Accotex® J 465 – New benchmark in staple fibre vision Münster, April 12th, 2010 – Oerlikon Textile Components GmbH with its product line Accotex has given a straight answer to the increasing flexibility requirements of its customers. With the launch of Accotex® J 465 and the colour turquoise Oerlikon Textile Components created a synonym for flexibility and excellent properties of Accotex spinning cots. The new soft cot Accotex® with 65 shore is suited for combed and carded yarn qualities in a yarn counter range from Ne 18 to Ne 50. Therefore it completely fulfils the requirements of all customers who asked for such spinning cots. This gives the opportunity to proceed more flexible with different preparation types and a larger yarn counter range. Through a team of technologists and chemists the development of Accotex® J 465 found its success in adding an advanced anti-static additive which notably reduces the lapping tendency and helps to further optimise the fibre guiding properties of the cot in order to further optimise the binding of fibres. All in all the new Accotex® J 465 offers numerous advantages: The new elastomer composition and the application range which already starts from Ne 18 ensures that combed and carded qualities can be produced with Accotex® J 465 and therefore stands for maximum flexibility in use. Through the optimised anti-static composition the new Accotex® J 465 enables excellent running properties and guarantees that the maximum constant yarn quality possible with the specific fibre quality is reached. Furthermore it permits low lapping tendency over wide climate areas. In comparison to soft cots the new Accotex® J 465 provides maximum service life and consequently implies less frequent grinding intervals. The abrasion resistance has been improved. The elastomer composition allows consistently and durable elastic properties over the entire live cycle and therefore results in a durable and reliable fibre clamping. This gives the opportunity to save the fibre control.
