Why and how do you oil fibres (ensimage)?
During combing or, in any case, during top production, fibres are subject to statics that should be removed or minimised by regenerating fibre original or relaxed conditions. This operation is generally done using special oiling devices also known as ensimage systems. Generally, processing phases including oiling passages are as follows: • Combing finisher draft frame • Blending machine and blend reducer drawing frame; • Jar-emptying system or re-combing finisher drawing frame; • First passage of preparation to spinning Special mixtures of oiling and anti-static liquids are used, according to the nature of treated fibres. Some chemical fibres, however, are not treated if processed pure, since they went through an anti-static treatment during production.
