WAS BEDEUTET CALANDRIEREN? DEFINITION UND BEDEUTUNG IM TEXTILDRUCK

Calendering is a finishing process in which textiles or printed materials are passed through heated rollers. The aim is to smooth, compact, or fix the surface. In textile printing, calendering is often used to fix colors, improve the feel, or create a special gloss effect.

Arsonists, your creative partner for high-quality and sustainable textile finishing in Munich, uses calendering processes specifically to give textiles a special quality. This ensures that your products are not only visually appealing, but also feel great to the touch.

WARUM IST CALANDRIEREN WICHTIG?

Calendering offers several advantages for textile printing projects:

  • Color fixation: Heat and pressure are used to permanently anchor printing inks in the material.

  • Surface finishing: The textile surface is smoothed and given an elegant appearance.

  • Improved feel: Fabrics feel more pleasant and higher quality after calendering.

  • Glanz- oder Matt-Effekte: Abhängig von den Einstellungen können unterschiedliche Oberflächenwirkungen erzielt werden.

  2. Rolling process: The material is passed through heated rollers that operate at a defined temperature and pressure.

  3. Fixing: The combination of pressure and heat ensures color or surface fixing.

  4. Cooling: After the rolling process, the material stabilizes and retains the desired surface finish.
