“Printing and dyeing is the key process that gives textiles colour, function and quality, and also the stage where energy consumption, water consumption and emissions are concentrated. At this edition, printing, dyeing and finishing equipment will continue to follow the main line of “digitalisation, intelligence and green environmental protection”, moving from stand-alone automation towards full-process digital control and green, low-carbon production.”
Dyeing, finishing and printing equipment continues to develop towards digitalisation, intelligence and green, low-carbon production, raising equipment performance around high quality, high efficiency, low energy consumption and low emissions. Energy-saving and environmental technologies such as low liquor ratio dyeing, low-water and waterless processing, cold pad-batch dyeing, high-efficiency washing and waste heat recovery are maturing; digital inkjet printing is moving towards higher speed, higher precision and wider product adaptability; automatic weighing and dispensing of dyes and chemicals, intelligent setting of process parameters, online detection of colour deviation and defects, and real-time monitoring of energy and water consumption enable precise process control and product quality traceability. Meanwhile, intelligent three-dimensional warehousing, automatic fabric loading and unloading, AGV logistics and automatic finished-product packaging will be more widely applied in digital printing and dyeing workshops. Equipment is markedly more flexible, enabling rapid order changeover and intelligent switching of process parameters in small-batch, multi-variety production, better meeting the needs of small orders, quick response and flexible manufacturing.
At this edition, dyeing and finishing machinery will be concentrated in Halls 7.1 and 8.1, and printing machinery in Hall 8.2. Global dyeing and finishing machinery manufacturers including Fong’s, Yoantion, ZGL, Taida Renxin, Jiangsu Red Flag, Santex, Brückner, VANWYK, Santex Rimar and Thies together with domestic and international printing machinery manufacturers including Atexco, Jilong, Huisheng, Shenzhen Hongmei, Flora, Xiwang Hi-Tech, DPI, Epson, Konica Minolta, MS and MONTI, will present full-process digital equipment and smart printing and dyeing plant solutions covering pretreatment, dyeing, printing, finishing and intelligent logistics. With green processes and smart manufacturing they help the industry improve quality and efficiency, build momentum for new quality productive forces, and drive the printing and dyeing industry towards green, intelligent and high-end development.
