XTY-30 Door Fuji Xinchang Needle Plate

Product Overview

This needle plate is a specialized accessory for textile printing and dyeing equipment. It is primarily mounted onto the machine’s needle clamp assembly using screws, with the core function of securing and clamping the fabric edges. It moves in sync with the equipment’s chain to convey the fabric, thereby assisting in the fabric stretching and setting process. Designed specifically for the high-temperature, heavy-load conditions typical of textile printing and dyeing operations, this product features robust steel needles that are resistant to loosening and deformation at elevated temperatures. It effectively addresses common issues associated with traditional needle plates—such as needle loss, bending, breakage, snagging, and rust—ensuring continuous, stable operation of the production line and improving the yield of qualified finished fabrics.

Working Principle

During the fabric stretching and setting stage of textile printing and dyeing, the fabric edges must be consistently and stably clamped to maintain uniform width under high-temperature setting conditions, preventing shrinkage, wrinkling, and other quality defects. This needle plate is secured to the needle clamp via screws, with its steel needles precisely piercing and fixing both edges of the fabric. As the machine chain drives the needle clamp and needle plate in unison, the fixed fabric is conveyed forward under constant tension into the high-temperature setting zone, where it undergoes the stretching and setting process. Throughout the entire conveying process, the needle plate’s steel needles maintain steady clamping force without loosening or shifting, ensuring consistent fabric width and meeting the stringent precision requirements of textile printing and dyeing.

Core Advantages

1. Robust Steel Needles Resistant to Loosening: The steel needles on this plate feature a secure mounting structure that prevents needle loss even during prolonged, high-frequency operation with the chain. This eliminates the need for frequent shutdowns to replace needles, significantly reducing maintenance downtime on the production line.
2. High-Temperature Resistance and Shape Retention: Designed to withstand the extreme heat of the setting process, both the overall structure of the needle plate and its steel needles can endure the high-temperature environment without deforming or shifting, maintaining stable clamping accuracy over long-term use.
3. Effective Prevention of Snagging: The neatly arranged needle installation leaves no protruding burrs or loose components, minimizing the risk of snagging fabric fibers during conveyance. This helps avoid defects such as snags and tears, enhancing the visual quality of finished fabrics.
4. Excellent Rust Resistance: Made from materials compatible with the humid, steam-rich conditions of textile printing and dyeing workshops, this product resists rust even after extended use, preventing contamination of finished fabrics while extending the needle plate’s service life.
5. Convenient Installation and Versatile Compatibility: With a screw-fastened mounting design, it directly fits standard needle clamp structures found on most textile printing and dyeing machines. Replacement and installation are straightforward, requiring no additional modifications to existing equipment, allowing for quick replacement and upgrades of old needle plates.

Core Value of the Product

1. Reduced Production Losses: By addressing issues like needle loss, bending, breakage, snagging, and rust, this product lowers fabric scrap rates and reduces the frequency of needle plate replacements, helping textile manufacturers cut overall costs for raw materials and spare parts.
2. Enhanced Production Efficiency: Stable clamping performance combined with low maintenance needs minimizes downtime for repairs and upkeep, increasing the continuous operating time of printing and dyeing equipment and boosting fabric output per unit time.
3. Guaranteed Finished Product Quality: Consistent stretching and setting results, free from snags and rust, significantly improve the pass rate and aesthetic quality of finished fabrics, strengthening the market competitiveness of enterprises.

Target Customer Groups

The primary customer segments served by this needle plate include: manufacturers of various types of textile printing and dyeing equipment, who can use it as an original equipment accessory; large and medium-sized textile printing and dyeing processing companies, suitable for upgrading or replacing components on existing production lines; wholesale distributors and suppliers of textile printing and dyeing accessories, providing standard stock items to downstream textile enterprises; and maintenance service providers specializing in textile machinery, offering regular upkeep and replacement of faulty components.

Application Scenarios

This needle plate is mainly used in the fabric stretching and setting processes of textile printing and dyeing lines, compatible with standard stretching and setting machines and needle-clamp-type printing and dyeing equipment. It supports the stretching and setting of cotton fabrics, synthetic fabrics, blended fabrics, and more. In actual production, the needle plate operates continuously alongside the machine chain, clamping fabric edges during high-temperature setting. Widely applied across diverse manufacturing settings—including apparel fabric production, home textile processing, and industrial textile dyeing—it provides reliable edge-clamping and fabric-conveying support for various types of fabric processing.

Industry Pain Points

In traditional textile printing and dyeing processes, conventional needle plates often suffer from numerous challenges that impact production efficiency and product quality: First, inadequate stability of steel needle installation leads to needle loss, bending, and breakage after prolonged, high-frequency operation, necessitating frequent shutdowns for needle replacement and potentially resulting in ineffective edge clamping, causing wrinkles and uneven widths. Second, insufficient high-temperature resistance causes structural deformation under the intense heat of the setting process, compromising clamping accuracy and affecting the effectiveness of fabric stretching and setting. Third, inadequate surface treatment frequently results in snagging, damaging fabric fibers and creating visible defects. Fourth, poor corrosion resistance makes these plates prone to rust in the humid, steam-laden environments of printing and dyeing workshops, contaminating finished fabrics and shortening the needle plate’s lifespan while increasing procurement costs for enterprises. This needle plate has been optimized to address these industry pain points, comprehensively resolving the limitations of traditional needle plates and providing stable, reliable support for textile printing and dyeing operations.
