TY-JL636 top-running L-Type overflow fabric dyeing machine

The TY-JL636 top-running overflow fabric dyeing machine is designed for knitted, elastic, delicate and selected home textile fabrics. Its gentle top-running circulation helps reduce fabric tension and surface friction, while supporting a wide fabric range of approximately 50–2000 GSM. The machine operates with a liquor ratio starting from approximately 1:6–7, a maximum design temperature of 140℃ and fabric speed up to 450 m/min.

The TY-JL636 top-running overflow fabric dyeing machine is designed for knitted, elastic, delicate and selected home textile fabrics where gentle fabric movement, soft hand feel and wide fabric adaptability are important.

Its top-running structure combines mechanical fabric lifting with controlled liquor circulation, helping reduce unnecessary fabric tension and surface friction during repeated circulation.

With an applicable fabric range of approximately 50–2000 GSM, liquor ratio starting from approximately 1:6–7, maximum design temperature of 140℃ and fabric speed up to 450 m/min, the TY-JL636 is suitable for dyehouses processing a relatively wide range of knitted and specialty fabrics.

What Fabric Is TY-JL636 Designed For?

TY-JL636 is mainly recommended when the fabric requires relatively gentle handling during dyeing or when the dyehouse needs one machine structure to cover a wider GSM range.

Primary Applications Knitted synthetic fabric, elastic knitted fabric, delicate fabric, velvet and brushed home textile fabric
Other Suitable Applications Selected cotton knit, nylon knit, blended fabric, cleaning cloth, towel fabric and other fabrics after application confirmation
Fabric Weight Range Approximately 50–2000 GSM
Selection Priority Gentle fabric movement, soft hand feel, surface protection and wide fabric adaptability

Final machine selection should be confirmed according to fabric composition, GSM, width, elasticity, surface sensitivity, batch loading and dyeing process.

How the Top-Running Structure Handles Fabric

During operation, the fabric is sewn into a continuous rope and repeatedly circulates through the dyeing chamber. The upper lifting system assists fabric movement, while controlled liquor circulation supports fabric transport and continuous liquor-fabric exchange.

This arrangement is particularly useful for fabrics that are sensitive to excessive pulling, stretching or surface friction. The fabric does not depend entirely on strong liquor pressure for circulation, helping provide a gentler running condition.

  • Helps reduce unnecessary tension on knitted and elastic fabrics.
  • Supports smoother fabric circulation and reduces excessive surface friction.
  • Helps maintain fabric hand feel and dimensional condition.
  • Maintains continuous liquor-fabric exchange throughout the dyeing cycle.

Main Machine Structure

Dyeing Vessel Provides the main fabric storage and dyeing space during circulation.
Upper Lifting System Assists fabric movement and reduces dependence on high liquor pressure for fabric transport.
Overflow Liquor System Provides controlled liquor flow to support fabric movement and dye liquor exchange.
Main Circulation Pump Maintains continuous dye liquor circulation through the machine.
Heat Exchanger Controls heating and cooling according to the dyeing process curve.
Dyestuff & Chemical System Used for preparation and controlled addition of dyestuff and process chemicals.

TY-JL636 Technical Data

Machine Type Top-running L-type overflow fabric dyeing machine
Liquor Ratio Approximately 1:6–7, depending on fabric and loading condition
Applicable Fabric Weight Approximately 50–2000 GSM
Maximum Design Temperature 140℃
Working Pressure 0.4 MPa
Fabric Running Speed 0–450 m/min
Heating Rate 20℃ to 140℃ in approximately 35 minutes*
Cooling Rate 140℃ to 70℃ in approximately 30 minutes*

*Heating and cooling performance depends on steam pressure, cooling water condition, machine loading and actual production environment.

Standard Model Range

Model TY-JL636-250 TY-JL636-500 TY-JL636-1000
Nominal Capacity 250 kg 500 kg 1000 kg
Number of Tubes 1 2 4
Installed Power 19.45 kW 37.35 kW 67.5 kW
Dimensions (L×W×H) 8090×1700×3080 mm 8090×3100×3080 mm 8090×6050×3080 mm

Actual loading capacity depends on fabric GSM, width, bulk density, fabric structure and process conditions. For certain fabrics, loading per tube can approach approximately 300 kg. Final capacity should be confirmed according to the customer's actual fabric.

When Should You Choose TY-JL636?

Different fabric structures require different dyeing machine designs. TY-JL636 should therefore be selected according to the actual fabric and process requirement rather than simply by batch capacity.

Machine Recommended When
TY-JL636
Top-Running Overflow
Recommended when a wider fabric range, gentle top-running circulation, soft hand feel and protection against excessive tension or surface friction are important.
TY-SF
Internal Lifting Wheel
Consider TY-SF mainly for knitted and elastic fabric around 50–350 GSM when lower liquor ratio and low-tension fabric handling have higher priority.
TY-JL631
Down-Running Long-Tube
Consider TY-JL631 mainly for woven fabric where a long-tube down-running structure and higher fabric running speed are more suitable for production.

After-Dyeing Processing

After dyeing, knitted fabric may continue through downstream processes such as de-twisting, slitting, scouring or washing, squeezing, compacting and inspection, depending on the fabric structure and required finishing result.

For tubular knitted fabric that needs to be opened into full width after dyeing, an after-dyeing de-twisting, slitting, scouring and squeezing system can combine several downstream processes before further finishing.

For knitted fabrics requiring improved dimensional stability and surface appearance after dyeing, open-width knitted fabric compacting equipment may be included as part of the downstream finishing process.

Optional Configuration

The TY-JL636 can be configured according to production requirements, automation level and factory utilities. Available options may include:

  • High-speed draining system
  • Water inlet flow meter
  • Hot water tank
  • Second Dyestuff tank for dye and chemical preparation
  • Swinging device for outer reel
  • Proportional valve for heating and cooling
  • Semi-automatic or full-automatic control system

Information Required Before Model Recommendation

To determine whether TY-JL636 is suitable and select the correct machine size, please provide:

  1. Fabric type: knitted or woven, elastic or non-elastic
  2. Material composition: polyester, cotton, nylon, blend, etc.
  3. Fabric GSM and width
  4. Required loading capacity per batch
  5. Dyeing temperature and process requirement
  6. Heating source: steam or other available utility
  7. Main production concern: crease marks, stretching, surface damage, hand feel, uneven dyeing or operating cost

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main application of TY-JL636?

TY-JL636 is mainly intended for knitted, elastic, delicate and selected home textile fabrics where relatively gentle fabric circulation, soft hand feel and a wide applicable GSM range are important.

What is the difference between TY-JL636 and TY-SF?

Both machines can be considered for knitted fabric. TY-SF is more focused on low-tension operation and lower liquor ratio within approximately 50–350 GSM. TY-JL636 covers a wider fabric range of approximately 50–2000 GSM and is often considered when wider fabric adaptability is required.

Is TY-JL636 recommended for woven fabric?

The answer depends on the actual fabric. For general woven fabric production, a down-running long-tube machine such as TY-JL631 is normally considered first. Fabric specification should be confirmed before machine selection.

What is the liquor ratio of TY-JL636?

The liquor ratio starts from approximately 1:6–7 under suitable loading and process conditions. Actual liquor ratio varies with fabric type, GSM, loading quantity and process requirement.

How should I confirm the correct machine capacity?

Machine capacity should not be selected only by kilogram quantity. Fabric GSM, width, bulk volume and running characteristics all affect actual loading. Please provide your fabric details and required batch size so that the suitable number of tubes and machine configuration can be confirmed.
