![Laser technique helps make the clothing industry more friendly to the environment 1]()
Clothing industry has been searching for novel technique to make the clothing more creative and more personalized. And the advent of laser technique, many creative and complicated designs can become reality in just a few minutes. You might think that laser technique can just be laser cutting, laser engraving or laser marking. In fact, it is more capable than you imagine.
When laser beam is projected on the surface of the dyed textile, apart from very small amount of laser light has been reflected, most of the laser light is absorbed by the textile and rapidly turns the optic energy into heat energy. This makes the surface temperature of the textile rise very rapidly so that the dyestuff will evaporate and has color fading to form patterns of different shades. This is how the textile printing comes from.
Nowadays, more and more famous jeans brands are using laser technique to replace traditional jeans making techniques in jeans making procedures like color fading, ripped effect and so on. That is because traditional jeans making involves thousands of chemicals and some of them are very harmful to the workers. Meanwhile, a great amount of water is used in the whole jeans making procedure and will then become waste water, causing great pollution to the environment.
But with laser technique, it won't cause any pollution to the environment, for it doesn't require water or any chemicals. After finishing processing, all you need to do is to wash it with normal amount of water and that is. No more complicated procedures.
Among all the laser sources, CO2 laser is the most widely used in textile industry, for textile has the best absorption rate for CO2 laser. But since CO2 laser used in textile industry is mostly glass tube, it is easy to crack if excessive heat accumulates and is taken away in time. This could be a huge maintenance cost if it really happens. Luckily, we have S&A Teyu air cooled water chillers. S&A Teyu air cooled water chillers can cool down CO2 lasers of different powers very effectively. They are designed with a user-friendly control panel which has integrated alarm functions capable of protecting the CO2 laser against overheating or water flow problem. Plus, the water chiller units are compliant with CE, ROHS, REACH and ISO standard, so users can rest assured using them.
