The Autoconer 6 is the leader in all measured values: its production is 4% higher than that of its competitor, and it uses 3% less energy and 13% less compressed air.

Even if the winding machine is only responsible for about 10-15 per cent of the energy consumption (compressed air and electrical energy) when considering the classic ring spinning process, these criteria play an important role in assessing the performance of the machine. Comparative measurements in the package winding sector show that the Autoconer 6 is not only more productive than the competitors; it also consumes less energy and compressed air and uses the valuable raw material more sparingly. Provided with the latest equipment and E³ certification and with optimum settings, the Autoconer is the most efficient and cost-effective automatic winding machine on the market.
