Chongqing Double Elephant Microfiber Material Co., Ltd., China will add four needlepunch lines to its operatin in Chongqing City, Chian. The lines, developed by Andritz to process islands-in-the-sea fibers for high-quality synthetic leather products, will start up in late 2021. They will produce 30 million meters a year of microfiber nonwoven materials.
The production lines are equipped with an ANDRITZ carding machine and the newly developed Profile crosslapper as well as the advanced-technology ProWid closed-loop system from ANDRITZ. The system can monitor the weight uniformity (CV%) of the entire product online and predict the weight distribution changes caused by the bonding process. In addition, the web weight can be reduced by controlled stretching, which solves the issue of fiber accumulation at the edges caused by traditional crosslapping methods. Both the weight and the uniformity of the product can be automatically adjusted via the closed-loop function as set on the ANDRITZ gauge.
Chongqing Double Elephant Microfiber Material Co., Ltd. is a wholly owned by Wuxi Double Elephant Microfiber Materials Co., Ltd. The company is active in the research, development and manufacture of microfiber materials, polyurethane synthetic leather and polyurethane resin.
