The WEKO | Protec in brief
The fluid is evenly distributed over the web through fast spinning rotor discs by centrifugal forces. Therefore, a uniform film of ultra-fine droplets is created. The WEKO | ProTec consists of two enclosed units, each with a dedicated suction pipe on top and bottom.
This solution has two enclosed elements. Either a rotor carrier unit and a catch unit on the opposite side or with two opposite rotor carrier units working according to the principle of WEKO-Sigma. This allows for high precision, single or double sided web application. The carrier includes an automatic traversing unit to open the system for easy web insertion and high serviceability. The WEKO extraction cabinet has an adjustable extraction volume as well as an exhaust air connection for customer-side piping.
A Safe and Clean Way of Textile Finishing
Thanks to the encapsulated the functional textile finishing is safe. Undoubtedly, this solution protects significantly against escaping of aerosols. Furthermore, the special design creates a clean working environment. The building of the web is easy and fast. A highly efficient extraction unit provides the desired protection, once the unit is closed.
