ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for shrinking and smoothing single layer or tubular textile material where the material is first pre-shrunk by conveyance along a first curved path through a heated curved pull-in gap formed by a guide shoe and a pull-in conveyor roller. The material is then conveyed along a second curved path, curved oppositely to the first curved path, and then to a compaction zone formed by cooperation between a smoothing conveyor and a shrinkage conveyor belt. The size of the pull-in gap and the speed of the pull-in conveyor may be varied in order to achieve a variation in the residual shrinkage of the material.
