Saurer
(Booth: E1 F01)
Saurer Group will present its full range of
new technologies in fiber processing from raw material to a multitude of yarns
during the upcoming Shanghaitex 2017. The product range further includes
different finishing processes.

Saurer will be present with its machinery
brands: Schlafhorst, Zinser, Allma, Volkmann, Saurer Embroidery; and Components
brands: Accotex, Daytex, Fibrevision, Temco, Texparts.
At a length of 2,016 spindles, the Zinser
72 ring spinning machine breaks the 2,000 barrier and sets new standards for
efficiency in the commodity segment. The new both-end TwinSuction system,
combined with the sensor-controlled OptiSuction yarn break suction system,
achieves an energy saving during suction.
The ZinserImpact 72 compact spinning
machine is equipped with the self-cleaning Impact FX unit and guarantees top
productivity and optimal raw material utilization.
The fully automatic Autocoro 9 using
individual spinning positions technology sets new standards for productivity,
efficiency and quality. The unmatched rotor speeds, machine lengths and take-up
speeds reduce the spinning cost and energy consumption considerably by a
two-digit percentage value.
In addition, intelligent automated
processes and Lean Maintenance reduce the maintenance costs. This increases the
user-friendliness and saves on personnel costs.
The new semi-automatic BD 7 machine is also
in a league of its own, producing impressive packages in Autocoro quality in
all package sizes up to 320mm in diameter.

The BD 7 reduces spinning costs and
increases profitability by optimized, reduced energy consumption, rapid take-up
speeds on all lengths and an improved space utilization.
2.5 million delivered Autoconer winding
units – this unparalleled record in the sector sends a clear message: the
Autoconer is the synonym for efficient package winding for more than 50 years.
The Autoconer 6 with E³ sets now again
standards regarding energy, economics and ergonomics. Additionally with its
quality packages and leading automation solutions, the Autoconer offers
measurable benefits both during winding and in downstream processing.
Innovations such as LaunchControl, SmartCycle,
SmartJet or Eco-Drum-Drive system as well as intelligent sensor technology,
smart process control and auto calibration functions have proven their worth in
textile practice.
Allma and Volkmann are the world’s leading
manufacturers of twisting and cabling machines and will be presenting the
CompactTwister – High-performance Two-for-One twisting machine for staple fibre
yarns, and the CableCorder CC4 – Direct cabling machine for high quality tire
cord.
Both products are characterized by low
energy consumption, high economic efficiency and machine productivity as well as
high operating convenience and have been certified with the Saurer E³ label for
their triple added value. Visitors will be also informed about innovative
products and solutions in the companies’ other segments: carpet yarns,
industrial yarns and glass filament yarns.
Sedo Treepoint
(Booth: W4 B08)

Sedo Treepoint will exhibit technological
highlights together with Sedo Engineering. Top innovations from Sedo Treepoint
are the Industry 4.0 and China 2025 automation concepts which will increase
productivity and energy efficiency.
Having a Sedomat controlling the dyeing
machine, this opens the door to the latest technologies for an automatic dye
house: with new software applications for energy management, printing
management, a deeper integration and higher automation can be achieved.
Simulation of production orders can reduce machine downtimes and will give
machine operators the best possible plan for production.
As a leading company in color management,
the company highlights also recipe software and process optimization to save
water, dyestuff and effluent in production. A lot of the know-how can be stored
in the system, so that human errors are avoided. By entering rules, automatic
optimization will achieve tremendous savings.
Meanwhile, Sedo Engineering shows their new
revolutionary way to produce SmartIndigo for denim. It opens up the industrial
production of Leuco-Indigo on the basis of electrochemical reduction for the
first time. This environmentally friendly process is a global Innovation. The
smarter way to indigo is trendsetting for the whole denims industry.
SSM
(Booth: E1 A70, E1 D30)

The Swiss based SSM Schärer Schweiter
Mettler AG, the inventor of the electronic yarn traverse system, announces
their participation of the ShanghaiTex on the booth of their agent Union
Trading as well as on the booth of Rieter Components.
After the successful introduction of the
XENO-platform in Asia in 2016, SSM has put the focus on the X-Series this year.
With the latest application for cone-to-muff and muff-to-cone winding, SSM
offers a highly flexible and economical system.
To maintain a high residual elasticity of
elastic Polyamide (PA) and Polyester (PES) draw textured yarns (DTY) after
dyeing, the muff dyeing process with integrated SSM leading yarn winding
technology is the best solution.
The new SSM PWX-CTM enables the preparation
of low-density muffs, while maintaining the highest possible elasticity of the
yarn throughout the dyeing process.
For the highest flexible and productive
rewinding, the SSM PWX-MTC offers the proper solution; regardless whether
muffs, hanks, dye packages on dye tubes or coreless dye packages are to be
rewound.

TECNORAMA
(Booth: W4 B25)
Dos&Dye is a complete automatic system
composed by a Dosorama dispensing machine and a Dyrama robotized dyeing machine
able to work autonomously 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Conceived and manufactured by TECNORAMA, the
system can manage and perform laboratory dyeing cycles, and increasing the
productivity both for laboratory and bulk.
In the laboratory, it reduces the dyeing
trials to obtain the exact recipe thanks to the complete reproduction of dyeing
cycle exactly as in the bulk machines in preparing, dyeing, soaping and washing.
The right first time result grants the exact
recipe coming from the laboratory in order to drastically reduce the
corrections after dyeing and the re-dyeing into bulk machines with a huge
saving of the time dedicated to a production batch and the increase of the
whole productivity of the dye house.
Thanks to the optimization of production
processes and to the overcoming of those limits inherent manual management of
the laboratory, the system allows to reduce water and energy consumption for an
environment friendly approach and for considerable saving of time and money.
