Schlafhorst is fitting out a new Austrian textile plant with a tailor-made and interlinked technology solution, which will deliver high efficiency from the roving frame to yarn winding.
Austrian Linz Textil GmbH is setting up an ultra-modern cotton-spinning mill in Landeck, which will produce very fine cotton yarns.
The fully automated technology includes 17 Zinser 351 2Impact FX compact spinning machines with around 26,000 spindles.
The roving is transferred from the Zinser 670 roving frame to the compact spinning machines via the Zinser FixFlow roving bobbin transport system with CimTrack 1.
A fully automated link with the most up-to-date material flow system connects the compact spinning machines with the latest generation of Autoconer winding machines.
These are equipped with the PreciFX digital displacement technology. The Plant Control System from Schlafhorst provides a constant overview of all production and quality data of the highly integrated yarn production process.
The cotton spinning mill is expected to begin commercial production in mid-2015.
