Roll-to-roll dryers might use a plaiter instead of rolling the printed material back up for several reasons, primarily related to material handling, efficiency, and quality control.
Prevention of Curling and Tension Issues
Plaiting offers key benefits over roll-to-roll dryers. It prevents curling and tension issues, allowing the fabric to lay flat and avoid distortions that can complicate processing.
Fabric plaiter designed to delicately fold materials, available in the following widths 1.8m, 2.7m & 3.2m options.
Avoidance of Wrinkles or Creases
Rolling certain materials can create pressure points that lead to wrinkles or creases, especially with delicate or stretchable textiles. Plaiting ensures the fabric lies loosely folded, reducing the risk of any unwanted marks or distortions.
Ease of Access for Further Processing
Plaited fabric is often easier to feed directly into additional processing stages, such as cutting, sewing, or packaging, without needing to unwind it. This is especially useful in continuous manufacturing or high-volume settings, where efficiency and speed are prioritised.
