SUESSEN will present innovations at Saigontex 2014

SUESSEN EliTe®Compact Spinning System (c) 2014 SUESSEN

At Saigontex 2014 which will take place in Ho-Chi-Minh City (Vietnam) at 10th - 13th April SUESSEN (Hall 6 / Booth 6B - 15 & 17) exhibits together with the local Agent Corvet holding AG. SUESSEN has defined highest goals for the exhibition. The company wants to demonstrate their leadership in compact ring spinning and open-end rotor spinning technology.

Show highlights of SUESSEN will be the EliTe®CompactSet V5, the HP-GX 3010 top weighting arm, the ACP quality package with new PINSpacer NT and the EliVAC-CDS vacuum system. Also important will be their Premium Parts - spinning components and spare parts.

Besides this technolocial demonstration the company wants to explain to their customers the many benefits they provide in terms of improved technology and productivity and how impressive return on investments can be achieved by the acquisition of modernization packages.

Rainer Thum, Head Technical Documentation, says: "We place the Saigontex 2014 exhibition under the slogan '... market oriented solutions' demonstrating our competence in handling and processing natural and man-made-fibres within the ring- and rotor spinning fibre formation process. At SUESSEN, we feel that we are truly able to differentiate our products from those of the competition."

Since its foundation in 1920, Suessen has been of great value for the spinning industry by an immeasurable amount of innovations and developments with lasting effect and influence on the history of spinning. Some historic developments are the TwinDisc for OpenEnd-Rotor SpinBoxes, the SpinBoxes SE-Series for Autocoro Rotor Spinning Machines SE 7 – SE 10, the HP Drafting Systems for ring spinning and roving machines and the EliTe®Compact Spinning System. Worldwide SUESSEN has sold over 6.500.000 units EliTe®Compact Spindles.

Thum again: "We make considerable investments in continuous R&D, combined with applied research that is directly carried out at our customers’ mills. This ensures that we are able to further develop our technical and technological components in both an uncompromising and resolute manner. In particular, we focus on universal applicability, improved yarn quality, increased service life, reduced maintenance and proven reliability in industrial application."

EliVAC CDS - Central Duct Solution The central suction duct is located on top of the ring spinning machine, the vacuum is generated by one motor with filter box. The main advantages are:

Easy and fast installation
No rotating drive shafts, pulleys, belts, bearings…
No individual fans for groups of EliTubes
Less energy consumption by approx. 20%
Less maintenance required
Fewer spare parts required
The yarn quality remains unchanged

ACP Quality Package with new PINSpacer NT

The Active Cradle with the PINSpacer NT improves the drafting process by an enhanced interfiber friction in the main draft zone. The Active Cradle with flexible leading edge and optimised pin position:

improves the values of the most important yarn parameters and
is suitable for all popular top weighting arms

Temco launches a new DTY all-in-one solution

Temco introduces the DTY All-in-One Solution – a fully harmonized set of components engineered to give customers a highly stable, low maintenance and reproducible process environment. The solution reduces interruptions, extends component lifetimes and supports consistent yarn quality across all machine positions. All-in-One Solution – a fully harmonized set of components engineered to provide maintenance and reproducible process environment.

DIENES at Techtextil 2026: Flexible pilot lines for bio-based fiber development

The growing relevance of bio-based materials in technical textiles is accompanied by increasing demands for reproducibility, high-quality data, and scalable process routes. Especially when working with cellulose and its derivatives, chitosan, lignin-based approaches, or bio-based PAN as a carbon-fiber precursor, R&D teams face variable feedstock quality, tighter process windows, and the need for reliable comparability across trials. This calls for flexible, data-driven experimental setups that can be reconfigured efficiently when recipes, solvents, and raw-material batches change.

RETECH showcases high-precision godets for high-performance fiber processing at Techtextil 2026

RETECH designs and manufactures godets and draw frames for heated, ambient and cooled processes, enabling precise heat treatment and consistently high yarn quality for a wide range of polymers and applications, with process temperatures of up to 400 °C for high-performance fibers. The company’s key competence lies in exact and stable temperature and speed control, individually adapted to the specific material and process requirements.

New study shows low environmental impact by Cotton made in Africa Organic Cotton from Tanzania

Today, the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) is announcing the results of a comprehensive life-cycle analysis (LCA) for cotton produced in Tanzania under the Cotton made in Africa Organic (CmiA Organic) standard. The study emphasises the small ecological footprint of CmiA Organic verified cotton. This can largely be traced back to the absence of synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilisers, and artificial irrigation. Consequently, CmiA Organic cotton can help the textile industry meet regulatory requirements as well as science-based targets. The results also show that the consequences of climate change threaten the livelihoods of these cotton farmers, even though the type of agriculture they practise barely contributes to climate change.

PERFORMANCE DAYS proves its relevance as the industry’s key meeting point

Held on March 18–19, 2026, PERFORMANCE DAYS once again confirmed its position as a leading international platform for functional textiles. A total of 3.366 trade visitors and around 560 exhibitors gathered in Munich, with the event already kicking off successfully on DAY 0, which received highly positive feedback for its interactive format. Despite challenging conditions caused by the public transport strike in Munich, the event saw strong attendance and a consistently high level of activity across both exhibition days.
