ITMA 2011 - a worthwhile investment for BRÜCKNER

One of the highlights of the booth was the exhibited coating and laminating machine with downstream arranged stenter. A newly developed floating knife / knife over cylinder coating machine which allows the most different paste or foam applications from 5 to 2000 g/m² was presented.
In the stenter entry the fabric can be coated in addition from below with a new type of wide slot nozzle. 

In addition a laminating unit integrated in the stenter entry has been presented. This unit allows to laminate mainly very tension sensitive fabric webs with diaphragms or foils. 

The visitors estimated also the exhibited machine models very much. With the help of these models the process steps and technologies could be very clearly explicated since they had many movable parts and through the transparent casing the interior of the machines was visible very well. 

  An insider tip on BRÜCKNER's booth was the presentation chamber for the newly developed POWER-FRAME ECO stenter. Low-tension fabric transport, minimum energy consumption, maximum productivity are the key words for this revolutionary dryer technology. With a central heating system, a completely new air guidance system and a sophisticated temperature control system this system allows to save up to 30 % of energy compared to usual stenters with heat recovery, depending on the process and fabric type and the production can be considerably increased. This technology was shown by means of a complex 3D animation and BRÜCKNER presented also field reports from an already existing line in production at a customer in Germany. 

The run to this presentation was very big just as the interest in other new technologies such as a new nonwovens dryer. "Sometimes we could have shut our booth because it was overcrowded", said owner Regina Brückner with satisfaction. "We are very glad about the great interest in our new developments and we feel once again confirmed in our role as technology pioneer. We thank our customers very much for their interest and the intensive discussions and we are looking forward to our future positive cooperation.
