Customized spunbond, composite and meltblown lines
FARÈ manufactures complete spunbond, composite and meltblown lines with customized solutions for the production of nonwovens suitable to cover all market demand from hygienic to technical applications.
Spunbond Technology
What does it mean Spunbond?
The wording is used to identify nonwoven fabrics bonded mechanically, thermally or chemically which are produced by depositing continuous thin filaments in a random but uniform manner.
Process for Spunbond production
The polymer in the form of virgin granules of virgin materials or, in case of polyester, in the form of flakes out of bottles recycling or other industrial products, is extruded through our equipment to form continuous filaments which are conditioned, drawn and deposited over a suitable moving surface (forming belt), creating a web. At the end of the process, the continuous filaments are bonded mechanically, thermally or chemically through equipment like needling machines, hydroentangling systems, smooth or engraved calenders, binder application systems and packed in rolls.
Composite technology
What does it mean Composite?
This wording identifies nonwoven fabrics made of a mix of Spunbond and Meltblown processes.
Process for Composite production
A combination of Spunbond (S) and Meltblown (M) equipment is used in sequence to create nonwoven fabrics structures like SMS where typically the outer layers are made by spunbond process and inner layer(s) are made by Meltblown process. Similarly to the Spunbond technology, the Composite nonwoven fabrics are bonded mechanically, thermally or chemically and packed in rolls.
Meltblown technology
What does it mean Meltblown?
It is a wording used to identify a nonwoven fabric characterized by extremely thin filaments (more than ten time thinner than spunbond filaments).
Process for Meltblown production
Similarly to the spunbond process, the polymer is extruded and spun while the drawing step is made using high speed hot compressed air forming extremely thin filaments (fibrils) which are conditioned and collected over a suitable moving surface (forming belt) creating a web which can be optionally calendered.
