preventing contamination of the web. Some waste here is inevitable, but Uster Jossi Vision Shield N controls this by continuously measuring the speed at which the fibre tufts pass through. It then uses precision valves to time each ejection perfectly, so that only the unwanted contaminant is removed, with an absolute minimum of ‘good’ fibre being lost. Fitting every line Uster Jossi Vision Shield N is the result
of surveys, close collaboration with international nonwovens companies and countless hours of field tests. Installation is easy, since the fibre cleaner’s slim design fits perfectly into existing lines. The system readily copes with the pace of standard production environments – up to a capacity of 2,000 kg/hr. Customers can choose between widths of 1,600 and 1,200 mm, with specific solutions available for challenging environments and with any type of material. Stainless steel inserts,
in areas which come into contact with the fibres, guarantee unmatched durability, says the company. The future-oriented graphical user interface gives a quick overview of running performance in real-time, on a large high-resolution touchscreen, showing the most relevant data at a glance. User-friendly, quick and intuitive navigation makes data handling easy. Join Uster at Techtextil on B55 in Hall 12.0.
Enhancing productivity and efficiency in nonwovens At this year’s Techtextil, Oerlikon
HycuTEC – technological quantum leap for filter media In the case of its HycuTEC hydro-charging solution, Oerlikon Neumag offers a new technology for charging nonwovens that increases filter efficiency to more than 99.99%, the company says. For meltblown producers, this means material savings of 30% with significantly superior filter performance. For end users, the consequence is noticeably improved comfort resulting from significantly reduced breathing resistance. With its considerably lower water and energy consumption, this new development is also a future-proof, sustainable technology, Oerlikon adds.
simultaneously stretch in a controlled manner in emergencies in order to reduce the load in the event of impact. A seat belt comprises approximately 300 filament yarns, whose individual, high-tenacity yarn threads are spun from around 100 individual filaments. Dr Roy Dolmans, technology manager IDY and R&D Filament Processing, Oerlikon says: “With our unique, patented Single Filament Layer Technology, we offer a sophisticated and simultaneously gentle high-tenacity (HT) yarn process for manufacturing these lifesavers and other applications made from industrial yarn.”
Polymer Processing Solutions will be presenting the trade audience with new applications, special processes and sustainable solutions focusing on the production of industrial textiles, the company says. Among other things, Oerlikon will be showcasing new technology for charging nonwovens, with a focus on quality and efficiency. The company will be concentrating on airbags, seat belts, tire cord, geotextiles, filter nonwovens and its diverse applications. More polyester for airbags Airbags have become an integral part of our everyday automotive lives. The yarns used in them are made predominantly from polyamide. As a result of increasingly diverse airbag applications and also the increasing size of the systems used, today polyester is used as well, depending on the application requirements and cost-benefit considerations. Against this background, the Oerlikon Barmag technologies make an invaluable contribution, according to the company. In addition to high productivity and low energy consumption, the company prides itself on its stable production processes, it says. Seat belts Seat belts play a decisive role in protecting vehicle occupants. They have to withstand tensile forces in excess of three tons and
