Located on a 5.8 acre piece of land, Powernet Industries' factory is fully-integrated and highly automated, from R&D to finishing. Quality control inspection is conducted at every critical stage of the manufacturing process to ensure the high quality standards expected by its clients are not compromised.
R&D Molecular structure and elongation specifications required by clients are carefully studied before a sample is produced.
WARPING This
is a process where imported yarns in the form of bobbins or cheese
are wound onto the beam in preparation for the knitting process.
WARP-KNITTING Warp-knitting machines convert the yarn (polyester, nylon and elastic) into fabric materials.
DYESTUFF DISPENSER
DYEING Fabrics are
dyed using powder dyestuff which are mixed according to a developed
recipe.
COLOUR MATCHING Computerised colour is conducted to ensure accurate colour matching.
DRYING The dyed warp-knitted fabrics are placed into drying machines and then go through the stenter machine that heat-sets the fabric to stabilise the molecular structure of the yarn.
BRUSHING For fabrics which require the velvety texture, the fabric is brushed by means of rollers with sharp wires on the surface which rotate in the opposite direction to the interfacing running fabrics.
