A growing world market existed due to the globalization of modern process, and due to this in the textile industry it also generated problems, changes and challenges in colour management, especially in dye-house. An amazing use of collection of natural and synthetic materials for textile manufacturing in this global market existed, which covers filaments, yarns, threads and the many woven, knitted, knotted, and embroidered fabrics made from them, as well as nonwoven fabrics manufactured by mechanically or chemically bonding fibers, in this entire occurrence it is very difficult to reproducing colour precisely and economically and also noted that colour continuity is the priorities for having the best quality.

During the entire supply chain, luckily technology keeps on developing which helps to control colour - from the lab, to the shop-floor into the dye-house. This article provides several steps by which you can improve textile production more efficient, cost-effective in colour management throughout the process.

Colour combination expertise

Dyers are still facing the challenges with noteworthy differentiation between colour philosophy and real world practices, bearing in mind over all the history of coloured textiles. Creating correctness and consistency in production is not easy due to the exclusive chemical procedure in the most modern dye-house for each and every dye, and hence designers and technicians are facing major challenges.

The expert-based colour technology today has adopted by the master dyer. On the practice of own each system's acquaintance based, many technologies like Datacolor's SmartmatchÒ technology received theoretical colour guessing and regulating it on that base. It is a one type of colour matching system which provides distinctive way of gathering the significant information from relevant guide lines and it evaluate and displays colours in a user friendly manner according to the actual behavior of dyestuff process by its learning system of colour.

These software covers following aspects and benefits:

. Use of dyestuff combinations and separators: That permits applicators to prompt selection of the groups of dyestuffs with rapidly and effortlessly for applying it for colour combination through separate selection technique.

. Formula modification: To fix off-shade dieing and equate colours on a selection of materials, formula modification procedure provides the architecture to modify the dye method while the process continues.

. Assessment: It provided with single touch button, which can asses with reflectance curves, on-screen colour displays, strength comparisons and lab colour plots with rapidly and it select from among numerous types of formulations.

. Alternative options: To meet the combination standard in an adaptable set-up like exposed by weight or volume and arrange by lowest formula cost or total colour dissimilarity, from single to multiple set-up displays, such as for worksheet, in an adaptable format and alternatives are provided that rapidly tests almost all possible formulations.

. Testing and manufacturing modification: To operate it by performing automatic additions, automatic reformulations, manual corrections, and even on-line evaluations of corrections, that decrease the number of lab test you require.

. New lot of production and blending improvement: It automatically determines and removes unwanted or unidentified materials from batches contained with in, which gives the standardized or corrected lot of production to the operator.

Colour monitoring process during manufacturing

Not only every part of the dyeing procedure requires to be automated for optimum effectiveness and control, some tasks, such as filling the dye-pots before to supply or move them to dye machines, may still be nearly too cost-effective when carried out manually. Regulating the effectiveness of the dye-house automation definitely requires advance colour combination efforts. There are many types of software like ITMProcess (software integrated) are available to provide important implications to the colour combination and manufacturing management and this integration is also important in the manufacturing ending period or in quality control. Therefore you should have superior and fully incorporated colour quality control software for colour matching and combination system.

To determine differences in colour assessments between the supplier and the customer a sufficient colour quality control method required. Relating to quality aspects like its reports, statistics, and the appraisal and retrieving of data etc it must help in all the matters. The software should be fast, simple to control and must adjust itself to the individual requirement in the manufacturing procedure.

Colour quality control system must be planned according to:

. Easy operation: it should be design in such way that train operators in less than an hour can see the all activities with "single screen" operation.

. Easily conveyable: Speedily and at once anywhere in the world via an e-mail function colour data should communicated or transferred.

. Report or data acquisition: It must be designed in such way that it can generates printouts and pass/fail reports according to internal or customer's requirement.

. Online Checking: Incoming raw materials undoubtedly recovered online for checking colour standards.

. Customized configuration: The colour control screens must be designed according to customer specifications or as per requirement of internal operation.

Objected perfect colour on any fabric and multiple alternatives available

To replicate onto a definite fabric the colouration process begins with an objected colour that is clear and it is very vital. There seems to be an outstanding move forward in laboratory dyeing, finishing and wash-fastness testing today.

These types of system designed with three aims are as follows:

. On a small scale production in the laboratory to reproduce during the dyeing procedure

. To dye small trial to typical colour and material during production

. To lessen the time and workforce needed for mounting manufacturing procedure.

The relationship between the formula built-up in the lab and the formula applied in manufacturing is the vital factor for all three aims. System like Datacolor, built-up with the Spectra-dye Plus to confirm relation among the lab and production, it is an infrared exhaust laboratory-dyeing machine with an entire automated measurement system. Time-consuming labor-intensive dosing has turn out to be an event of the past in the textile industry with the supplement of the dosing carousal. For the period of the dying round supplementary would be automatically treated into the dyeing beaker with various dose capacities like linear, progressive through pump. The latest devise with improved connection between your lab and production formulas required. For each supplementary, the full range of shades, pale, medium and dark, units provides multiple alternatives.

Completely incorporated colour systems

To decrease dye as well as chemical and labor costs for the lab and during the entire manufacturing procedure, the textile industry requires to be guaranteed perfect operation with current just-in-time demands. It must cover important vital areas as mentioned and not require covering automating or general feature of dye production and the system, but must work all together. For example a high-quality colour combination system must functions according to the systems of laboratory administration to textile manufacturing management to colour quality control and colour database.

With correct and frequent colour volume and data evaluation of effective colour control and colour management operates with ease of function. In the market there are availability of a large quantity of computerized systems for enriching communication, quality, productivity and profitability. You can not be assured of a completely exact manufacturing method that manufactures less wasteful overall, if the system you preferred doesn't permit addition with the complete range of colour management conditions.
