ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is disclosed for drying web-like material, such as knit material, being fed to a pre-shrinking machine such as a compressor. The apparatus includes a frame, at least one drying roller about which the web-like material passes in traveling from a first station to a second station, motive means for rotating the drying roller, and adjustable tension responsive control means controlling the speed and direction of operation of said motive means in response to the tension in the web-like material. The invention is particularly applicable in the situation where a pair of webs of different material are being processed by a single compressor and the necessity exists for accurately controlling the tension existing on both webs of material as it is applied to the compressor. In addition, a novel moisture applying unit is disclosed.
