What is the effect of towel cloth setting time

Apr 29, 2025

What are the effects of towel cloth setting time being too long or too short?

Too long or too short a setting time for the terry cloth will have an adverse effect on the quality of the terry cloth.

1. The impact of too long shaping time

Fiber damage: When exposed to high temperatures for a long time, the fibers of terry cloth may suffer excessive heat damage. The fibers may become brittle and lose elasticity, resulting in a poor feel and shortened service life of the terry cloth. For example, a soft cotton terry cloth may become rough and break easily during use.

Color changes: For dyed terry cloth, too long a setting time may cause the color to fade or change. Under the continuous exposure to high temperature, the dye molecules may break down or react with other substances, changing the vividness and stability of the color. For example, dark terry cloth may appear lighter or darker.

Energy waste: Long molding time will increase energy consumption and production costs. It not only wastes energy resources such as electricity and steam, but also increases equipment wear and maintenance costs.

Reduced production efficiency: Too long a set-up time will extend the production cycle and reduce production efficiency. In large-scale production, this may lead to delayed delivery and affect the company's market competitiveness.

2. The impact of too short setting time

Poor setting effect: If the setting time is too short, the fibers of the terry cloth may not be able to fully adjust their shape and fix. This will lead to poor dimensional stability, and the terry cloth will easily deform and shrink during use. For example, after washing, the width may become smaller and the length may be shortened.

Insufficient softness: Insufficient setting time may make the terry cloth less soft. The fibers are not tightly bound together, and the hand feel will be harder, affecting the comfort of use. Especially for high-end terry cloth that pursues a soft hand feel, too short a setting time will seriously affect the product quality.

Appearance problems: Appearance problems such as uneven surface and wrinkles may occur. Since the fiber does not have enough time to be stretched and adjusted during the shaping process, the appearance of the terry cloth may appear rough, affecting the beauty and market value of the product.

To sum up, the setting time of terry cloth needs to be reasonably adjusted according to factors such as the material, thickness, color, etc. of the terry cloth to ensure the best setting effect while avoiding the adverse effects caused by too long or too short time.
