ABSTRACT:
A continuous textile processing system and method are disclosed for producing a nonwoven web containing bleached cotton fibers in a single line system which includes a supply of fibers such as a bale opening device, a plurality of fiber delivery lines transport the fibers through a fiber opening process where the fibers are individualized and opened. The opened fibers are collected and fed to a blending system and then to web forming apparatus which forms a stable web. The web is processed in a continuous flow bleaching unit and then through a drier unit. The dried web is slit into a plurality of web strips or slivers which are fed to carding machines. The fibers are reformed into a web which is hydroentangled and dried. The web is then rolled and redied for other processing. The final nonwoven web consisting of bleached cotton fibers may be made into highly purified and absorbent wipes, pads, and other articles for medical, industrial, or domestic use.
