GIOTTO HT 9000
In order to check and reveal dyeing uniformity, the tubular knitted fabrics produced by the DYE SCANNER have consequently to be dyed. GIOTTO HT 9000 is the ideal equipment for this purpose. It can dye up to about 300 g of tubular knitted fabric samples,and - thanks to its exclusive and innovative built-in automatic dosing system - GIOTTO HT 9000 can wash, dye, rinse, and - if necessary - soap the samples.
