One highlight at INDEX will be the new member of the ANDRITZ Nonwoven division: ANDRITZ Laroche — a company that has been a very important partner for ANDRITZ in the field of fiber preparation for drylaid nonwovens for over 10 years. ANDRITZ Laroche is a leading supplier of fiber processing technologies such as opening, blending and dosing, airlay web forming, textile waste recycling, and decortication of bast fibers.
One focus of this product range is complete recycling lines for post-consumer and industrial textile waste to produce fibers for re-spinning and/or nonwoven end-uses. Customer awareness and regulations are pushing clothing brands to recycle their textile waste in their own products. Recycled fibers can also be used in the nonwovens industry for various applications, such as automotive, insulation, mattresses, and furniture felts.
Trends, Innovations and highlights
Sustainability is a serious responsibility for the entire industry and will continue to be so for the years and decades to come. ANDRITZ’s “We Care” sustainability program combines all ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) initiatives, goals and achievements under one roof. “We Care” takes a multi-dimensional, comprehensive, and practically oriented approach towards sustainability. For each of the focus topics, ANDRITZ has set itself ambitious goals aimed at making the business activities of ANDRITZ and its stakeholders more sustainable.
多年以来,ANDRITZ提出不同nonwoven processes, like spunlace, Wetlace and Wetlace CP, with one goal in mind: reduction and elimination of plastic components while maintaining the high quality of the desired product properties. The latest development in this field is the ANDRITZ neXline wetlace CP line. This is a fully engineered production line combining the benefits of wetlaid and drylaid technologies to produce a new generation of biodegradable wipes.
To serve customers even better and offer the best possible R&D and service, ANDRITZ has invested in and upgraded its technical center in Montbonnot, France, to a Wetlace CP line. It is the first nonwovens test center for wipes worldwide with integrated pulp formation. Customers can conduct trials and test all options for wipes together with our experts.
In response to the demand to save raw materials, ANDRITZ will be presenting its neXline spunlace for lightweight fabrics. Decreasing weight per square meter while maintaining high MD and CD tensile strength is the main challenge. ANDRITZ provides the well-known TT card web forming and the high-performance Jetlace hydroentanglement units, which can more than fulfill these demands. The spunlace roll goods can achieve weights of 25 gsm and even less for ultralight spunlace fabrics, and web uniformity is excellent.
此外，安德里兹还将引入其成人裤子转换线，该系列提供顶级组件和创新的技术过程。成人失禁产品的不断增长的市场已导致具有最高质量标准的最先进的过程，例如，在粘结强度和系统可靠性方面，超声波侧接缝解决方案的开发具有出色的成果。机器速度不再限制质量债券。结果，操作和尺寸变化更快，更容易。现代的成型系统，用于更高的SAP（超吸收聚合物）浓度和转弯和放置系统保证最大的过程稳定性，并将客户的成年裤子放在成人卫生市场的顶部。
指数的另一个亮点将是Spunlaid领域的最新技术发展。例如，被称为Spunjet的专利无编织工艺是连续细丝的在线水理，与标准的Spunbond织物相比，新一代具有无与伦比的散装和柔软度的新一代无织造。Spunjet为客户提供了现有和新的非织造应用程序中有史以来最佳的属性。
Process And Product Optimization
安德里兹（Andritz）还展示了全新的Prowin技术，用于配置重量校正，该技术用于优化流程，提供更快的投资回报率，并在针线急促段中节省原材料。该单元结合了著名的技术和普罗迪，可以更好地性能。通过团结这些流程，客户的网络更加均匀，可以减少原材料的输入。prowin最大程度地减少了瞬时加速度以及最大内部速度的水平。因此，同一机器可以以较小的机械应力运行速度更快。Prowin也可以改装为最近的Prodyn装置。
此外，安德里兹（Andritz）在汽车领域处于活动状态。最新一代的双丝线指针SDV2+2可产生出色的非织造面料的视觉方面，具有良好的表面均匀度。它还允许复合织物生产（乳胶免费机械合并），高度参与可持续性方法，从而越来越成为汽车行业的需求。该开发项目可在法国Elbeuf的Andritz Nonwoven设施的Advanced Peenate Punch技术中心提供，欢迎使用针刺的客户进行试验和开发新产品。
此外，借助Metris Remote Access服务（Metris RAS），Andritz使用高级解决方案为客户提供了从远处为其生产线的指导和远程支持。Metris RAS提供了一套用于音频，视频以及该领域工程师与后台专家之间的AR支持的通信的工具，以快速，平稳地识别和解决任何问题，误解较少，没有必要的，无需任何不必要的问题，没有必要其他电话。多亏了这个工具，安德里兹（Andritz）还是成功地协助客户在线维护和初创企业，尽管受到了锁定和旅行限制。
