The direct, very intensive flame, the short contact time between flame and fabric, the ignition flame temperature necessary for the vaporization of polyester and the various singeing positions represent the decisive advantages of the Osthoff-Senge singeing system.

Singeing positions

		Onto free guided fabric Flame meets right-angle onto dense woven fabric freely guided between 2 rollers, recommended for natural fibres and blends weighing more than 125g/m²
		Onto water cooled roller Flame meets right-angle onto the fabric bended over a water cooled roller. Recommended for fabrics of temperature sensitive fibres, those of open-weave, blended ones weighing less than 125g/m
		Tangential singeing Flame passes tangentially over the fabric bended over a water cooled roller recommendable for fabrics which cannot tolerate direct exposure to flame and for repair of filamentation
		Flame shearing Flame passes tangentially over the fabric bended over a singeing sword, with minimized contact time, singeing effect on fibre tip only
