The Swiss based SSM Schärer Schweiter Mettler AG, the inventor of the electronic yarn traverse system, continued their tradition of trend-setting with the presentation of breakthrough technologies. SSM displayed a total of five machines, showing eight new product launches for Dye Package / Rewinding, Assembly Winding, Air Texturing and Sewing Thread Finish Winding. One of the most interesting application was the introduction of the DIGICONE® 2 winding algorithm, enabling a 10-20% increase on dye package density with same dyeing recipe which is only available on the SSM XENO-platform. On the other hand the SSM X-Series are the most economized winding solution, reduced to the max yet maintaining highest flexibility for any cost efficient winding application.
