Flat irons, also known as ironing machines or cloth calenders, are machines used in the laundry industry to iron large flat fabrics such as sheets, quilts, tablecloths, etc. Such machines are usually equipped with a heating system and a rolling device to achieve ironing and flattening of the fabric.
During the operation of the flat iron, felt may exist as an auxiliary material or component, and its main functions may include:
Protecting the fabric: The softness and wear resistance of felt enable it to protect the fabric from direct friction and damage, especially during high-temperature ironing.
Improving the ironing effect: Felt can evenly distribute heat and ensure that the fabric is heated evenly, thereby improving the ironing effect and quality.
Reducing noise and vibration: Adding felt between the rolling device and the fabric can reduce the noise and vibration of the machine during operation, and improve the stability and service life of the equipment.
However, it should be noted that different brands and models of flat irons may use different felt materials, structures and installation methods. Therefore, when selecting and replacing felt, it is recommended to refer to the operating manual of the specific equipment or contact the manufacturer for accurate information and suggestions.
In addition, for the maintenance and care of the ironing machine, regular inspection and replacement of wearing parts such as felt is also one of the important measures to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend its service life.
