Many garment factories have suffered losses due to fabric shrinkage: finished garments that meet size standards deform after washing, resulting in numerous returns and complaints. The root cause is usually unstable fabric shrinkage rate before cutting. The fabric pre-shrinking & setting machine is the key equipment to solve this pain point.
It uses steam to fully pre-shrink the fabric and release internal stress in advance, stabilizing the shrinkage rate within a controllable range. It eliminates the awkward situation of accurate cut dimensions but shrunken finished garments after washing, making the pattern of every garment reliable and wash-resistant.
Its advantages perfectly match the actual needs of garment factories:
- Stabilize shrinkage rate: Release fabric stress beforehand for higher dimensional accuracy of cut pieces and a sharp drop in rework rate.
- Wide fabric compatibility: Adjustable humidity and speed. It works well with cotton, linen, chemical fiber and stretch fabrics.
- Compact size & high cost performance: Space-saving footprint, suitable for small and medium workshops with affordable investment.
- Dual-purpose design for better economy: It can function as a fabric relaxing machine when steam is turned off. One machine serves two purposes for better return on investment.
Fabric pre-shrinking is the first checkpoint for garment quality. The fabric pre-shrinking & setting machine locks the shrinkage rate in advance, laying a stable foundation for subsequent spreading, cutting and sewing, so the quality of finished products is well guaranteed. For garment factories pursuing quality and reputation, it is a smart choice with low investment and consistent quality.
