plant, which help increase its annual production to
approximately 1,500 tons dyed yarn and 27,000,000 dozens of
socks. “The reason we opted for Fong’s package dyeing machines
is the combination of the high performance, environmental
features, reliability and the excellent quality of Fong’s
products.” said Mr. Ijaz Hussain, Deputy General Manager of
Processing at Interloop. “To supply the quality and
high-value-added yarn remains a prime target of Interloop.
Fong’s ALLWIN package dyeing machine is able to produce the best
quality yarn at a very competitive cost in terms of its energy
saving and consumption of water and dye chemicals. Due to the
very low liquor ratio of ALLWIN machines, our effluent load of
water pollution is also quite low.”

Machines installed at Interloop’s Dye-house. |
Fong’s ALLWIN Machine offers an unprecedented liquor ratio as
low as 1:4. Equipped with AIR+ Advanced Intelligent Rinsing
System, the processing time for cotton yarn is as short as 276
minutes.
The total water and electricity consumption for dyeing medium
to dark shade yarns are reduced to 34l/kg and 0.43kWh/kg
respectively. The ILC Intelligent Levelling Control System
monitors the water flow through the package from outside-in to
inside-out and vice versa, which improves the levelling of
colour through out the whole package thereby reduces yarn loss
and increases reproducibility from batch to batch.
The outstanding performances of these features save total
production cost by 30%, making it a premium choice for yarn
dyeing facilities everywhere.
