The demanding challenges in the global textile industry have been challenging and promoting the innovative thinking of the German company Rosink for seven decades. Being integrated into the Neuenhauser Group in 2015, Neuenhauser Rosink, which continues to operate independently, has opened up additional growth potential and greater networking opportunities.

In the same year, at ITMA, the world’s largest international textile and garment technology exhibition, Rosink presented the cot grinding machine SZ2, a service machine that stands for the successful history and promising future prospects of Neuenhauser Rosink.

"Our SZ2 is the best cot grinding machine on the market," says Martin Schoolkate, Head of Rosink Division, with conviction, thereby expressing the growing self-consciousness within the entire Rosink team. "The first-class grinding results have a direct effect on the quality of the yarn," Schoolkate continues. Designed for semi-automatic grinding of centre guided top rollers, the SZ2 is used in ring spinning and open-end spinning mills. Since its introduction at the ITMA 2015, the service machine has made a name for itself in many countries, but Neuenhauser Rosink announces to continue walking on its path of success since it has not yet been ended. Many customers shall become more aware about the benefits of the cot grinding machine SZ2 based on the promises of reliability, flexibility and longevity on which the team of the tradition-rich company counts.

An SZ2 has a lifetime of up to 20 years. Their complete production takes place in Neuenhaus, and experienced service technicians from Rosink are responsible for the commissioning on site. The touch screen operation is extremely intuitive and allows precise, secure settings. The basic version of the SZ2 can be extended with various products from the Neuenhauser Rosink range such as a magazine module, in order to become a fully automatic machine. This is where another long-standing strength of the company comes into play, which enables stable partnerships for years to come: Individual consulting.

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.

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.

Between innovation pressure and production readiness: Techtextil 2026 showcases market-ready defence textiles

EU defence spending reached a record level of around €381 billion in 2025. The importance of textile innovation in this context is underscored by the European Defence Fund’s 2026 Work Programme, which identifies “smart and multifunctional textiles” as a dedicated priority area. Techtextil translates this demand into industrial practice. From 21 to 24 April 2026, more than 10 per cent of over 1,500 exhibitors in Frankfurt am Main will present material innovations for protective textiles.

Yarn Expo Spring 2026 concludes, connecting buyers with innovative selection of sustainable yarns and fibres

Yarn Expo Spring 2026 wrapped up successfully on 13 March, as a record-high of over 600 exhibitors from 12 countries and regions welcomed more than 25,000 visitors from 113 countries and regions. Held across 27,000 sqm in Hall 8.2 of the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai), the fair highlighted the textile industry’s accelerating shift toward a lower-impact, more functional future. Exhibitors presented eco-friendly organic, regenerated and recycled yarns and fibres, alongside innovative options such as sweat-resistant and high-performance materials. A comprehensive fringe programme further enriched the event, offering practical market insights and new networking opportunities.
