HORGEN, Switzerland – SSM Schärer Schweiter Mettler AG, inventor of the electronic yarn traverse system, announced its participation in the forthcoming ShanghaiTex on the booth of their agent, Union Trading, as well as on the booth of Rieter Components.

 

After the successful introduction of the XENO-platform in Asia in 2016, SSM has put the focus on the X-Series this year. With the latest application for cone-to-muff and muff-to-cone winding, SSM offers a highly flexible and economical system.

 

To maintain a high-residual elasticity of elastic Polyamide (PA) and Polyester (PES) draw textured yarns (DTY) after dyeing, the muff dyeing process with integrated SSM leading yarn winding technology is the best solution. The new SSM PWX-CTM enables the preparation of low-density muffs, while maintaining the highest possible elasticity of the yarn throughout the dyeing process.

 

For the highest flexible and productive rewinding, the SSM PWX-MTC offers the proper solution; regardless whether muffs, hanks, dye packages on dye tubes or coreless dye packages are to be rewound.

 

Besides the displayed applications, SSM provides a wide range of renowned textile machines. A detailed overview about SSM machinery and supported applications of the textile process chain can be found under Winding Solutions at www.ssm.ch.

 

SSM is a subsidiary of Rieter Group.
