Posted February 17, 2021

NEUMUENSTER, Germany – Oerlikon Neumag has found the right approach for its customers with the efficient BCF S8 carpet yarn system in Monocolor and Tricolor versions.

Their solution is once again in the spotlight at this year's DOMOTEX asia / CHINAFLOOR from March 24-26 in Shanghai. Their audience of professionals can see the advantages for themselves at Oerlikon Neumag exhibition stand W3 D26.

Whether Monocolor or Tricolor, the performance data and technological details of the BCF S8 ver-sions have already made a huge impression at numerous exhibitions and road shows: With up to 700 filaments per thread, the BCF S8 significantly outperforms its sister, the BCF S+ (400 filaments), also guaranteeing finer titres of up to 2.5 dpf.

In addition to that, the process speed of the new Witras III-37 winder is higher than ever at 3,700 m/min – and provides increased throughput of up to 15 percent in comparison to previous technologies. The bottom line is a system efficiency of 99 percent, as well as possible energy savings of up to 5 percent per kilogram of yarn.

From a mélange to strict separation – the trend towards multiple colors for carpets goes on. The options for differentiating product for carpet yarn manufacturers are better than ever with the BCF S8 due to even more flexible color mixture versions. More than 200,000 different color shades derived from three colors are provided by the core component of the process, the new patent-pending CPC-T (Color Pop Compacting unit).
