SwissTex is a
worldwide operating manufacturer of textile machinery and
a system provider with profound knowledge of BCF and T&I
spinning processes in the continuous filament market. They
are an innovative company who takes customer’s demands
into account. Their core competencies are in the fields of
Engineering and Process Technology. More than 75 years of
experience, highest quality and reliable customer support,
all add up to place SwissTex consistently one step ahead.
The company is located in Winterthur, Switzerland with 80
employees and Technical Trial Center where Pilot Plants
for BCF as well as T&I are installed. Those Pilot Plants
are used for customer trials and working with the latest
state-of-art technology. |
Since February 2008 SwissTex Winterthur AG has opened a new
sales and support office in Shanghai, China. With this step they
have settled new milestones in China.
The combination of the strong international experience
coupled with a keen understanding of local market conditions
guarantee improved service and attention to the customers. With
this new opening SwissTex emphasizes the importance of the
customer and market proximity.
The symTTex M40 sets new standards in BCF extrusion as the
only system on the market with four ends per position and has
been engineered to achieve a very constant and even yarn
quality. It is characterized by a symmetrical yarn path and a
new top loading spin beam.

Swisstex adopted a strategy of accommodating multiple
polymers as a result of flexible extruder/screw design. This
allows the processing of dual polymers (e.g. PP/PA6) with the
same extruder screw at excellent melt quality levels. Other
designs are available for other polymer combinations such as
PA6/PES.
They have developed in several trials a special polyester
process for BCF. Keeping the relevant polymer characteristic in
mind they focused in the process development on crimp stability,
crimp characteristic and tenacity. For minimal operation cost
they investigated also on minimal oil pick up. All developments
have been made in their Technical Trial Centre at Winterthur,
Switzerland on a 2-end machine with HP texturing.

They reached their goal to produce polyester yarn at
competitive speed by using our new HPc texturing jet. The good
compactness of the plug is the central advantage of the SwissTex
HPc jet. Texturing speed up to 4’000 m/min causes no quality
problems.
The filament breaks will be constant on a low level. Our
produced and verified crimp results are better than leading
companies are producing.

The HPc jet is available for 2-end and 4-end machines and for
Monocolour and Tricolour machines (symTTex M20 or T20, symTTex
M40). For customers with Pathfinder or Rietex J0/10 machines we
recommend our new upgrade kit HP texturing with HPc jets.
SwissTex is preferred for complete extrusion systems for BCF
and T&I yarn, as well as individual components, upgrades and
retrofits. The company can be contacted in Pakistan through
Simag - their representative in Pakistan.
