What did the calendering do?
It is a phase of finishing that presses the text giving a bright appearance.
The calandrature does have to pass the finite cotton fabric through heavy weights that compress it, giving it a smooth and shiny appearance, like in the chintz fabric. A rilievo with the calendering has been incised if you can obtain designs with special effects such as marezzatura or moiré, embossing. The pressure of the food is provided by means of metal rollers that simultaneously emit light and heat to give greater brightness and uniformity to the item. The Calandra consists of a roller insieme, placed vertically or orizontally and riscaldati dall'interno, across and quali if a piece is passed to remove it, render it compact and confer glientezza. Note that the item enters the calender ancora umido, all the internal parts of the tubes, as they are from the maglieria, come after all the extensions; la satura ne fissa in seguito l'altezza.
