XTY-30 Door Fuji Flat-Tip Lixin Needle Plate, Left

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 under high 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 process in textile printing and dyeing, the fabric edges must be continuously and stably clamped to maintain uniform width during high-temperature setting, thus preventing shrinkage, wrinkling, and other quality defects. This needle plate is secured to the needle clamp via screws, allowing its steel needles to precisely pierce and fix both edges of the fabric. As the equipment’s 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 the fabric stretching and setting process is completed. Throughout the entire conveying process, the needle plate’s steel needles consistently maintain stable 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 That Resist Loosening: The steel needles on this needle plate feature a secure mounting structure, ensuring they remain firmly in place even after prolonged, high-frequency operation with the chain. This eliminates the need for frequent shutdowns to replace loose needles, significantly reducing maintenance downtime on the production line.
2. High-Temperature Resistance and Shape Retention: Designed specifically for the high-temperature conditions of the setting process, both the overall structure of the needle plate and its steel needles can withstand the intense heat 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, so the fabric fibers are not caught or damaged during conveyance, avoiding snags, tears, and other quality defects, thereby enhancing the visual quality of finished fabrics.
4. Excellent Rust Resistance: The material used is well-suited to the humid, steam-rich environment of textile printing and dyeing workshops, minimizing the risk of rust over extended use and preventing contamination of finished fabrics caused by rust stains, while also extending the overall service life of the needle plate.
5. Convenient Installation and Versatile Compatibility: With a screw-fastening mounting method, 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, enabling quick replacement or upgrade of old needle plates.

Core Value of the Product

1. Reduced Production Losses: By addressing issues such as needle loss, bending, breakage, snagging, and rust, this product lowers fabric scrap rates and reduces the frequency of needle plate replacements, helping textile printing and dyeing companies cut down on raw material and component costs.
2. Improved Production Efficiency: Stable clamping performance combined with low maintenance needs reduces downtime for repairs and upkeep, prolongs continuous operation of printing and dyeing equipment, and increases the amount of fabric processed per unit time.
3. Guaranteed Finished Product Quality: Consistent fabric stretching and setting results, free from snags and rust, significantly boost the pass rate and aesthetic quality of finished fabrics, strengthening the market competitiveness of the company’s products.

Target Customer Groups

The primary customer groups 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 enterprises, which can employ it to upgrade or replace components in their existing production lines; wholesale distributors and suppliers of textile printing and dyeing accessories, providing it as a standard item to downstream textile printing and dyeing businesses; and maintenance service providers for textile machinery, offering it for routine upkeep and replacement of faulty parts.

Application Scenarios

This needle plate is mainly used in the fabric stretching and setting processes of textile printing and dyeing production 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 other textile varieties. In actual production, the needle plate operates continuously alongside the equipment’s chain, clamping fabric edges throughout the high-temperature setting process. Widely applied in garment fabric production, home textile processing, industrial textile dyeing, and other manufacturing scenarios, it provides reliable edge-clamping and fabric-conveying support for diverse types of textile processing.

Industry Pain Points

In traditional textile printing and dyeing operations, ordinary needle plates often suffer from numerous pain points that negatively impact production efficiency and product quality: First, insufficient 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, inadequate high-temperature resistance causes structural deformation under the intense heat of the setting process, reducing clamping accuracy and compromising 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 the needle plate prone to rust in the humid, steamy environments typical of textile printing and dyeing workshops, with rust staining finished fabrics, contaminating products, shortening the needle plate’s lifespan, and increasing component procurement costs for enterprises. This needle plate has been optimized to address these industry-specific challenges, comprehensively resolving the various issues associated with traditional needle plates and providing stable, reliable support for textile printing and dyeing production.
