Oerlikon Barmag has announced that its new drive unit for POY systems, launched in the beginning of the year, along with Siemens, has prominently stood out in terms of energy efficiency. Oerlikon Barmag is market leader for manmade fibre spinning systems and texturing machines. The company is a part of the leading global technology group, Oerlikon.
The requirements-specific design of the compact inverter unit ensures functional optimisation of the winder’s control functions. And the new component is used in conjunction with a performance-optimised chuck motor. This means that energy savings of up to 3 per cent can be achieved for the take-up.
“In the case of a 1,000-position system, this represents a saving of around €120,000 a year, depending on the relevant local energy costs. The many years of collaborating with our partner Siemens means that we are always state-of-the-art in terms of control technology. With our e-save-certified solutions, we are consistently able to offer our clientèle sustainable technology for the efficient manufacture of yarns”, Arnulf Sauer, responsible for winder technology at Oerlikon Barmag said in a press release.
Further customer benefits include a significant reduction in cables and cable trays. The reduced number of switching cabinets also saves space. Following intensive field tests at two well-known customers last year, the compact inverter unit was finally released for serial manufacture at the beginning of 2020. There are plans to deliver several thousand positions with the new component this year.
