Solutions for IDY production - Oerlikon Barmag - Oerlikon Textile

Spinning head series
The quality of the thread is determined during spinning. The spinning components used provide your yarn
with its ultimate qualities. Therefore, they are particularly close to the hearts of our engineers.
The manifold in an Oerlikon Barmag spinning line is speciallyoptimized
in terms of melt residence time, drop in viscosity
and shear rate. It is characterized by:
- Flow-favorable melt distribution for excellent yarn uniformity
along the spinning line;
- High surface quality of the pipes ensures favorable melt
flow behavior for superior quality – from the very first day
of production;
- Absolute dead spot-free design is a precondition for low
break levels and high yields;
- The overall distribution system is virtually maintenancefree.
Oerlikon Barmag’s spinning head series covers the processes
for textile and industrial yarns as well as home textiles. For all
applications, the spinning head vapor heating ensures excellent
temperature uniformity.

e-save with SP8x
The Oerlikon Barmag SP8x spinning head concept unites
the advantages of high-end melt quality. The design of the
spinning head has considerably reduced the heat-radiating
surface and simultaneously significantly improved the insulation.
This has resulted in a more than 40% reduction in the
heat-radiation in comparison to the SP4x system.
The SP8x spinning head ensures economic spinning processes
with high product quality through its very even melt
guidance system with optimized residence time. Furthermore,
the shroud – which can be specifically adapted to the
respective product on request – ensures an extremely high
level of flexibility.
Needless to say, the well-known self-sealing Oerlikon Barmag
spin packs can also be used for this system. The rheologically-optimized
melt distribution and uniform heating ensure
that the excellent melt quality in the spinning head is also
continued within the spin pack.
