System, machine and method for treating threads or parts thereof

A thread treatment machine for treating a thread or portions thereof, said thread treatment machine comprising:

• a) a plurality of cartridges containing a same or different thread treatment-materials therein;
• b) at least one treatment-material delivery unit/system, configured to connect to each one of the plurality of cartridges, and configured for delivering/applying said treatment-material from its respective cartridge over a passing portion of the thread;
• c) a microfluidic mixer in which said treatment-material(s) mix prior to theft delivery to the passing portion of the thread;
• d) a treatment head with a guiding conduit configured for guiding the thread and applying said treatment-material(s) thereon as it passes through via one or more dedicated orifices;
• e) at least one engine for pulling said thread through said thread treatment machine;
• f) at least one thread-tension creating and/or controlling unit;
• g) a communication and control unit for receiving treatment plan data indicative of at least one machine readable treatment related parameters (TRP) associated with at least one treatment effect for each thread portion to be treated, at least for controlling quantities of treatment-material outputted by each one of the at least one treatment-material delivery unit/system at each given timeframe for controlling the treatment effect of each of the passing portions of the thread, according to the received treatment plan data;
• and
• h) at least one treatment-material fixation/drying unit/system (post treatment), comprising at least one of:
• UV-based radiating system, heating system, and pressure system.
