Detailed costings of dyeing processes have indicated that considerable savings can be obtained by the elimination of additions and by the use of optimized dyeing techniques. This can be greatly assisted by the use of automation backed by rationalized processes and assisted by colour physics techniques. The introduction into the dyehouse of rationalized processes may make possible an increase in productivity which may cause serious imbalances in the plant with an over–capacity situation.
