Yarn manufacturers globally are seeing impressive gains with Trutzschler’s next-generation TC 30i carding machine, launched in January 2024. Designed for both cotton and man-made fibers, it delivers higher productivity and superior quality with self-optimizing functions that reduce operator intervention.
In Indonesia, Budi Texindo Prakarsa, a leading spinning mill with 80,000 spindles, reported a 30 per cent productivity increase in ring-combed cotton yarn (Ne 20 to Ne 30) while maintaining the same IPI quality level. Energy and air consumption per kilogram also dropped.
Turkiye’s Mem Tekstil, one of the largest integrated textile manufacturers, tested the TC 30i on Ne 20 cotton soft waste yarn using open-end spinning. Productivity jumped from 70 kg/h to 160 kg/h with equal or better quality, reinforcing the benefits of modernization.
Another Turkish mill, Safteks, producing 2,100 tons of cotton yarn monthly, upgraded to the TC 30i for its OE spinning process. This change increased daily production from 70 tons to 85 tons a 20 per cent boost without compromising quality.
In the man-made fiber sector, Indonesia’s PT Dhanar Mas Concern tested the TC 30Si for polyester and viscose vortex spinning. Output reached 125 kg/h, marking a 40 per cent productivity increase compared to its previous benchmark.
The TC 30i’s success stems from innovations like the T-GO automated gap optimizer, an expanded active flats system, and a precise mote knife that minimizes waste. With installations expanding globally, Trutzschler’s TC 30i is setting new industry standards in efficiency and quality.
