The company will present its Oerlikon Barmag, Oerlikon Neumag, and Oerlikon Nonwoven product lines at the Illies Engineering Vietnam Co., Ltd. stand (Hall A, Stand 1J01). Experts from Barmag will demonstrate sustainable machine and system solutions designed for the textile industry.
Comprehensive Solutions from a Single Source
Trade visitors will have the chance to explore Barmag’s complete solutions, ranging from polycondensation systems to spinning, texturing, and digital solutions. By offering all process steps from a single source, Barmag ensures a harmonized technology that guarantees the production of high-quality yarn.
Focusing on Sustainability
Barmag, in collaboration with Oerlikon Barmag Huitong Engineering (OBHE) and BB Engineering (BBE), will present sustainable solutions involving mechanical and chemical recycling for bottles and textiles, biopolymers, and circular economy practices. For over 20 years, the company’s e-save sustainability label has set industry standards for environmentally friendly solutions.
Recycling: The Path to a Sustainable Future
OBHE’s Homogenizer enables the thermomechanical recycling of polyester waste such as bottle flakes, post-industrial waste, and film waste into high-quality PET products. The homogenizer ensures consistent polymerization and produces a homogeneous melt, supporting both direct spinning processes and the production of PET chips.
VarioFil® R+ by BBE offers a compact spinning system that recycles PET bottle granulate and waste directly into POY. Its sustainable design allows flexibility in production, making it suitable for small batch sizes or specialized products.
VacuFil PET Recycling System by BBE is a state-of-the-art solution for high-quality processing of textile waste. Its patented Visco+ polycondensation system efficiently removes impurities and regulates intrinsic viscosity (IV), ensuring rPET melt quality comparable to virgin material. The system is modular and can be tailored to customer requirements.
DTY Yarns: Maximum Flexibility and Quality
Oerlikon Barmag offers diverse DTY machine configurations for producing high-quality textured yarns from polymers like polyester, polyamide, polypropylene, PLA, and PTT. These modular machines, available in manual or automatic versions, optimize production costs and ensure superior quality for various applications, including home textiles, apparel, and automotive products.
JeTex® Air Texturizing: Expanding Product Portfolios
JeTex® by BBE is an air texturizing system that complements Oerlikon Barmag’s DTY systems, enabling the production of high-quality ATY from POY and FDY. The system’s core is a specially developed texturing box that guarantees gentle yarn treatment and efficient production.
JeTex® is available both as a complete system and a retrofit for existing DTY setups, allowing customers to expand their product range quickly and cost-effectively.
Bi-Shrinkage Yarns: From Niche to Standard
Bi-shrinkage yarns (BSY/ITY) have evolved from niche products to standard offerings in knitting, weaving, and textile production. Oerlikon Barmag provides one- and two-stage solutions for producing these specialty yarns, ensuring energy savings, production speed, process flexibility, and superior quality.
EvoSteam: Sustainable Staple Fiber Production
EvoSteam by Oerlikon Neumag represents a breakthrough in staple fiber production, offering significant reductions in energy, water, and raw material usage. This innovation not only lowers operating costs but also minimizes the CO2 footprint, all while ensuring excellent fiber quality for downstream processes.
