Troubleshooting Undesirable
Finishes
Problem:
Possible Causes/Corrective Action:
Wrinkles in the fabric are not removed.
There is not enough moisture in the fabric. Dry fabric cannot be
ironed.
The fabric is not completely dry.
1. The roll temperature is too low. Try a higher temperature, but
do not exceed the maximum temperature tolerance of the most
sensitive fiber.
2. The feed speed is too fast. Adjust the speed so the fabric is dry
after one pass.
3. The fabric moisture content is too high.
a. Provide a longer washer extraction time.
b. Provide a higher washer g-force extraction speed.
c. Partially dry (in a tumbler) the linen before finishing.
There are lengthwise wrinkles in the fabric.
The operators must stretch the fabric side to side during the feed
process.
There are crosswise wrinkles in the fabric.
1. There is insufficient wax on the shoe.
2. The return ribbon travel is uneven.
a. The return drive roll could be slipping on the ribbons. This
could be caused by the presence of fabric softener on the
roll. Fabric softener should not be used on fabrics that will
be ironed.
b. The ribbon length is uneven. Uneven length ribbons will
not drive the roll evenly.
Only a few articles can be ironed before the finish quality
deteriorates. The operators must wait a few minutes before
proceeding in order to process linen to the proper finish.
1. There is too much water in the fabric. Large articles with
excessive water content will remove a great amount of heat
from the roll or shoe. This will reduce the roll or shoe
temperature below that required to obtain an acceptable dry
and finish. In order to compensate the operators may set the
temperature too high. This may scorch the first items and can
also damage the mechanical and electrical systems of the
finisher.
2. The feeder speed is too fast. Slow down the feed speed.
There is color or staining on the finished material.
The wash process has not cleaned the fabric. Impurities such as soil,
minerals, sour or detergent may still be present in the fabric. Since
only the water is removed from the fabric during the finishing
process, any impurities will remain as a deposit on the linen or
finisher surfaces.
The fabric is scorched.
The roll or shoe temperature is too high. Reduce the temperature.
NOTE: The entire width of the finisher should be used to
prevent overheating the unused surface. Small articles should be
processed in a pattern that utilizes the entire width.
