber blends, different construction fabrics, interaction position of jet, quantity of the dye liquor
to be present in around the fabric and the type of impact of the dye liquor on the fabric in the jet
area.

Some jet dye machines are as follows:

• overflow dyeing machine

• soft-flow dyeing machine
• Airflow dyeing machine
Advantages jet dyeing machine:
 dyeing time is short compared to beam dyeing.
 material to liquor ratio is 1:5 (or) 1:6
 production is high compared to beam dyeing machine.
 Low consumption of water.
 Short dyeing time.
 Can be easily operated at high temperatures and pressure.
 Comparatively low liquor ratios, typically ranges between 1:4 and 1:20.
 Fabrics are handled carefully and gently.
Disadvantages jet dyeing machine:
 cloth is dyed in rope form
 risk of entanglement
 chance for crease formation. \
 Cloth is dyed in rope form so there is a risk of entanglement and chance for crease
formation.
 Equipment and maintenance costs are high, foaming can be a problem, and some fabric
may be abraded in the process.
 Chance for crease formation.

Limitations of jet dyeing machine:

• High initial investment and maintenance cost.
• Limited accessibility during the dyeing process.
• Foam forming substance is to be avoided.
• Any roughness of the inside surface cause damage to cloth.
• In case cloth breakage, re-threading is complicated.

Measurement of flow rate:

fluid flow rate = area of the pipe or channel×velocity of the liquid

Q = Av
Q = liquid flow rate (m3/s or L/s)
A = area of the pipe or channel (m2)
v = velocity of the liquid (m/s)

WE can also calculate the flow rate by press bucket process.
