Swiss spinning solutions by Rotorcraft AG

Rotorcraft stands for Swiss Innovations in Spinning Technology. The latest innovation that Rotorcraft has successfully brought to the ring spinning market is the second generation of Compact Spinning Systems, RoCoS (Rotorcraft Compact Spinning).

This new generation of Compact Spinning Systems attains the yarn quality improvements introduced by the first generation of compacting systems, while performing considerably more economically and consistently than the conventional pneumatic compacting systems. With annual power savings compared to pneumatic systems between 6 and 8 Euros per spindle, Rocos involves considerably lower capital investment.

RoCoS produces COMPACT YARN without expensive pneumatic air suction; which means:

• Lower initial investment cost than  pneumatic systems while delivering identical spinning results;
• Lower cost of production for wear and tear parts;
• Better quality of regular yarn at the same cost or; lower cost for same quality as regular yarn.

For the textile chain the benefits are:

For spinning in addition to all other improvements, compacted yarn ensures a better fibre yield, less fly and fluff resulting in less waste. In weaving warping performance improves which results in up to 10% savings in sizing, increasing the loom efficiency and reduced fibre abrasion.

For knitting with Rocos Compact yarn less fly and fluff, less cleaning, better machine performance and improved fabric appearance can be expected.

In Dyeing, Finishing, End Product, there is reduced shrinkage, no or reduced fabric singeing, less dyestuff consumption, improved colour brilliance, clearer contours on prints, jacquards, multicolour, chequered and stripes and no or reduced enzyme treatment.
