Giving details thereof, the unit submitted that on the pleating machine the fabrics (on which pleating was to be done) was fed between two papers coming out from the two rolls, passed through a set of specific pleating blades with varying designs, intensity and characteristics and the pleated fabrics is removed from papers and the process ended there. They explained, that the purpose of using the machine was to have pleating effect and that the use of papers was to prevent the fabrics from getting burnt. As mentioned earlier, the unit has produced a photocopy of leaflet/brochure which throws light on .....

Chief Chemist) visited the unit on dt. 5-9-1997 to study the manufacturing process of pleated fabric under reference. Pleated fabrics are being made on different machine by putting the fabrics between beached paper sheets and passing through the pleating machine at about 120 degree centigrade to 200 degree centigrade. Afterwards papers are removed and pleating fabrics which is made by above process is packed and marketed. Pleating process with durable effect describe in technical literature available are 1. steaming 2. chemical treatment 3. resin finishing. In the process described by the Chief Chemist CRCL, New .....

Tirupati Prints is not of permanent nature, it is in short a simple localized mechanical random folding followed by immediate subsequent hot pressing in a continuous process carried out on automatic pleating machine in single stage. It does not involve any pre-treatment of the gray fabrics with chemicals/resins to make the pleating permanent. In the case the pleating effect on synthetics thermoplastic fiber fabric is the combined effect of localized mechanical reformation/folding at the fabrics and fixing the same by application of hot pressure roll at temperature above 110 degree C. to give visual effect of pleating or folded effect. It is cl ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
