TMB- Extremely delicate treatment for first-class fibres

Machine with independent arms Suspended hank outside dyeing liquor Uniform dyeing guaranteed by efficient liquor dosage
Efficient temperature control



The TMB2000 hank-dyeing machine with arms is addressed mainly to the market for first-class yarns with very fine counts and where careful and delicate treatment is fundamental throughout the entire dyeing process. Treatment of the hanks that are suspended on arm, thus not immersed, is the best solution for those yarns which react badly to forced circulation immersion dyeing but which still require high quality uniform dyeing for the entire batch. The liquor is drawn from the vat using a variable-speed pump and is fed to the arms (made up of a perforated tube). The dye thus perfectly soaks the hanks hanging along the whole length of the arms.

It is for these reasons, and thanks to the design characteristics which guarantee quality, that the TMB2000 can compete with the traditional machines for the mass production of medium-low quality yarns.

Mezzera has always met the ever demanding market requirements and has here met an enormous design challenge. Beside the well-tested solution with fixed arms and a rotating hank displacing rod, we have added the possibility to switch off dye feeding to one or more arms as well as the rotation completely. This possibility to switch off a single arm allows that small batches can be treated, thus an energy saving.



The TMB 2000 is today equipped with:

• a new drive system with a gearmotor for each arm;

• an inverter-driven pump to ensure precise adjustment and constant liquor flow to the arms each equipped with an on-off valve to further control the liquor feeding, even when the machine is running;

• electronic limit switches that guarantee perfect bar synchronisation when stopping and starting.
