Oerlikon Textile Components – Filament
Key components for yarn production Wattwil, February 20, 2012 - We are driven by innovations. Quality improvements, efficiency and process know how are factors that convince our customers. Under the product lines Daytex, Heberlein and Temco, Oerlikon Textile Components offers the leading products to process synthetic continuous filament yarns. We are looking forward to welcome you at this year’s ITM in Istanbul. Process and product optimization We see ourselves as innovators or in other words we are interested in our customers’ problems. The innovations on display optimize existing processes and simplify the product handling. The Heberlein® TexJet-ATY leads to a new area in air texturing and there are six main facts; • 2 up to 10 times extension in between cleaning cycles • quality improvements on textured yarn • enlargement of the process window from super fine to coarse yarns • improved process-reliability and easier handling • substantial increase in speeds • resource conservation FACT - Heberlein® TexJet-ATY = new jet geometry = new flow patterns = excellent effects! Temco® Long Life plus Friction disc designed for abrasive yarn is wear protected for a 50% higher lifetime.
Integrated bearings are designed to save energy at the highest operating conditions. The concept of Temco® Integrated Bearings is based on 30 years of experience in bearing technology for demanding and sophisticated applications. The Temco® VR60320-12 Separator Roller as an example shows the advantages of the integrated bearings, resonant free running and up to 50% higher yarn tension forces in comparison to previous designs. The corrosion resistant hard chromium or ceramic surfaces, applicable for heavy duties and depending on the final application, are designed for the best results.

The HeberleinÂŽ AirSplicer 70-2 with Phoenix knifes expands the technical performance limits with the maximum lifespan. The profit for the operator is that technical yarn, high modulus and glass fibres are now spliceable and sliceable. Phoenix high performance knifes extend the lifespan by a factor of 20 or 18,000 cuts (Basis: Aramid 8050 f 6000 dtex). The semi-automatic, knot free joining exhibits the highest splicing quality with flat, clean bound yarn ends and 75 - 100% of the base yarn strength.
The HeberleinÂŽ FibreJet-TG, suitable for technical multifilament yarns and BCF from up to 350 dtex, covers both migration and interlacing. The interlacing jet ensures a consistent performance whilst the robust, corrosion resistant housing guarantees a long product life even under the most extreme environmental conditions.
