Oerlikon Showing Complete Solutions At Domotex Middle East
The Oerlikon’s Polymer Processing Solutions division is exhibiting at Domotex Middle East where it will be showing complete solutions ranging from melt to yarn, fibres and nonwovens.
Domotex Middle East is an event for the carpet and flooring industry and Oerlikon will be present with its joint venture partner BB Engineering at the ATAG Export & Import stall no. E10.
The company will be presenting trade fair visitors with its polycondensation plant or extrusion to textured yarn and corresponding digital solutions.
“This holistic approach enables us to supply all process steps from a single source and guarantee coordinated technology that ensures production of highest quality yarn,’ Sales Director Jilali Lakraa said.
“The BCF S8 system offers high productivity and expands the product portfolio to a level that can hold its own in a constantly changing market,” the German company informed in a press release.
With its latest development in bicomponent yarns for carpet production, Oerlikon Neumag meets the carpet market’s demand for new innovative BCF yarns.
“The new BICO BCF yarn is characterised by a richer and higher volume while significantly reducing raw material consumption in carpet production,” Jilali Lakraa explained.
Oerlikon’s knowledge of all relevant technologies in manmade fibre spinning makes it the only manufacturer in the world to offer a comprehensive range of services for the production of carpet yarns.
The plant concept based on a POY and texturing process is designed for a carpet and home textile product range that requires particularly soft and fluffy polyester yarns with BCF-like properties.
The aim here is to produce yarns with a maximum count of 1200den and over 1000 filaments and typical products are 1200den f1152 or 600den f1152 as well as 900den f864.
The machine concept consists of the well-known WINGS HD POY winder and the eAFK Big V texturing machine.
Whether carpets and upholstery fabrics, fashion and sports or seat belts and airbags – a wide range of products is no challenge for the VarioFil system from BB Engineering.
The compact turnkey system is also ideal for producers who manufacture small batch sizes or specialized products.
It is similarly flexible when processing different polymers, regardless of whether they are PET, PP, PA 6 and PA 6.6 or PBT.
Customised conversion packages allow the system to be quickly adapted to constantly changing market requirements.
In combination with Oerlikon texturing machines, a wide range of end products can be covered. This ranges from standard textile yarns to textured yarns with BCF-like properties.
