Low tension and uniform dyeing solutions for knitted fabric

Feb 04, 2026

Knitted fabric is highly sensitive to tension, creasing and uneven dye penetration during the dyeing process. Compared with woven fabric, knitted materials are more elastic and prone to deformation, making machine structure and fabric transport design critical factors for dyeing quality.

Wuxi Shin Tong Yunn provides specialized knitted fabric dyeing machine designed to achieve low tension fabric movement, uniform dye circulation and stable color consistency, helping dye houses improve fabric quality while increasing production efficiency.

 

Common Challenges in Knitted Fabric Dyeing

  • During high-speed and high-capacity dyeing, knitted fabric often face the following issues:
  • Excessive fabric tension leading to elongation or fabric breakage
  • Creasing and rope marks caused by unstable fabric movement
  • Uneven dye penetration and poor color saturation
  • Tube-to-tube color difference (shade variation)
  • Blockage caused by fiber lint accumulation in circulation systems

Addressing these challenges requires not only process control, but also machine structures specifically be optimized for knitted fabric.

 

Our Dyeing Solutions for Knitted Fabrics

Wuxi Shin Tong Yunn knitted fabric dyeing solutions focus on three key principles:

 

 Low Tension Fabric Transport

By optimizing fabric lifting height, rope path design and nozzle pressure balance, our machine significantly reduce mechanical stress on knitted fabric throughout the dyeing cycle.

 

High-Efficiency Dye Liquor Circulation

Advanced nozzle systems and circulation designs increase the number of dye liquor exchanges between fabric and bath, improving dye uniformity and color saturation while reducing processing time.

 

Stable and Controllable Process Parameters

Integrated temperature control, steam ratio regulation and lint removal system ensure consistent dyeing conditions from batch to batch.

 

Recommended Machine Model for Knitted Fabric Dyeing

Internal Lifting Wheel Fabric Dyeing Machine
