Loepfe ties up with Loptex for contamination detection

Loepfe Brothers and Loptex have
recently announced a distinguished strategic collaboration targeted at further
improving yarn quality and productivity for spinning mills.

Both companies have a long track
record of supporting spinning industry customers with latest technology to
improve their performance and profitability. This new collaboration brings Loepfe’s
YarnMaster Prisma and YarnMaster Zenit+ yarn clearers together with Loptex Exa and
Centra sorters for a complete solution supplied by Loepfe.

This integrated offering combines the
advantages of eliminating contamination at the opening stages of production
with additional refinement of the yarn further down the line at the winding stage.
The net result for spinning mills is production of the highest quality yarns
while generating less waste, greater machine efficiency and less energy
consumption.

Loptex CEO, Renato Gerletti, commented: “We welcome this collaboration which harnesses the strengths
of both the Loptex and Loepfe products for our customers. There are many
synergies between the approaches of our two companies, not least of these being
our dedication to using leading edge technology to deliver great results for
spinning mills everywhere.”

Loepfe CEO, Dr Ralph Mennicke, added: “We are looking forward to working with the Loptex team.
Next to our in-house R&D commitments, this is a complementary partnership
that puts customer needs first and will deliver a vital combination of top
quality and greater productivity to textile mills. As the industry emerges from
one of the most difficult trading periods in living memory, we continue to be
committed to rolling out new and innovative solutions over the months and years
to come.”
