Andritz offers special solutions for the nonwovens production in the technical textiles industry. The company prepares to highlight its complete nonwoven lines at India ITME on 2-7 December.. ANDRITZ Küsters will be present at the exhibition with ANDRITZ Asselin-Thibeau and ANDRITZ Perfojet and plans to present trustable solutions about the nonwovens production in the Indian market at booths G13/J12 and H7.
Andritz carrying out successful studies in nonwovens continues its studies for spunlace investments. The company offers high speed integrated production lines by maintaining energy efficiency in high levels.The company applies optimum solutions for the fastest spunlace lines in commodity goods.
Interest for the Markets Under Development
The complete spunlace line manufactured for the markets under development by Andritz is constituted of the technology alliance of ANDRITZ Asselin-Thibeau, ANDRITZ Perfojet and ANDRITZ Küsters. This includes carding system, the Jetlace hydroentanglement process, the neXaqua dewatering unit, the Perfodry through-air dryer, and the neXcal twin embossing calender . the Axcess carding machine and the Jetlace Avantage hydroentanglement process is a proven concept, designed to produce lightweight fabrics at low operating costs. With the ACS system developed by ANDRITZ Asselin-Thibeau for needlepunch is known as the latest innovation in crosslapping technology, capable of handling bulky card webs when feeding a cross-lapper.
The cards feeding the crosslapper provides ease of use and increase productivity. At India ITME 2012, the focus will also be on the benefits of using the ProDyn technology, a feature guaranteeing uniformity of the web. Combined with the A50 needle loom series, this solution provides a clear competitive edge for end users. With the Jetlace machine design, ANDRITZ Perfojet meets the high requirements of technical nonwovens producers. The Jetlace Evolution is perfectly designed for the production of durables, such as automotive and filtration substrates.
Another focus of the company at the exhibition will be custom-made patterning solutions for spunlace fabrics. ANDRITZ Perfojet recently introduced a new 3D patterning technology called neXimaging. This innovative approach allows any kind of patterning and/or aperture at very high production speed. The sleeve has been designed to reproduce logos and artwork in 3D design with exceptional high quality of detail.
New teXcal trike Expected to Receive Interest
ANDRITZ Küsters has developed a new calender design especially for the production of delicate, technical textiles with very high density: The teXcal trike is a 3-roll calender with S-Roll, Xpro Roll and heated steel roll in a triangular roll arrangement. This configuration allows extremely flexible production by using one or two nips. Both nips are individually adjustable without influencing the other nip’s deflection characteristics. In comparison to standard 3-roll calenders with vertical roll arrangement, the teXcal trike reduces seam loss to a minimum. With regard to the continuously increasing process requirements in the production of technical textiles, the proven deflection control of the S-Roll is combined with additional zone control in the Xpro Roll. Fields of application include sailcloth, woven monofilament/multifilament fabrics, filters, and parachute silk.
