Why mills choose Jeckswell

Engineering That Pays You Back

  1. Technician comparing matching dyed woven textile swatches under neutral inspection light

    Right-first-time shade

    Frequency-controlled drives and accurate, linear tension control help you hit shade and repeat it batch after batch — less re-dyeing, less rework.

  2. Open-width dyed fabric passing through a compact textile dye bath

    Low liquor ratio, lower cost

    Open-width jigger dyeing runs at a material-to-liquor ratio of 1:3 to 1:5, cutting water, dye, chemical and steam consumption per batch.

  3. Gloved technician inspecting a stainless-steel roller bearing assembly

    Built for uptime

    Heavy-duty stainless-steel construction, robust gearboxes and low-maintenance design keep machines running and reduce downtime.

  4. Hands measuring a stainless-steel frame during textile machinery fabrication

    Local manufacturer advantage

    Gujarat is home to more than half of India's textile processing machinery manufacturers — our Ahmedabad base means faster spares and genuine customisation.

How a jigger works

Open-Width Dyeing, Done Right

In a jigger, fabric is wound onto one main roller and passed in full open width through a dye trough at the base of the machine, then wound onto the second roller. Each pass is an “end”. Dye penetrates as the fabric travels back and forth under controlled tension and temperature.

Because the cloth runs flat — never in rope form — jigger dyeing is ideal for woven fabrics that crease easily, and it works at a low liquor ratio that saves water, dye and chemicals.
