Air compressors in Textile Industry

AIR COMPRESSORS FOR TEXTILES

Mechanised textile manufacturing depends heavily on ELGi air compressors for reliable, clean, Class '0' oil-free compressed air to run a range of equipment and utility tools across various processes. Our superior air quality plays a significant role in the precise control of valves, cylinders, jet looms, spinning frames, sewing machines and blowguns in maximising the operation and providing the lowest ownership cost & energy efficiency for the production of high-quality textiles, garments and fabrics.

HIGH VOLUMES OF CLEAN, DRY AIR

The ISO8573-Class 7 compliance norms ensure zero traces of microbial contaminants. This means, zero risks of contamination and reduced risks of rejections, providing 100% reliable, clean Class ’0’ high-quality air. ELGi's air compressors for textiles are designed to meet the specific requirements of textile manufacturers, ensuring reliable and efficient operation.

REDUCED ENERGY COST

ELGi's range of compressed air solutions for textile and fabric manufacturing have best-in-class energy savings. Our high efficiency air ends are equipped with the in-house developed η-V profile rotors, with 4/5 lobe combination, which helps in reducing pressure losses and increases energy-efficiency of the compressed air supply.

COMPLETE RANGE OF SOLUTION

ELGi air compressors for textiles deliver unmatched air quality with a completely reliable solution to textile manufacturing by ensuring less breakdown and a standard lifetime air end warranty allowing customers to have peace of mind. The versatility and flexibility of the EG Series screw air compressor and ELGi EN Series screw compressors enable them to adapt to various textile manufacturing processes and production requirements. Its customisable features and precise control ensure optimal performance and efficiency across textile applications.

USE OF AIR COMPRESSORS IN THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY

Compressed air plays a pivotal role in textile manufacturing processes, supporting efficiency and productivity across various operations. Air compressors play a vital role in ensuring smooth production of textiles by fuelling looms and facilitating yarn texturisation. The selection and design of air compressors tailored for textile manufacturing are critical, as they cater to diverse requirements and operational scales. Whether in cotton textile units utilising airjet looms or polyester yarn facilities, the demand for compressed air remains constant, underscoring its significance in sustaining textile manufacturing operations.

Compressed air is a major utility in the textile industry where the design and selection of the compressor are of great significance as compressed air is more or less required at every stage of manufacturing. Large volumes of air are required in cotton textile industries with airjet looms and in the polyester yarn industries. Compressed air is also very critical in the PFY valued-added segment such as texturing.

Typically power looms, process houses and ginning mills require low air between 30-500 cfm. Denim spinning, medium PFY industries require medium air between 500-1,500 cfm. Large polyester yarn integrated plants, texturing units & integrated cotton textiles may require anywhere between 2,000-40,000 cfm.

OIL-FREE AIR COMPRESSOR FOR THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY

Most textile companies rely on reliable, clean Class 0 oil-free air for these processes. Using oil-free compressors in textile production reduces rejection and optimises productivity with extended service intervals. Contact with oil (from the textile air compressors) can leave grease stains on the fabric causing it to darken, making the end products unusable. So, it is recommended to choose oil-free compressed air throughout the production process and reduce risks of rejections.

Oil-free screw air compressors for the textile industry play a pivotal role which can guarantee the quality of the finished fabric where jet looms need dry and oil-free compressed air, the fine nozzle will be compressed air blowing wire harness, and the formation of eddy current, which gives the yarn shape, elastic and prominent.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why choose oil-free screw air compressors for textile manufacturing?

Oil-free screw air compressors are preferred in textile manufacturing to ensure the production of clean and high-quality compressed air. ELGi’s textile air compressors eliminate the risk of oil contamination in textile products, making them ideal for applications where air quality is critical.

What is Class 0 compressed air, and why is it important in textile manufacturing?

Class 0 compressed air refers to air that is free from contaminants, including oil, water, and particles, making it suitable for critical applications like textile manufacturing. By ensuring the highest level of air purity, Class 0 compressed air helps maintain product quality and integrity in the textile industry.
