FET exhibits at ITMA 2023

Fibre Extrusion Technology Ltd (FET) of Leeds, UK will be exhibiting at ITMA 2023, taking place between 8-14 June Milan, Italy. FET has commissioned its biggest ever stand to reflect the company’s commitment to this event and the textile industry.

FET designs, develops and manufactures extrusion equipment for a wide range of high value textile material applications worldwide. Central to FET’s success has always been its ability to provide customers with advanced facilities and equipment, together with unrivalled knowledge and expertise in research and production techniques.

The new FET Fibre Development Centre will further improve this service, allowing clients to trial their own products in an ideal environment. Resident equipment in the Fibre Development Centre reflects the wide range of fibre extrusion systems offered by FET to clients worldwide and will enable continued growth of the company through innovation.

For the first time at ITMA, the new FET Spunbond range will feature. This system provides opportunities for the scaled development of new nonwoven fabrics based on a wide range of fibres and polymers, including bicomponents. Recent customers to benefit from FET spunbond systems include the University of Leeds and an integrated metlblown / spunbond system at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany.

FET’s established expertise remains in laboratory and pilot meltspinning equipment for a vast range of applications, such as precursor materials used in high value technical textiles, sportswear, medical devices and specialised novel fibres from exotic and difficult to process polymers. FET has successfully processed almost 30 different polymer types in multifilament, monofilament and non-woven formats, collaborating with specialist companies worldwide to promote greater sustainability through innovative manufacturing processes. Where melt spinning solutions are not suitable, FET provides a viable alternative with pilot and small scale production wet spinning systems.

A major theme at ITMA will again be sustainability. The FET range of laboratory and pilot extrusion lines is ideally suited for both process and end product development of sustainable materials. “This year we are celebrating FET’s 25th anniversary” says FET Managing Director Richard Slack “and we look forward to meeting customers at ITMA, where we can discuss their fibre technology needs.”

Fong’s Europe: THEN Airflow developments at ITMA 2023

At ITMA 2023 in Milan from June 8-14, Fong’s Europe will introduce its latest THEN Synergy Airflow and THEN Airjetwin machines, which exploit the principle to provide high-quality, efficient and eco-friendly dyeing processes for a variety of fabrics.

“THEN introduced its first machines with Airflow technology in 1980 and since then we have had wide experience of pretreating and dyeing with Airflow transport systems on all kind of fabrics,” says Fong’s Europe Director of Sales and Marketing Richard Fander. “Our team of engineers has collected data on dyeing processes, results and consumption figures for years and constantly makes use of this accumulated know-how to optimise the processes of our customers.

“The THEN team understands Airflow dyeing processes and technology based on it guarantees the lowest liquor ratio on round shape machines. The transport of fabric by air reduces the liquor ratio compared to every kind of hydraulically driven transport system.”

“The THEN team understands Airflow dyeing processes and technology based on it guarantees the lowest liquor ratio on round shape machines. The transport of fabric by air reduces the liquor ratio compared to every kind of hydraulically driven transport system.”

He adds that while not every fabric can be dyed and treated on Airflow machines with the same handle and appearance as on hydraulic round shape or long shape machines, where it is applicable, it can lead to significant savings of up to 35% in water, 50% in salt, 20% in dyestuffs and 30% in process time.

The THEN Airflow dyeing machines have several features, including several parallel functions for reducing process time. The VPR system shortens the rinsing time and water usage and the robust and homogeneous spraying device in the nozzle ensures a uniform dyeing in the shortest process time. The very short liquor ratio also reduces the use of salt and chemicals.

ITMA 2023: Zünd präsentiert digitalen Einzellagen-Zuschnitt

Zünd stellt auf der ITMA 2023 in Mailand die Vorzüge des digitalen Einzellagen-Zuschnitts in der modernen Bekleidungsherstellung in den Fokus seines Messeauftritts.

Zünd zeigt auf der Messe die Vorteile des individuellen Zuschnitts on demand und welche Vorteile der einlagige Zuschnitt von Textilien bietet. Im Zuge der Digitalisierung hat sich das Marktumfeld der Bekleidungsindustrie verändert. Die Produzenten begegnen der zunehmenden Digitalisierung und immer kürzeren Produktlebenszyklen mit Investitionen in schlanke und hochautomatisierte Produktionsworkflows. Lösungen von Zünd unterstützten die Prozessrationalisierung von der Bestellung bis zum Zuschnitt und minimieren gleichzeitig manuelle Eingriffe.

Zünd stellt auf der ITMA 2023 in Mailand die Vorzüge des digitalen Einzellagen-Zuschnitts in der modernen Bekleidungsherstellung in den Fokus seines Messeauftritts.

Zünd zeigt auf der Messe die Vorteile des individuellen Zuschnitts on demand und welche Vorteile der einlagige Zuschnitt von Textilien bietet. Im Zuge der Digitalisierung hat sich das Marktumfeld der Bekleidungsindustrie verändert. Die Produzenten begegnen der zunehmenden Digitalisierung und immer kürzeren Produktlebenszyklen mit Investitionen in schlanke und hochautomatisierte Produktionsworkflows. Lösungen von Zünd unterstützten die Prozessrationalisierung von der Bestellung bis zum Zuschnitt und minimieren gleichzeitig manuelle Eingriffe.

Die Einzellagencutter von Zünd sind die Schneidwerkzeuge in einer digitalisierten Produktion, die dem Hersteller Flexibilität und Profitabilität bieten. Intelligente Automatisierungsfunktionen, optische Lösungen und Softwaretools erleichtern die Ressourcenoptimierung, behalten den Materialverbrauch im Auge und unterstützen Mitarbeitende, die sich wertschöpfenden Tätigkeiten zuwenden können. Mit dem digitalen Einzellagenzuschnitt beschleunigen Hersteller ihren Zuschnitt und erweitern gleichzeitig ihre Produktionskapazitäten. Sie können dank einer sehr wirtschaftlichen und effizient skalierbaren On-Demand-Produktion Bestellungen sehr kurzfristig annehmen und die Lieferzeiten problemlos einhalten. Nachfragespitzen lassen sich einfach bewältigen.

Zünd Cutter eröffnen dem Anwender eine neue Flexibilität in seinem Produktionsworkflow. Er kann mit komplexen Motiven, anspruchsvollen Textilien und unterschiedlichen Formen arbeiten. Die Schneidtechnologie ermöglicht es der Bekleidungsindustrie, hochindividualisierte Massbekleidung in Kleinserien und on demand genauso wirtschaftlich und effizient zu fertigen wie in hohen Stückzahlen. Sie kann in kürzerer Zeit mehr Aufträge bearbeiten und abwickeln. Gleichzeitig werden sowohl Material als auch Zeit gespart. In Kombination mit der Produktionssoftware MindCut und dem präzisen einlagigen Zuschnitt entsteht fast kein Verschnitt. Die Schnittteile können sehr nahe aneinander und nahe an die Materialkanten genestet werden. Das bietet nicht nur einiges an Sparpotenzial, sondern hilft dazu noch, den ökologischen Fussabdruck zu verkleinern.
