Bräcker will show its latest applications at ITMA Asia, to be held in Shanghai from October 15 to 19, 2018 at the National Exhibition Convention Centre. The company will exhibit latest innovations in key components for ring spinning machines. Its products enable spinning mills to increase their production output at an efficient price-performance ratio. The surface treatment of the ONYX travelers facilitates a higher efficiency. The improved gliding characteristic allows for an increase of the spindle speed by up to +1000 rpm and prolongs the life of the traveler by up to +50 per cent. On top of that the running-in period is considerably reduced.

The large contact surface between SFB traveler and ORBIT ring allows increased spindle speeds even with fibers like viscose or with fibers, tending to thermal damage, e.g. polyester. Higher traveler speeds of 10 – 20 per cent are achieved compared to the T-flange ring / C-shaped traveler system. To cover the new demands, the SFB traveler portfolio was substantially expanded in regards of traveler profiles and weights.
