From the start, Fertichem Cotspin opted for Trützschler cards with the installation of four DK 803 units.
These were followed by two DK 903's in 2001, delivery of five DK 780's throughout 2003 and the two TC 03's in 2005. Working with two Trützschler lines, production had increased from 9t/day to 22t/day by the start of 2007, 100% cotton open end yarn in count range of Ne 4-20 count normal as well as amsler slub yarn.
Ring spun yarn: The latest expansion introduces ring spun slub and multi count yarns in count range Ne7-12. Later this year, a further 7200 spindles are to be installed together with another three TC03 cards to meet a combined spin yarn design capacity of 20t/day – and a total of 42t/day for both open end and spun yarns.
TC 03 Cards: The high performance TC 03 card has a 90kg/hr capacity for this special application and features a three licker-in roller configuration offering increased production rates, a reduced compact installation and reducing running costs including energy, filtration and maintenance.
The Trützschler TC 03 card offers a precision knife setting system for fast adjustment of waste material; fast flat exchange without tools; variable speed drive for the flats; an electronic cylinder brake to reduce cleaning and maintenance times; and Nepcontrol for online measurement of neps and trash particles.
The TC 03 also provides simple operations, easy accessibility for maintenance and lowenergy costs.
