Processing Technology
Tent, mesh, canopy sheets, and other products are developed by a wide range of processing technologies combining base fabric with polymeric materials. Combination of each processing approach creates a variety of products which meet customers’ needs.
Dipping
Base fabric are immersed into a bath filled with compounded vinyl chloride resin solutions, and excess resin solutions are squeezed using a mangle for impregnation. The resin stuck in the base fabric through this process is heat-treated to make a sheet.
Main properties
Polymeric solutions can be simultaneously applied to both sides of a base fabric. Compared to the other processing approaches, this processing approach can cause polymeric solutions to impregnate into the inside of a base fabric.
Main products
Truck canopy, curing mesh for construction works, tent warehouse, sheet for open-air storage etc.
Coating
While dipping can apply resins simultaneously to both sides of base fabric, coating can apply resins to one side each before heat treatment. This approach is characterized by easier control of an application volume, compared to the dipping. It is also possible to apply differently compounded resins each to the front and back.
Main properties
It is possible to apply different polymeric solutions each to the front and back of base fabric or change a color on the front and back. Selecting coating enables you to arrange the application amount of polymeric solutions from thin to thick.
Main products
High-strength membrane material, non-combustible membrane material, air blower tube, floor mat, etc.
Calendering
Calendering is a process of shaping the compounded resins into a film. The compounded resins are rolled through four big-size rollers to form a film with a predetermined thickness.
Main properties
Compared to extrusion molding or inflation molding, the loss of used polymeric materials is small, so that we can respond to an order of small lots. The turn-around time is short, which allows you to change colors or thickness easily among lots.
Main products
High-strength membrane material, non-combustible membrane material, awning tent, curing tarpaulin, flexible container bag, etc.
Laminating
A film produced by calendering is kaminated on base fabric.
Main properties
It is possible to laminate two polymetric films on base fabric simultaneously.
Main products
High-strength membrane material, non-combustible membrane material, awning tent, curing tarpaulin, flexible container bag etc.
Surface treatment
This process can form very thin layer, mainly the layer for dirt resistance.
Main properties
It can form a layer of Polymetric solutions of several microns unit. It is possible to form a thin layer on the outermost layer of membrane as an antifouling layer.
Main products
High-strength membrane material, non-combustible membrane material, sunscreen tent, membrane material for tent warehouses, etc.
