4. Specification Selection of Down and Feather Filling Machine When Offering an Order
(1) Selection of fan with internal brake
D type Fan with brake is the first choice: Out going of down and feather for filling must stopped two seconds after the machine is stopped. This kind of fan is good enough to keep both the product and the site clean and to reduce the loss of down and feather. But it is high in price.
C type Fan without internal brake is selectable for self-employed persons and small workshops to reduce investment. It does not stop running during operation and is fast in filling speed. However, the site is difficult to keep clean and tidy because there is still little down being blown out 30 seconds after it is switched off.
E type fan with a frequency inverter, if selected, is easy
to adjust its wind force as required. Low wind force can be adopted when filling clothes or down and feather to decrease the damage of down and feather; strong wind force can be selected when filling pillows or big feather pieces to minimize the blockage of the filling pipe. It saves energy and power. It can save power by 1/3 than conventional down and feather filling machine. The fan’s soft start produces less impulse on the power source when it starts to run. Even a 5- ampere single phase electric meter can be adopted. It is quick to stop. It can stop down and feather being blown out within 1 second after the fan brake is applied. Thus it is easy to keep both the product and site tidy. It can be used in shop as a piece of equipment for on-spot filling of down and feather quilts. It can also be combined in a large scale production line in factory.
