Premiere for Retech at Techtextil Frankfurt

Techtextil 2015 has shown itself to be the undisputed centre of innovation in the field of high-tech fabrics, smart textiles and processing technologies. RETECH AG attended this show for first time and as a textile machine component manufacturer in the field of thermal and mechanical processing of synthetic filaments the company was able to show its products to international customers, where they were met with much interest.

A lot of visitors were delighted by the heated godet rolls for the many sided applications in spinning. They are suitable for highest temperature and speed ranges up to 7000 m / min, with energy saving motors and temperature efficient heating or active cooling concepts, including control units.Also in the centre of interest were the air bearing separator rolls (ABSR), in extended range of dimensions, for all highest demands in terms of high speed and long service life, even in the case of hard usage for high end technical yarns.

Another highlight was the Win-OLT yarn tension sensor for the complete monitoring of DTY and or spinning machines for the improvement of quality in yarn production by means of on line monitoring. The performance range includes the complete system together with the necessary software, service and spare parts, as well as single yarn tension sensors.

The development of innovative, efficient and high quality draw machines built to the customers specification was discussed with several visitors and the modification, conversion and upgrading have also been vital topics. Integration of new technologies becomes essential in order to achieve sustainability in many respects including environmental protection, energy usage in combination with maintenance cost reduction and user-friendly operation.

For Retech it was the right decision to be at Techtextil Frankfurt. During the show, they could meet and discuss with many existing customers and also very important, new, potential customers showed interest in their products. Retech thanks everybody that visited the booth and is looking forward to future partnerships and collaborations.

RETECH showcases high-precision godets for high-performance fiber processing at Techtextil 2026

RETECH designs and manufactures godets and draw frames for heated, ambient and cooled processes, enabling precise heat treatment and consistently high yarn quality for a wide range of polymers and applications, with process temperatures of up to 400 °C for high-performance fibers. The company’s key competence lies in exact and stable temperature and speed control, individually adapted to the specific material and process requirements.

50 years of Swiss precision - Retech highlights latest technology to produce high-quality synthetic fibers

High-quality synthetic fiber production requires uncompromising precision and process stability. Godet rolls play a key role in ensuring exact temperature control and maximum reliability. As a Swiss pioneer in thermal treatment for filament fibers, Retech has been setting benchmarks for five decades – with technologies that make production processes smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable.

Heberlein reinforces its commitment to the Chinese market

Heberlein, globally recognised as a leading provider of air interlacing and air texturing jets for synthetic filament yarns, is consolidating its success in the Chinese market with its APh- and APe-series for DTY applications. Particularly in the field of Air Covering, Heberlein technologies combine excellent quality with significant savings in compressed-air consumption. A new service hub in Shengze City underlines the company’s long-term commitment in the Chinese market.

Driving circularity with Uster Recycled Fiber Matrix

The textile industry’s commitment to circularity continues to accelerate, and mechanical recycling is viewed as a targeted approach to cutting textile waste and its environmental impact. At the forefront of this drive, Uster has developed the Recycled Fiber Matrix, a two-dimensional assessment of mechanically recycled fibers to guide optimum processing and end-uses.

Greater efficiency for tomorrow’s textile industry

From September 24 to 27, 2026, Barmag, together with BB Engineering (BBE), will present innovative solutions for the efficient and sustainable production of synthetic yarns at the Egy Stitch & Tex Expo in Cairo, Egypt. Under the motto “A New Era. Powered by Innovation.,” experts from Barmag and BBE will present technologies spanning the entire textile value chain — from melt to yarn — at the ATAG Ltd. booth (Hall 1, Booth C1).
