Sieger YCP Conditioning is carried out by Cold Saturated Steam generated inside the plant. Steam is generated in accordance to the vapour pressure curve of stream, to maintain homogeneity.
Parameters Involved
Process fine tuning is done at site depending on the yarn to obtain maximum results. Constant research has enabled us to perfect the art of conditioning.

Effect
Homogeneous penetration of moisture is ensured by several stages of evacuation and impregnation with saturated steam. Precision sensors with perfect reproduction system ensures consistent performance within and between batches for years of operation.
Short pay-back
Additional weight realization in yarn implies very short pay-back for investment on Sieger Yarn Conditioning plant. The pay-back period is typically below 6 months without considering the quality benefits after conditioning.
Proper unwinding tension results in efficient knitting. Improvement in elongation reduces end breaks. Fluff liberation in knitting is reduced. The knit fabric has a soft and bulky feel.
Size pickup increase after conditioning implies high weaving efficiency. Controlled tension in positive weft feeders assures a minimum of 1 – 2% increase in weft insertion efficiency.
