The Coimbatore-based Super Machine Works, part of the Super Group of companies, well known for its textile engineering, has made rapid inroads into the market with its quality products. The company will be introducing its latest drawframe autoleveller model, Super Ultima ASD 1200i, at ITME 2016.
A Thangavel, Founder Promoter, Super Machine Works, informed, “We had participated in ITME’s 1992, 1996 and 2000 editions. Then there was some restructuring and upgradation of technology and infrastructure in our group companies, due to which we didn’t participate for a brief period. Subsequently though, we once again started participating from 2012 onwards. ITME is a one-of-its-kind trade show and participation in it will help us showcase our latest product offerings.”
The company is introducing its new drawframe autoleveller model – Super Ultima ASD 1200i at the event. “Visitors can get a close look at the product at our stall in Hall 1 – E 22. With the latest technology and features, we are sure that it will surpass the popularity of our earlier model – Super Ultima ASD 1000i, said TS Sundaram, Joint Managing Director. Highlighting the key reason that has made the company stand out from the rest, Sundaram observed, “Quality need not be costly – has always been our motto. We endeavour to offer machines that match those that are offered by leading global OEMs in terms of quality, output, and performance, but at an affordable price.”
Saurer is coming up with its machinery brands; Schlafhorst, Zinser, Allma, Volkmann, Saurer Embroidery and Components brands; Accotex, Daytex, Fibrevision, Temco, Texparts in Hall 1, booth H1B12C11 at ITME. The Zinser Impact 72 made in India will be shown for the first time at ITME along with Saurer’s full range of innovative products.
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 machine is super-long, super-economical and extremely user-friendly. It lowers production costs by up to 11 per cent and has a footprint that is up to 21 per cent smaller compared with shorter rival machines. The new both-end Twin Suction system, combined with the sensor-controlled Opti Suction yarn break suction system, achieves an energy saving of up to 66 per cent during suction. The Zinser Impact 72 compact spinning machine is equipped with the self-cleaning Impact FX unit and guarantees top productivity, maximum process reliability and optimal raw material utilisation. Zinser is the only supplier offering excellent opportunities for the highest possible degree of automation in the ring spinning mill, adapted to individual customer requirements.
In ring spinning, one of the highlights will be the EliTe Compact Set, a compact spinning system, which can be installed on nearly all types of ring spinning machines. The system includes various innovations resulting in better yarn quality and increased productivity. An example is the Eli Tube Concept: as the fibre path within the drafting system is off-centred and the slot inclination is varied from left to right depending on the machine side, the use of top roller cots and aprons can be doubled. The main goal of this and the other innovations is increasing lifetime of the components and reducing maintenance costs. The EliTe Compact Set can be equipped with the optional Eli Twist enabling the production of compact two-ply yarn on ring spinning machines. Eli Twist is highly suitable to spin two-ply core yarns.
Suessen will also present various new Premium Parts for rotor spinning machines. The new Twist Trap Navel is a modified navel with a patented twist-retaining element. The navel, which is applicable to all types of Spin Boxes, provides an additional false twist, which results in better spinning stability. The production increases by 10 per cent to 15 per cent due to the possible twist reduction. Another new Premium Part is the PS7 Twin Disc. There is substantially less flexing work between rotor shaft and disc, as the width of the disc is reduced from 10 mm to 7 mm. Due to the lower energy consumption – up to 11 W per spinning unit are possible depending on the rotor speed – the pay-back period of this innovative component is very short.
The latest innovation, Eco PulsarS winding machine, will be displayed for the first time to the Indian market, after the launch in Milan last year and the roadshow in Turkey and China. Eco PulsarS, with its sustainable eco-green advantage, replies to the market demand of energy saving, including also room air conditioning, together with improved production performances, high quality packages and utmost flexibility. The combination of all new features and design has created an environment in which each part of the machine can operate at its optimum level and without limitations. Eco PulsarS with its innovative platform can save up to 30 per cent power bill thanks to ‘Suction on Demand’ system.
SIRIUS TFO twisting machine responds to the demands of customers looking for a significant reduction in labour and energy. Besides the demand to sustain low investment costs and lower energy consumption, the customers also take on great importance time and cost of maintenance. This new model foresees a high structural standardization, a wide range both for feeding and spindle dimensions for every yarn type and count, electronic solutions to simplify the operator intervention and reduce the maintenance workforce. The Electronic Drive System (EDS) version differs from the mechanical version for the full flexibility of setting adjustments. The Sirius EDS model is equipped with independent inverters and motors, which allow setting all processing parameters by the machine PC.
Spindles in modern ring spinning machines reach speeds of up to 25,000 rpm. In these high-speed applications energy consumption is an important issue. Novibra is now introducing the new LENA (Low Energy consumption and Noise Absorption) high-speed spindles. LENA design has been developed from well-proven Noise Absorbing System Assembly (NASA), which ensures minimum neck bearing load, vibration and noise level at high speed. The unique wharve diameter of 17,5 mm and the footstep bearing diameter of 3 mm lead to a lower energy consumption. LENA is designed for tube lengths up to 200-210 mm.
Another new product presented at ITME is the clamping and cutting crown CROCOdoff, which is also available as the version CROCOdoff Forte for coarse yarns. The crown is operated by the spindle speed and has been designed for machines with autodoffer. The improved design of the “teeth” guarantees a reliable clamping and cutting of the yarn. In addition, the CROCOdoff reduces the risk of yarn breakage during start-up, decreases energy consumption, minimises material loss and reduces maintenance. CROCOdoff is suitable for the use with new machines as well as an upgrade for existing machines.
