The Pre-Stenter Scouring Machine is a multi-chamber washing system specially designed to clean substances such as oil, wax, paraffin, and particles on fabrics before they enter the stenter. This pre-treatment step significantly increases production quality and reduces machinery maintenance downtime.

Prevents knitting oil, waxes, and paraffins from entering the stenter chambers. This dramatically reduces the accumulation of burnt oil inside the stenter, saving hours of weekly maintenance and minimizing fire hazards.
Effectively removes oils, waxes, and sizing agents from natural and synthetic fibers. Ensures a perfectly uniform and clean surface for subsequent finishing processes.
By conducting a pre-cleaning step directly on the stenter line, subsequent washing and rinsing cycles before or after dyeing are significantly reduced, translating to overall lower utility costs.
The continuous tension-sensitive design ensures the fabric is relaxed and uniform, helping maintain stable fabric weight (grammage) across the batch.
Utilizes an optimized 3-chamber layout: the first chamber uses chemical dosing to break down oil/wax, while the second and third chambers perform intensive hot water rinsing to leave fabrics chemical-free.
