Umbrella silk is produced in England. It consists of very closely woven nylon yarn which is especially water resistant and durable. The quality of noble natural silk is even more dense as one can see by holding the fabric against the light.  3, record 1, English, - umbrella%20silk

Overflows... have been designed for delicate knitted and woven fabrics made of natural and synthetic fibres. They are also found in the carpet sector. The main difference between jet and overflow machines remains in the fact that in jet machines the fabric is transported by the bath flowing at high speed through the nozzle, while with overflows the fabric is transported by the gravitational force of the liquor overflow. A winch(usually not motor driven) is located in the upper part of the machine and the fabric hangs over it. A longer length of textile hangs from the exit side of the winch than from the inlet side. Gravitational forces pull the longer length of textile downward more strongly than the shorter. The fabric is therefore soaked in the bath without any tension(transportation is very gentle).  1, record 2, English, - overflow%20machine

Les machines overflow [...] ont été conçues pour les tricots et les tissus délicats, à base de fibres naturelles et synthétiques. On les utilise également dans le secteur du tapis. La différence principale entre les machines de type jet et overflow est que dans les premières, l'étoffe est transportée par le bain entraîné à haute vitesse à travers la tuyère, alors que dans les machines overflow, ce transport est assuré par le débordement du bain. Une tournette (généralement non entraînée par un moteur) est disposée dans la partie supérieure de la machine, sur laquelle l'étoffe est placée en porte à faux, en ce sens que le poids de la matière textile est plus grand à la sortie de la tournette qu'à l'entrée. Du fait de la pesanteur, l'étoffe est immergée dans le bain sans subir la moindre tension (le transport se fait tout en douceur).  1, record 2, French, - machine%20overflow

On-Top Formers. A feature common to all the formers discussed thus far is that the sheet plies are picked up and carried on the underside of the felt. This transfer method restricts operating speeds and sheet dryness levels. Another problem is that the sheet must be righted before it enters the press section; the usual procedure is to run the forming section in the opposite direction to the rest of the machine, and turn the felt over with a long carryback section. Less often, the delicate sheet is transferred from one felt to another entering the press section. The remaining formers to be discussed place the sheet on top of the felt or fabric. This approach eliminates the speed and dewatering limitations. But, housekeeping and maintenance aspects must be stressed since the sheet is more vulnerable to drips and spills.  1, record 11, English, - on%2Dtop%20former

Les formeurs superposés. Les formeurs dont il a jusqu'ici été question ont pour caractéristique commune que les différentes couches de la feuille sont levées et transportées sous un feutre. La méthode de transfert qui prévaut alors limite la vitesse des machines et la siccité des feuilles. Un autre problème rencontré est qu'il faut aligner la feuille avant qu'elle n'entre dans la section des presses; la technique couramment utilisée consiste à installer la section de formation de sorte que le sens du trajet de la feuille y soit à l'opposé du reste de la machine et de faire tourner le feutre autour d'une longue section de renvoi. Plus rarement, la feuille, qui est fragile, est transférée du feutre à un autre feutre à l'entrée des presses. Pour ce qui est des formeurs dont il sera ici question, la feuille est placée sur le dessus d'un feutre ou d'une toile synthétique. Cette façon de procéder permet d'éliminer les limites de vitesse et d'extraction de l'eau. Mais elle impose davantage de travail de surveillance et de maintenance parce que la feuille est alors plus vulnérable aux ruissellements ou projections d'eau.  1, record 11, French, - formeur%20superpos%C3%A9
