OUR PRODUCTS 1) Steam Cabinet Steam boarding machines "Steam Cabinet" which is available in two different version, one for socks and the other for tights. This machines is suitable for all types of yarns and use a boarding system with a first phase in which the socks/tights are boarded with steam up to 5 bar of pressure and then there is the aspiration and drying with hot air. A continuous operating cycle it's possible thanks to a rotating glass door: the boarding leg forms are fixed to the rotating system, so that while a set of socks is located within the steam chamber and it's boarded, the other set of forms is located outside, allowing the operator to remove the socks freshly boarded and prepare the next ones. The machine can be provided with an electric steam generator (located inside so overall dimensions don't change) or it's also possible for you to use your own steam source (max 5 bar). Production: from 350 to 200 pairs/hour with 1 operator (SOCKS version) from 175 to 100 pairs/hour with 1 operator (TIGHTS version) You'll find a more detailed description at our webpage: http://www.rotostiro.net/en/steam- boarding/steam-cabinet-socks

OUR PRODUCTS

1) Steam Cabinet

Steam boarding machines "Steam Cabinet" which is available in two different version, one for socks and the other for tights. This machines is suitable for all types of yarns and use a boarding system with a first phase in which the socks/tights are boarded with steam up to 5 bar of pressure and then there is the aspiration and drying with hot air. A continuous operating cycle it's possible thanks to a rotating glass door: the boarding leg forms are fixed to the rotating system, so that while a set of socks is located within the steam chamber and it's boarded, the other set of forms is located outside, allowing the operator to remove the socks freshly boarded and prepare the next ones.

The machine can be provided with an electric steam generator (located inside so overall dimensions don't change) or it's also possible for you to use your own steam source (max 5 bar).

Production: from 350 to 200 pairs/hour with 1 operator (SOCKS version) from 175 to 100 pairs/hour with 1 operator (TIGHTS version)

2) Rotostiro R24E

Alternatively, to keep costs down maintaining high quality, can be made a “steam ironing effect”, rather than using a traditional steam boarding machine, with the Rotostiro R24E, using wet and centrifuged socks.With Rotostiro R24E it's possible boarding wet (and centrifuged) socks obtaining in this way a steam pressing effect: the moisture of the sock in contact with the electrical form at temperatures above 100°C turns into steam and crosses the sock from the inside towards the outside. In this way the energy consumption is also significantly lower (5 KWh) than using traditional machinery for steam ironing.

This machine works with 24 electrical boarding forms (heating element inside) and it's suitable for both socks and tights (it's sufficient changing the boarding forms, using different sizes)

Production: from 600 to 360 (higher socks) pairs/hour with 2 operators, from 300 to 180 pairs/hour with 1 operator

Please note that nylon items must be boarded only dry: if wet and centrifuged there is the risk of pull threads. For nylon it isn't possible to use this machine to obtain a "steam boarding effect", must be used a "real" steam machine like the Steam cabinet machine.

3) Rotostiro R12E

This is the smaller version of the R24E and works with 12 electric boarding forms. It's used only with dry socks/tights because the cycle of working is faster so using wet socks there isn't enough time to have a complete boarding. The production it's the same, but the effective time of boarding it's the half compared to R24E.

For the same reason (a different time of boarding), for high quality classic socks it's reccomended the previous machine (R24E) also if it's used the standard (dry) electric boarding.

Rotostiro R12E is used mainly for sport socks.

4) Termocollant

Termocollant: a pre-boarding machine for hosiery circular knitting machine.

The Termocollant is used for those tights which need pre-boarding. It allows pre-boarding directly on the hosiery circular knitting machine, just before they are unloaded, without any additional use of manpower because the process is automated. Our device is an evolution which replace the tradition ejection system of the knitting machines.

The pre-boarding takes place through infrared heating immediatly after knitting:• avoiding the risk of pull threads;• reducing the risk of uneven shrinkage, as can happen with the pre-fixing in the

autoclave due to the weight of the overlying pantyhoses which prevents those towards the bottom to move freely during the heat-shrinking;

• avoiding the fixing of folds which can occur in autoclave and which would make more difficult the subsequent boarding;

• it improve the quality of the dyeing since it avoids stains due to residual oil in the yarn thanks to the continuous air flow and the action of infrared rays which cause the evaporation of the lubricating oil.

Termocollant is suitable also for heavy denier and medicals stockings.

Installation is really easy. For mechanical installation the fixing screw and the 2 circular pipe unions (aspiration of air) are of the same size and the same distance of the traditional ejection device mounted on circular knitting machines. The air tube (the one that makes the puff for ejection) that is already being used in traditional ejection device has the same attack also to our Termocollant. The time intervals should be programmed on the circular machine terminal and it should be postponed as to keep the pantyhose inside the Termocollant as long as possible, it should be ejected just before arrive the next pantyhose.

5) Other machines

• We produce also other electric boarding machines such as Rotostiro R6 and R12 BODY that are similar to R12E and R24E but are of different measures and are equipped with different boarding forms for body or underwear (some picture available here: http://www.rotostiro.net/en/electric-ironing/rotostiro/r6-r12-body ).

• We produce also electric boarding machine with automatic unloading system but due to higher costs and due to the fact that generally the quality of boarding is better with manual system than any type of automatic unloading system, we sell mainly other machines and automatic machine were sold prevalently in country were manpower costs are higher.

6) Boarding tables

We supply also boarding table completed with electric boarding forms.Different sizes of ironing tables are provided: they can be equipped with 4, 6, 8 or 12 thermostatic or electronic bases (bases with electronic card are more accurate than the thermostat in the setting of the temperature).

7) Boarding leg forms

We produce electric boarding forms (with inner heating elements) and boarding forms for steam machines. We can make also not-standard forms starting from drawing or measures.
