Allma Volkmann

As the world’s leading manufacturers of twisting and cabling machines, Allma and Volkmann will be presenting innovative products and solutions in the following segments: staple fibre yarns, carpet yarns, tire cord, industrial yarns and glass filament yarns.

FusionTwister – always one step ahead: With the FusionTwister, Volkmann is presenting its two-for-one twisting machine for staple fibre yarns with the best price performance ratio. The FusionTwister is worldwide known for its high reliability as well as best twist quality and productivity due to spindle geometry for special applications, increased spindle synchronisation, optimum package build-up and high-class yarn guiding elements. Reduction in energy consumption of up to 40 per cent is ensured by the energy-optimised spindle and yarn balloon geometry.

Further customer benefits include high flexibility, low space requirement, low set-up times, less noise emission and reduced maintenance and erection time. Volkmann offers with the two-for-one twisting systems for manufacturing of staple fibre twists an optimum in variability and flexibility with considerably reduced energy consumption. And there is more: the name Volkmann stands for dedicated employees, top quality and an infrastructure for all requirements from research and development to customer service. An attractive comprehensive package is available with a range of service oriented toward customer needs – from project planning to a service guarantee with original part availability for all machine generations.

CableCorder CC4 – twist & save with E³ technology: With its future-oriented technology, the CableCorder CC4 cabling machine, which has been awarded the Saurer E³ label, offers energy savings of up to 50 per cent in the tire cord cabling process. Since energy represents by far the most significant cost factor in the overall cabling process, this promises revolutionary production cost savings for manufacturers of tire cord. The reduction in energy consumption also results in a lowering of the heat load in production facilities, which in turn leads to a lowering of air conditioning costs. The higher economic efficiency is also increased by up to 50 per cent fewer yarn breaks, improved quality and high machine efficiency. The added value for machine operators consists of low-er noise emissions in the production facility and reduced operating times thanks to user-friendly ma-chine handling. An innovative enhancement of the machine to the production of 2-ply tire cord is the option for producing also 3-ply tyre cord in a single-stage process.
