Rotary-cylinder singeing machine:
In this
type of singeing machine, the cloth passes over and in contact with a heated
rotary cylinder made of copper or cast iron. The rotary cylinder has internal
firing and revolves slowly so that constantly a fresh surface of the roller
comes in contact with the cloth. The direction of rotation of the cylinder is
opposite to the direction of the fabric so that the protruding fibers or nap of
the fabric is raised.
This
type of machine is particularly suitable for the singeing of velvets and other
pile fabrics.
If the singeing of both sides of
the fabric is required, then two cylinder are employed, one for each side of
the fabric.
