Oerlikon Neumag presents itself as sustainable

Presentation of the Rotac 3 at ITMA 2015 in Milan (c) 2016 TexData
At this year’s Domotex trade show in Hanover, Germany, Oerlikon Neumag presents itself with its diverse range of products and services in Hall 5, Stand A31. The world’s leading trade fair for carpets and flooring will be taking place between January 16 and 19.
The focus of the Oerlikon Neumag booth will be on solutions for the sustainable manufacture of carpet yarns. The fact that this is also a major trend in BCF yarn production is shown by the exemplary success of the RoTac tangling unit. 

RoTac³ convincing yarn manufacturers

Since the market launch of the RoTac3 as the new tangling unit for the BCF S+ system a year ago, almost 90 percent of all new sales have been equipped with the rotating tangling unit. The retrofitting business with the component is also operating well, comments Martin Rademacher, Oerlikon Neumag Sales Director: “For us, this is a signal that energy costs are playing an increasingly important role in BCF production.”

The RoTac has been deployed as the tangling unit in the single-end Sytec One system since 2012. Meanwhile, virtually all Sytec One systems are sold with the RoTac tangling unit. To this end, the further development of the unit to create a three-end system was a logical consequence.

Well-equipped for all requirements

With its range of systems, the market leader from Neumünster covers almost all requirements of carpet yarn manufacturers, something that is demonstrated by the high demand for the BCF S+ and Sytec One systems. While the S+ is a convincing solution for commercial applications, the Sytec One is particularly good for demanding production processes due to its monofilament character. “With the S+ and Sytec One, were are extremely well positioned within the BCF market worldwide. We can cover practically all customer requirements with these two systems”, summarizes Martin Rademacher.
