Abstract

The invention relates to a method for compressive shrinking a textile web of material (9) with the aid of a rubber blanket shrinking system, wherein the rubber blanket (3) is cooled after the main cylinder is discharged. The areas (22) of the rub blanket not covered by the web of material (9) on the main cylinder are cooled after the cylinder is removed in a faster manner than the areas (27) of the rubber blanket (3) which are covered for the fixing purposes, in order to reduce premature embrittling of the edge areas (22) of the rubber blanket (3) which is not covered by the respectively treated web of material (9) on the main cy
