Oerlikon Schlafhorst:Market and innovation leader in the field of staple fibres

Autoconer - Innovative machine concepts for winding

The Autoconer 5 is an important part of the “Circle of Success" and unambiguous evidence for the leadership in innovation of Oerlikon Schlafhorst in the field of winding and splicing technology.

At the fair, the winding machine will show its performance for a wide range of applications. The high productivity and the reproducible package quality which is optimally adapted to the requirements of downstream processing are outstanding features.

The new PreciFX yarn displacement system without drum is a milestone for innovative package design. With this, Oerlikon Schlafhorst once again revolutionizes the processes of winding technology. Individual package design, highest flexibility and productivity are performance features which are going to influence the dynamics of the textile market in the future.

The modular concept for winding machines by Oerlikon Schlafhorst enables spinning mills to select a machine customized for their process structure and to be always on the winner’s side.

Thanks to state-of-the-art electronic, a CAN-Bus system with nearly unlimited capacity and the plug & wind technology, the Autoconer can be adjusted in its performance spectrum anytime. And no matter which displacement system is applied, customers can definitely trust in Oerlikon Schlafhorst: generation of excellent Autoconer package quality.

Autocoro and BD line - Oerlikon Schlafhorst sets new standards

Oerlikon Schlafhorst will also present the members of the rotor spinning machine family which excel with new performance features for more quality and productivity.

At the exhibition, the Autocoro will be presented in its new concept consisting of the Autocoro S 360 and Autocoro 480.

With both machines, Belcoro yarn and package quality is guaranteed; the level of automation, however, can be adjusted by Autocoro customers precisely to their individual requirements.

The new piecing technology DigiPiecing, with 100% digital control and digital piecing test scores due to piecings of maximum quality is another feature of Autocoro S 360. The Autocoro S 360 is the only semi-automatic rotor spinning machine worldwide which realises rotor speeds of up to 130,000 rpm and take-up speeds of up to 230 m/minute in practice.

The BD line from Oerlikon Schlafhorst engineers in the field of rotor spinning technology, offers comprehensive innovations. With the new generation of drive technologies, the dependence between machine length and productivity has been significantly reduced for the first time so that production speeds of 200 m/minute are also possible for very long machines.

A simple operating concept rounds off the technical and technological highlights of this successful machine and guarantees very easy operation of the machine.

Corolab XF - brilliant detection of foreign fibres by the market leader

Worldwide, 95% of all Autocoro spinning mills trust in Corolab. In the Autocoro 480, Corolab XF, the innovative two-in-one system for digital yarn clearing, has already become established as benchmark worldwide.

A single sensor is responsible for a continuous detection of thick and thin places as well as for a perfect elimination of foreign fibres from the yarn. Thanks to the matrix grading, all functions are practical and can be easily set.

Corolab XF fulfils customer requirements with regard to productivity and quality in such a flexible way that customers of Oerlikon Schlafhorst can supply optimum quality to all kinds of weaving and knitting mills.

Another focus of the fair is the presentation of the complete range of the Oerlikon Schlafhorst ring spinning portfolios.

Zinser CompACT³- Market leader in wool processing

In the field of compact yarns as well as of short staple spinning of cotton and long staple spinning of wool, the technological details and advantages of the Zinser CompACT³ system stand out.

The performance features, for example a yarn structure that can be set, a separate compact vacuum and the self-cleaning compact unit have become established worldwide as key functions for a quality-oriented wool processing. In spinning, Zinser CompACT³ system guarantees a constant uniform yarn quality with continuous compact characteristics.

With this system the compact yarn structure can be adjusted exactly and process-safe to the according requirements of the finished item by the push of a button and centrally controlled setting via EasySpin. The Zinser CompACT³ system also scores in terms of economy thanks to a significantly reduced outlay on cleaning and maintenance.

Zinser 360 – Formula for success for quality-conscious classic ring spinning

The Zinser 360 which will be presented in Shanghai with the automatic CoWeMat doffer is an innovative and highly productive technology platform for fine and medium-fine ring yarns.

The permanently reliable machine quality with high-grade key components such as high-quality bottom rollers and spindles, centrable rings, high performance drive technologies and optimised software and control technologies reflect German quality standards through and through. Ring spinning mills benefit from this by higher speeds, lower operating costs and a permanently high efficiency.
