Allma Volkmann – Competence in twisting
Allma and Volkmann will be presenting innovative products and solutions for the sectors of staple fibre yarns, carpet yarns, tyre yarn, technical and glass filament yarns.
Setting benchmarks – CompactTwister with E³ technology
In the CompactTwister, Allma and Volkmann present high-performance twisting machine for staple fibre yarns with E3 technology, which impresses with its triple added value through the factors of energy, economics and ergonomics. It is possible to achieve savings in energy of up to 40% thanks to the eco drive concept and the eco spindle technology with adjusted spindle combinations. Productivity of the CompactTwister is 30% higher thanks to faster delivery speeds of up to 120 m/min. The CompactTwister covers all number ranges and, due to high yarn and bobbin quality, provides optimum conditions for the utmost in added value, both today and tomorrow.
CableCorder CC4 – Twist & Save with E³ technology
With its pioneering technology, the CableCorder CC4 cabling twister provides energy savings of up to 50% in the tyre cord cabling process. As energy costs constitute by far the greatest block of expenses in the overall cabling process, these savings represent a revolutionary cut in production costs for producers of tyre cord. Cutting energy consumption also reduces the heat load in the production facilities, which in turn leads to a reduction in the costs for air conditioning.
Embroidery – Textile creations for the future
Saurer Embroidery is the global market leader for embroidery production systems. It represents the accumulated experience of many generations combined with today’s knowledge and skills to benefit the future of textile production. Saurer brand embodies textile manufacturing tradition combined with state-of-the-art technology to deliver a symbiosis of knowledge and skills, quality and reliability.
Epoca 6 pro – the successful embroidery machine
Epoca 6pro opens new dimensions with regard to adjustability and performance. A machine which is custom tailored for an era where orders are getting smaller and smaller but the demands and requirements are growing continuously. In addition, the orders need to be produced with fewer personnel and in a considerably shorter time. With the Epoca 6 pro, we have a product which fulfils those requirements.
SoutacheHead – the new Saurer soutache system with application heads
You can embroider one-of-a-kind patterns using the innovative soutache head and keep the areas being embroidered conveniently in view while maintaining full flexibility. The motor-driven application heads mean that you can achieve production speeds of up to 500 rpm It is easy for users to position and gain access to the heads, with the results that downtimes during production and retooling are drastically reduced. The multifunctional soutache wheel allows the most diverse materials to be pro-cessed: from the finest soutache cord, a huge variety of braid widths, right through to technical yarns.
EmStudio – embroidery software – new with iSed
EmStudio integrates each stage, from drawing, punching and visualisation to optimising production and analysing operational data and archiving designs on one platform. You will find optimising pro-duction and quality simple and efficient with the new iSed – the intelligent Saurer editor. iSed has been reprogrammed from start to finish and now offers every modern option for operation, right through to multitouch. iSed is especially easy and effective to operate, achieving significant im-provements in efficiency when editing.

Saurer Jintan
Saurer Pre-Spinning business unit Saurer Jintan will be presenting for the first time the new JSC326 carding machine with up to 50% productivity increase.
Carding area has been increased with 60% comparing to the traditional machine thanks to a wider and raised cylinder. This results in an increase of the output by 50% under the same carding conditions. A new type of length and short auto-levelling (auto-adapting adjusting) will ensure constant sliver output with easy weight adjustment. The independent frequency converting transmission has now a removable cover plate, which allows easy speed setting and gives technological flexibility. Consequent feeding; carding length can be adapted to different fibre lengths and causes less damage to fibre.
