Folding Equipment Description:

OPTIONS

+ Production monitoring system.

+ Master/slave system

+Multiple stacker stations for automatic sorting.

+Extended lateral fold section.

POSSIBILITIES

The T-APPAREL folding machine creates the perfect solution for folding and stacking all kinds of apparel, like T-shirts, polo shirts, undershirts, tops, singlets, trousers, etc. Shirts can have short sleeves as well as long sleeves.

The T- APPAREL has many different folding patterns and meets today’s requirement in the textile business.

Once the pieces are folded, they are collected on a (lifting) stacker station. As soon as the required stack height is achieved, the pile is put on the final delivery belt. This belt can be located on the left or right side and delivering the piles either to front or the rear of the machine.

The T-APPAREL is able to fold pieces up to 1600x1200mm.

Pieces are put on the infeed conveyor belt. For a perfect feeding quality, the conveyor belt can be selected between three running modes: automatic start, after pressing a push button (used for pieces with long sleeves), automatic start after infeed sensor is covered or continuously running.

Apparels can be fed easily with shoulders upwards, so (long) sleeves could easily be folded by hand.

The T- APPAREL is provided with a quality stop feature. With this feature enabled, piece make an additional stop for quality correction before the actual folds are made. This is only needed for special or complicated apparels.

LATERAL FOLD PRINCIPLE

The T- APPAREL is able to make all kinds of folding patterns. After feeding the apparel, piece enters the lateral fold section. The lateral folds are made by air in combination with position controlled folding templates. The length of each piece is measured automatically for best folding result. Specially designed for textile applications, the primary folds ensure high quality folding. The controlled stop position with curved templates, specially designed for textile folding, could be applied for additional folding quality (optional).

The long lateral fold section allows all sizes to be folded.

After the lateral fold section, the piece enters the cross fold section. Up to 2 cross folds can be made, offering all kinds of folding patterns required nowadays. In order to secure stable and high quality folds, both cross folds are made by air assisted reversing belts. Tight folded pieces are obtained as pieces are continuously kept between belts. The elastic belts ensure that the cross fold automatically adapts on thin as well as thick pieces. These belts are also pressing the piece, creating a tight folded result. Due to the cross fold design the folded apparel is presented with collar upwards.

SORTING & STACKING PRINCIPLE

After the cross folding, the folded apparel is put on a (lifting) stacker station. This stacker station collects the folded apparels. Once the required stack height is achieved, the stacker station lowers and put the pile on the final incline belt. The stacker station transfers the piece by means of sliding mechanism ensuring a smooth and straight transfer onto the incline belt.
