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

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.

Barmag presents the next generation of POY production – energy-efficient and partial-automated

With POY 2.0, Barmag is introducing a completely redesigned spinning concept that takes the production of partially oriented yarn (POY) to a new level in terms of technology and economy. The solution, which was presented to a selected audience of experts for the first time at ITMA Asia + CITME 2025, was met with great enthusiasm: several yarn producers worldwide immediately expressed their interest in a pilot plant.

Development of bio-based polyethylene fibers for textile applications – BB Engineering partici-pates in the bioPEtex research project

In the German research project bioPEtex, BB Engineering (BBE) is working with other partners to develop textiles made from 100% bio-based polyethylene (PE). The aim is to make use of this poly-mer, which has hardly been used in the chemical fiber industry to date. BBE is contributing its spinning and texturizing expertise and developing the texturing process on an industrial scale. The first promising results are already available – opening up new opportu-nities for sustainable and economically attractive applications in the textile industry.

Smart sensors, smart savings - Reducing energy and cost in textile finishing

As energy prices, sustainability requirements and quality expectations continue to rise, manufacturers of technical textiles face increasing pressure to optimize efficiency while ensuring process reliability. At the same time, skilled labor shortages require production systems that are intuitive, automated and easy to manage. PLEVA addresses these challenges with robust, maintenance-friendly sensor technologies combined with intelligent process control.

From preparation to 3D weaving: Stäubli’s solutions at Techtextil 2026

Stäubli, a global leader in high performance weaving technologies, is pleased to announce its participation at Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, Germany, the leading international trade fair for technical textiles and nonwovens. As technical textiles continue their rapid expansion across demanding markets such as defense, mobility, aerospace, construction, energy… Stäubli will showcase innovative solutions designed to empower mills to produce the next generation of advanced fabrics. Stäubli will exhibit its trend-setting technologies at the Swiss Pavilion Booth B01.6 in Hall 12.0.
