Lenzing Instruments booth offers an update on available systems for quality- and process control of staple fibre, filament, nonwovens, woven fabric, composites and plastic film

Marc Wolpers, Director of Trützschler Nonwovens is gung-ho about the India’s nonwoven market and he is confident that he will be firming up new projects in India.

KARL MAYER Technische Textilien GmbH is a globally successful textile machinery manufacturer, which was formed by merging KARL MAYER Malimo with KARL MAYER LIBA – combining many years of know-how between them. This innovative, pioneering company supplies highly efficient bi- and multiaxial warp knitting machines for producing dry, non-crimp fabrics (NCFs) for the composites sector, as well as fibre spreading machines for the production of unidirectional fibre tapes made from a wide range of technical filament yarns.

Two spinning concepts for the economic production of high quality bico filament yarns promise tailormade solutions for all applications, explain Günter Schütt and Susanne Beyer from Oerlikon. Although bicomponent yarns have been around for about 50 years now and they are not a new phenomenon, we have seen a constant increase in demand over the past few years (with frequent fashion-related peaks in 2015, for example). Reasons for this development are manifold. In addition to current fashion trends, new, highly-efficient solutions for manufacturing textile fabrics such as circular knitting, for instance, reduce production costs.
