Woven filter fabrics are textile materials composed of interlaced threads or fibers in a woven pattern. They are designed to have specific filtration properties, such as pore size, permeability, and durability. Woven filter fabrics are commonly used in a wide range of industries and applications where filtration is required. Some common uses of woven filter fabrics include: Industrial Filtration: Woven filter fabrics are extensively used in industrial processes for liquid and air filtration. They can be found in applications such as oil and gas filtration, chemical processing, water treatment, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and food and beverage processing. Dust Collection: Woven filter fabrics are utilized in dust collection systems to capture and filter airborne dust and particles. They are commonly used in industries like woodworking, metalworking, construction, and mining to improve air quality and protect workers' health. HVAC Filtration: Woven filter fabrics are employed...

A good offset printing blanket needs optimization in various blanket parameters.At IMPRINT we engineer each parameter of the offset printing blanket to ensure best print quality and blanket durability. These parameters include: Thickness: The blanket's thickness should be suitable for the printing application and the type of printing press being used. It needs to be thick enough to ensure proper ink transfer while maintaining the desired print quality. Hardness: The hardness of the blanket affects the ink transfer and image reproduction. It should be chosen based on the printing surface and the desired print results. Softer blankets provide better conformability, while harder blankets offer durability and sharper image reproduction. Surface Texture: The surface texture of the blanket can be smooth or rough. The choice depends on the specific printing requirements and the characteristics of the printing material. The texture affects ink transfer and can im...

Offset print media refers to a method of printing used in the production of various printed materials such as newspapers, magazines, brochures, books, and more. It is a traditional printing technique that involves transferring ink from a plate to a rubber blanket and then onto the printing surface, typically paper. The process of offset printing involves several steps. First, the content to be printed is transferred onto metal plates through a photographic process or computer-to-plate technology. These plates are then mounted onto cylinders on the printing press. Ink is applied to the plates, and it adheres to the image areas while being repelled by the non-image areas. Next, a rubber blanket cylinder comes into contact with the plates and receives the inked image. The image is then transferred from the rubber blanket cylinder onto the paper or other printing material as it passes through the press. This indirect transfer of ink is why it is...

TORO presents a diverse range of substrates, allowing for countless opportunities to skillfully match material characteristics with the specific requirements of customers' applications. Depending on the desired performance attributes for a particular use, our substrates can be crafted through knitting, weaving, or non-woven techniques. Here is the list of commonly used substrates for coating. Cotton:     Natural cellulosic fiber exhibits good abrasion resistance.     It demonstrates good adhesion to rubber compounds.     It possesses excellent resistance to alkalis, although it degrades when exposed to hot acids.     The fiber remains resistant to melting even at high temperatures. Polyester:     This multifunctional synthetic fiber has the ability to absorb oil and grease.     It exhibits...

The choice between solvent-based and water-based coatings depends on various factors, such as intended use, environmental considerations, performance requirements, and regulatory compliance.  A solvent-based coating is a type of coating that uses organic solvents as the primary carrier. The organic solvents serve as a medium to disperse the other components of the coating. When the coating is applied, the solvents evaporate, leaving behind a solid film of resins and pigments on the surface.  A water-based coating, as the name suggests, uses water as the primary carrier instead of organic solvents. When the coating is applied, the water evaporate, leaving behind a solid film of resins and pigments on the surface. TORO coated fabric are available in both water and solvent based coating options Solvent-Based Coatings: Composition: Organic solvents Resins Pigments Additives Volatile organic...

Coated fabrics have a wide range of applications across various industries due to their enhanced properties and versatility. While there are several application area of coated fabric, a few important ones are highlighted in this post. For each application,  TORO coated fabrics are engineered to achieve the desired functional requirement. Automotive Industry: Coated fabrics are used in the automotive industry for manufacturing seat covers, door panels, headliners, and other interior components. They offer resistance to abrasion, UV radiation, moisture, and chemicals, while also providing aesthetic appeal. Aerospace Industry: In the aerospace sector, coated fabrics find application in aircraft interiors, such as seat upholstery, cabin linings, and cargo covers. These fabrics need to comply with stringent fire safety regulations and offer durability, lightweight properties, and resistance to extreme temperatures. Outdoor Equipment and Protective ...

Coating is a process in which a polymeric layer is applied directly to one or both surfaces of the fabric. The polymer coating must adhere to the textile and a blade or similar aperture controls the thickness of the viscous polymer. The coated fabric is heated and the polymer is cured (that is, polymerized). Where a thick coating is required this may be built up by applying successive coating layers, layer on layer, Interlayer adhesion must therefore be high. Finally, a thin top layer may be applied for aesthetic or technical enhancement of the coating. The coating serves various purposes, depending on the desired properties of the final fabric. It can provide protection against water, moisture, chemicals, or UV radiation. It can also improve the fabric's durability, strength, and resistance to abrasion or tear. Additionally, the coating can alter the fabric's appearance by adding texture, gloss, or other visual effects.   Depending upon the end-us...
