Andritz Nonwoven, part of international technology Group Andritz, will present its latest innovations in drylaid, wetlaid, spunbond, spunlace and needlepunch nonwovens this week at IDEA. The company offers integrated in-house solutions from forming to finishing across its nonwovens businesses.
In late 2015, Andritz introduced neXecodry, the next generation in spunlace dewatering and drying technology, which offers a dramatic reduction in energy usage and an increase in drying efficiency. The system can significantly reduce energy costs in new and existing spunlace lines.
Andritz technology has also allowed its customers to make lighter spunlace fabrics with perfect uniformity. Andritz Perfojet's developments in the drylaid and hydroentanglement process has allowed weights as low as 20 gsm.
Also on display will be a new five-roll calender concep, a milestone regarding increasing capacity, process stability and product quality. Andritz Küsters’ neXcal quadriga is equipped with the proven Hot S-Roll and four embossing rolls with fully automated production change.
Andritz offers cost-efficient, flexible, reliable and robust turnkey needlepunch lines from opening and blending as far as the winder. The neXline needlepunch range covers technologies for a wide spectrum of nonwoven end-uses, such as geotextiles, automotive, filtration, roofing felts, and coating substrates.
The neXline needlepunch eXcelle range provides individual solutions to meet producers’ requirements in terms of fabric characteristics, such as weight evenness, tensile strength and homogeneity at high production capacity, which can amount to between 4500-9000 tons per year. Andritz Asselin-Thibeau supports its customers with technical line configuration and provides associated services to optimize their lines’ performance.

After three years in development, Andritz Nonwoven is representing the next generation in spunlace dewatering and drying technology in commercial operation: neXecodry, nonwoven drying and dewatering technology. The results have been dramatic in terms of energy savings and drying efficiency.
The neXecodry drying and dewatering system was developed by Andritz Nonwoven to significantly reduce energy costs in both new and existing nonwovens spunlace production lines.
The development of neXecodry technology followed Andritz Nonwoven’s path of the company’s proven “innovation process” for bringing new ideas to market, according to Frederic Noelle, research & development manager for Andritz’s nonwovens business.
“We use a systematic approach to move from idea stage to commercial-scale production,” says Noelle. “This ensures that our technologies are ‘proven’ before ever finding their way into a customer’s plant. We are optimizing the equipment and processes that are already in place in the spunlace production line. The risk is virtually zero, and the opportunity for savings is large.” - See more at: http://www.nonwovens-industry.com/contents/view_online-exclusives/2015-12-03/andritz-develops-energy-saving-spunlace-technology/#sthash.0xk4YpKY.dpuf
