The order involves eight complete staple fibre lines with 320 spinning positions for the production of synthetic staple fibres.#
Oerlikon said that it will not only supply the technology but will also take over the engineering of the lines and the delivery is scheduled for 2022.
According to the company, with a total capacity of 1,800 t/d, the project is Oerlikon Neumag's largest staple fibre plant order to date. The eight two-step lines will produce cotton-type staple fibres in a titer range of 1.0 - 1.4 denier.
With this investment, the Xinfengming Group is expanding its product portfolio. As one of the world's leading FDY and POY polyester filament yarn producers, the Chinese company has relied on Oerlikon Barmag technologies for decades and now also on those of Oerlikon Neumag.
