DIENES Apparatebau GmbH and Rauschert GmbH enhance mutual cooperation

Due to the success of previous collaborations between DIENES Apparatebau GmbH and Rauschert GmbH, both partners have made the decision to extend their cooperation.

Thanks to joint technical developments and improved project coordination, DIENES Apparatebau GmbH shows a positive trend and expects a good business performance for 2017. The most recent orders for plant engineering services by a big Chinese corporation and a German institute confirm the strategic orientation of DIENES Apparatebau GmbH to concentrate on its expertise in highly flexible prototype and lab systems for the production of synthetic fibers. Both companies decided to work closely together to offer customers continuation with strong services through the combination of each partner’s competences and the use of existing synergies in the market of synthetic fibers. The „godet“ division will hereafter be managed by both companies. In the course of this collaboration DIENES Apparatebau GmbH focuses on engineering and sales while Rauschert GmbH takes over mechanical manufacturing.

The cooperation between DIENES Apparatebau GmbH and the international production network of the Rauschert Group, consisting of more than 1.200 qualified employees in 14 countries, ensures economical and cost-efficient production of the highest quality for entire spinning plants as well as for standard and special high performance godets. This focus of DIENES Apparatebau GmbH on the development and engineering of prototype and lab lines for the production of synthetic fibers in combination with Rauschert’s professional competence in component production and project management guarantees customized solutions and contract processing of the highest quality.

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.

DIENES at Techtextil 2024

The current accelerated growing demand for technical textile demands a more proactive approach which includes implementing frameworks and technologies for recycling and a broad use of biobased materials as an alternative to conventional polymers. Research work in this field is characterised by a high degree of adaptation needs, hence demanding an efficient, systematic and, in part, self-optimising experimental working system, which must be intelligent in gathering data from the process and flexible in enabling its rearrangement.
