Monforts, a global leader among the manufacturers and exporters of textile machines, is set to launch its Montex Allround modular coating head and advanced solutions for coating and finishing of technical textiles and nonwovens, at the Techtextil exhibiton in Germany.

In seeking to cater to the flexibility in processing technology demanded by wide-ranging products of technical textile industry, Monforts has developed the new Montex Allround, a modular, interchangeable coating system for technical textiles.

The patented Montex Allround offers considerable benefits to manufacturers of coated technical textiles – and not least in respect of its flexibility. The modular coating heads of the system can be quickly and easily changed by a specially-designed undercarriage from the side of the unit, allowing it to be adapted for different applications, or, for easy cleaning purposes of the coating head outside the machine range, the company said in a press release.

There are modules for knife and slot die coating, in addition to those suitable for flexure, gravure, and rotary-screen printing. Special modules for powder scattering and spraying are also available. The unit can be enclosed with a special casing when the handling of fabrics treated with organic or even toxic solvents is taking place.

The Montex Allround, which incorporates a spreading unit and a pulling device along with the selected coating head, allows for the tension free coating of the substrate along a greatly-reduced web path and a very short period of open coating prior to it entering the dryer; ensuring significantly less chance of contamination.
