Due to the unique machine design, SSM can offer a versatile machine for both, muff preparation (cone to muff) as well as unrolling of the muffs after dyeing (muff to cone). For the customer this results in higher flexibility, lower investment costs and last but not least, more profit.
Muff dyeing
The residual elasticity of high elastic Polyamide (PA) and Polyester (PES) draw twist textured yarns (DTY) after dyeing, strongly depends on how the yarn has been wound and dyed.
Package dyeing enables a good dye quality but reduces the elasticity. For certain yarns this is sufficient, but for high elastic filament yarn not. For this application, muff dyeing is the best solution.
