Introduction
A single beam nonwoven production line is often made up of several suction fans that work together to make the required output. To move the fabric through the production line quickly, the fans must be able to provide a significant volume of air flow. In this post, we will look at how much capacity a suction fan requires to operate correctly on a single beam nonwoven production line.

Suction fan requirements for single beam nonwovenproduction lines
The capacity of a suction fan for a single beam nonwoven manufacturing line is determined by the type of nonwoven material produced, the production speed, and the size of the nonwoven fabric.
A fan with a capacity of 1,000 cubic meters per minute (m/min) is adequate for most types of nonwovens. A fan with a capacity of 10,000 m/min may be required for particularly high-quality nonwovens, such as those manufactured from carbon nanotubes.
In general, the larger the fan required to prevent fabrics from sticking to conveyors or air drums, the faster the production speed. As production speeds increase, so does the size of the fan.

How to calculate the fan capacity?
When estimating the fan capacity of a pp spunbond non woven fabric machine, the amount of m2 of fabric produced per hour and the fan speed must be considered. The following equation can be used to calculate the fan capacity:
Fan Capacity (CFM) = (M2 Fabric Produced Per Hour * Fan Speed) / 60
If a single beam nonwoven production line produces 1,000 m2 of fabric per hour and the fan runs at 200 rpm, the fan capacity is 2,000 CFM.
Conclusion
The suction fan capacity required by the single beam non woven making machine is mostly determined by the type of material being processed. If the material is paper-based, for example, a smaller fan will be required because the air pressure is lower than when processing other materials.
