DTY Jet insert APe043 redefines low denier yarn processing

Heberlein Technology, a leader in air interlacing and texturing jets, is set to showcase its latest products at GTTES in Mumbai, India. Key highlights include the new housing generation HemaJet-LB06 and the DTY jet insert APe043, featuring a record-small 0.65 mm orifice for superior performance in extremely low denier yarns.

Record-small 0.65mm orifice launched during GTTES 2025

The Indian market drives demand for lightweight, premium fabrics using ultra-fine yarns, especially for activewear and luxury garments. The surge in synthetic fibre manufacturing positions Heberlein’s innovations as essential tools for meeting these needs. Visitors at GTTES 2025 receive first-hand information at Heberlein and are warmly invited to come and see the Swiss company at booth D17 in hall 3.

APe043 Jet insert improves productivity and profitability

The APe043 Jet insert minimizes yarn displacement, preventing undeveloped knots and ensuring smooth production for ultra-fine yarns down to 20 denier. This new technical development aligns with the increasing demand for high-quality fabrics in global markets and supports the rapid growth of polyamide filament production capacity. On top, the APe043 jet insert features energy-efficient technology resulting in a positive impact on the mill’s profit.

HemaJet-LB06 – the economic solution for ATY

Heberlein, known for the production of high-quality jets for air texturing, offers the complete solution from a single source. The brand new robust HemaJet-LB06 jet housing is compatible with all Heberlein jet core series (T, A, and S).

This compatibility makes it an ideal solution for various air texturing process requirements. The distance between the impact body and the jet core can be easily adjusted using various gauges, allowing for precise control and optimization of the texturing process.

Heberlein jet cores are the reliable solution for the ATY industry for decades. Suiting a wide range of requirements like compact and uniform yarns from 30dtex up to 3,000dtex or softer, textile yarns achieved through a higher overfeed potential. In a nutshell, Heberlein provides the ideal solution for every application. Customers can choose from the great jet core portfolio and whatever jet core fits the needs, it fits – guaranteed – the housing too.

The new generation of spinning jet

Worldwide recognition receives the PolyJet-SP3 for spinning textile yarn. Producers of demanding technical yarns highly appreciate the PolyJet-TG-3-HP405A/WO70 (TopAir) achieving yarn with unmatched even and uniform interlacing density. Furthermore, this jet impresses customers with strong, reliable knots for high-tenacity yarns (HT and HMLS). Heberlein’s PolyJet-TG-3 achieves more than 12 knots per meter with 1100f98dtex and 1670f98dtex. Additionally, yarn parameters of tensile strength, elongation, and elasticity show smaller variations, for ultimate quality benefits, as well as improved unwinding behaviour of the bobbins.

A typical Heberlein benefit comes with the PolyJet series SP-3 and TG-3. The high-performance air interlacing jets for textile and technical yarns offer a unique quick-release system, so jet packs can be exchanged within seconds, with just a single 180-degree turn. They also feature a compact, space-saving design and a roll bar to protect the ceramic surfaces.

Jets developed for filament perfection

Heberlein Technology AG, Wattwil, Switzerland, October 2, 2025 – Heberlein, the leading supplier of air interlacing and air texturing jets, aims to impress visitors at ITMA Asia + CITME 2025. Novel solutions will be presented, which will allow filament yarn producers to achieve special quality specifications and process optimization. As expected from Heberlein, these latest developments combine the most sophisticated technology with user convenience and savings potential.

It’s the know-how that counts

The Textile Technology Centre is the pride of Heberlein. State-of-the-art equipment and a team of top experts guarantee the highest standards of support for customers.

A dynasty of innovators across 190 years

The art of reorientation runs through Heberlein's 190-year company history. Georg Philipp Heberlein and his descendants ran an exemplary family business with roots in yarn dyeing. It developed into a corporate group and ultimately became a highly specialised company that is regarded as the world’s leading provider of air interlacing and air texturing jets for synthetic continuous filament yarns.

ATY one-stop solution provider ready for China

Heberlein, the leading supplier of air interlacing and air texturing jets, aims to impress visitors at ITMA Asia + CITME 2024 with an amazing technical achievement in DTY and the latest components, including the brand new HemaJet-LB06. The jet housing shows great compatibility and makes the Swiss company a one-stop supplier for air-texturing processing.

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.

High-performance yarns for tomorrow's mobility

At this year's Techtextil in Frankfurt (April 21–24), Barmag will be presenting comprehensive solutions for the production of industrial filament yarns at the VDMA joint stand (Hall 12, C56). The focus will be on applications that ensure greater safety, durability, and efficiency in automotive engineering.
