Solutions for POY manufacturing - Oerlikon Barmag - Oerlikon Textile

There are numerous possibilities for sustainably lowering the
consumption of valuable resources. Firstly, there are energyoptimized
components, for example Oerlikon Barmag’s SP8x
spinning beam, which consumes more than 40% less energy
than other more common designs. In a POY spinning system
with 144 positions, this generated an annual saving of
approx. U$ 90,000.
Reducing the consumption of controlled-processed air is
an important objective of the EvoQuench. Radial quenching
consumes 60-80% less air than cross-flow quenching –
and can be used for manufacturing microfilaments and
commodity yarns of up to 3 dpf.
Multi-filament spinning saves energy
However, the utilization of efficient components is only one
step on the path to creating smart production processes.
Restricting the examination to the spinning system alone
does not take important factors into account. Within this
context, the multi-filament capability should definitely be
considered an energy-saving factor. Spinning 20-end POY
using a spinning beam with DIO spinnerets and a quenching
unit on 2 take-up positions is therefore considerably more
efficient than two 10-end spinning positions.
A decisive associated factor that influences the overall
energy consumption is the air-conditioning system. Drives,
heating systems, components that come into contact with
the melt as well as the filaments radiate heat. If this heat
radiation is reduced by means of excellent insulation, the
air-conditioning system can be small, hence itself using less
energy.
Oerlikon Barmag – with its focus on innovation and
technological leadership – provides a variety of machines,
components and solutions that stand out through their
excellent resource efficiency and thus easily fulfill the
requirements defined by the e-save label.
