New Montex 8000 stenter from Monforts
The Montex 8000 stenter from Monforts includes a number of new features and options that are particularly suited for knitted fabrics, non-woven and technical textiles applications.
The new, European-built, Montex 8000 stenter from A. Monforts Textilmaschinen features a new heat recovery module incorporating a fully automatic cleaning system for its integrated heat recovery system; a reduced distance at the infeed for knitted fabrics; a new heavy duty vertical chain; new rotating disc type ‘fluff-sieves’ and a vacuum system for efficient cleaning; further improved visualisation for the company’s Teleservice facility; and two parallel integrated exhaust ducts in each chamber.
New heat recovery module
A new heat recovery module ‘Eco booster HRC’ with a fully automatic cleaning system is introduced, replacing the earlier modules, manually cleaned, tubes system.
Featuring a ‘honeycombed’ design the new system cleans itself fully automatically during machine operation and ensures continuous uninterrupted high availability.

The new stenter is also available with a reduced infeed distance between the infeed roller and the needling point for knitted fabrics, preventing eventual edge curling. The distance has been further reduced by 60 mm.
