The air-conditioning plants for textile mills are based on cooling through evaporation and
have as their target to keep temperature and relative humidity constant in the various
production departments. These two parameters are essential for a successful running of the machines in all departments.
The air in the various departments is changed 20-30 times per hour, using suitable fans. The air is filtered, cooled and humidified and conveyed back to the working rooms. The plants have generally modular structure and are adjusted to the requirements of the single department.
Cotton processing causes the emission of large quantities of dust.
The machines are maintained clean through suction systems integrated in the machines, as in the case of cards and drawing frames.
On roving frames and spinning machines cleaning systems running on trolleys along the machines (travelling cleaners) are used which, through appropriate air blowing and suction phases keep machines and floor clean.
A particularly important role is played by the filtering systems, which are suited to the kind of dust originating in the different departments.
The spinning mills are also provided with waste recovery systems, which separate the single types of waste depending on the machines originating them, as they can be reused in different forms.
