Over the years, ELGi has sharpened its focus on providing sustainable and energy-efficient solutions to the Middle Eastern textile industry. We have been fulfilling the efficiency requirement of the textile industry with its wide range of cost-competitive oil-free air compressors.
ELGi has a wide range of textile air compressors to offer to the Middle Eastern textile industry. Starting from a half HP piston compressor that can be used in some of the smaller textile processing and fabric units, to up to a 2000 HP centrifugal compressor that can be used in large processing and texturising units. We also offer oil-free air solutions for the textile industry with our very own oil-free screw compressors.
HIGH VOLUMES OF CLEAN, DRY AIR
The ISO8573-Class 7 compliance norms ensure zero traces of microbial contaminants resulting in zero risks of contamination and reducing the risks of rejections. 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 end 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 for 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 it to adapt to various textile manufacturing processes and production requirements. The customisable features and precise control ensure optimal performance and efficiency across textile applications.
USE OF AIR COMPRESSORS IN THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY
Compressed air helps manufacturers in the textile industry overcome several challenges. One of these is cost reduction associated with operating and sustaining compressed air tools and support systems. Textile and fabric manufacturers want to improve productivity levels and increase uptime while ensuring that there is no contamination due to the mixing of air/fluid. Another challenge that the textile industry aims to overcome is waste production by opting for sustainable solutions.
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 required at every stage of manufacturing. Large volumes of air are required in cotton textile industries having 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.
COMPRESSED AIR IN TEXTILE MANUFACTURING ARE USED IN:
- Spinning and Ginning Mills
- Air jet spinning & weaving
- Man-made fibre production – partially oriented yarn (POY) and fully oriented yarn (FOY)
- Texturing units and adding details to materials
- Winding and dying of nonwoven materials
- Pneumatic transport for PET chips and Powering cleaning tools
- Treatment of Wastewater
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 optimises production and reduces fabric rejection. Contact with oil (from the 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 to reduce the risks of rejections.
Oil-free screw air compressors for the textile industry play a pivotal role guaranting the quality of the finished fabric. The jet looms need dry and oil-free compressed air. A fine nozzle blows compressed air through the wire harness and forms eddy current, which gives the yarn shape, elastic and prominence.
