9 Web forming: Card feeders Batt forming - perfect evenness in feeding Multiple and comprehensive solutions are available for every kind of drylaid web forming process within the axcess range. ANDRITZ Nonwoven offers different types of card feeders to match the required production capacity while feeding the card evenly. Card feeders ANDRITZ has developed different types of card feeders that supply the appropriate quantity of fibers to the card. The TCF Thibeau Chute Feed is designed for fibers up to 90 mm, and the TCF-X Thibeau Chute Feed for fibers over 80 mm and up to 120 mm. Before arriving at the card, the fibers coming from opening and blending pass through the Thibeau Metering Silo (TMS), which guarantees a constant supply and final opening. Then they are transferred pneumatically to the TCF or TCF-X, which feeds the appropriate quantity of fibers to the card. CFX characteristics Throughput of over 350 kg/h/m Fibers up to 150 mm Suitable for high-density fi bers TCF and TCF-X* characteristics Throughput of over 350 kg/h/m Fibers up to 120 mm Improved weight evenness, in particular for cross direction Compatible with intimate blending and well-opened fi bers For a coarse density (> 6 dtex) and long fibers (> 60 mm), especially natural fibers, and for very high production capacities, the Thibeau Continuous Flux hopper feeder (CFX) is the right choice. Card infeed regulators In order to achieve highest accuracy, ANDRITZ offers two types of card in-feed auto-levelers, either with weight measurement (WCR) or with X-ray measurement (Servo-X*). CFX volumetric hopper Servo-X characteristics Density measurement No wear parts, no maintenance 10 measurements per second Customers preferred solution TCF-X: Self-regulating fiber distribution system in cross direction WCR characteristics Weighing system No reset needed for a wide range of fi ber densities 10 measurements per second Card auto-levelers main benefits for users Long-term weight evenness ± 1% Accurate and reliable T Servo-X auto-leveler WCR auto-leveler T * Made in Europe 09

Jetlace Avantage hydroentanglement unit Jetlace Avantage: Industrial line 20

21 Web bonding: Hydroentanglement nexjet injectors Injectors are the heart of the spunlace process. Thanks to its perfect know-how in fluid mechanics and robust manufacturing, ANDRITZ Nonwoven installs state-ofthe-art injectors in its hydroentanglement units. ANDRITZ technology and equipment always provide optimum quality at very low energy consumption. Process engineers use the latest computer-based fluid mechanics modeling tools to optimize the injector efficiency. In addition, the process water undergoes final filtration by the EXH cartridge inside the injector body just before the water enters the needle strip. Perfectly homogeneous distribution of water Lower operating costs Final filtration of process water just before the strip (filter inside the injector) Quick access to the strip and the filtration cartridge 21

22 Web bonding: Hydroentanglement Efficient water recirculation and filtration Another critical point in the spunlace process is the water treatment stage. Due to the large amount of water required, it is essential to recycle and recirculate it. A high-quality filtration system is needed. The recycling ratio can be up to 99% with the most advanced filtration systems. ANDRITZ Nonwoven has developed the sub-systems to treat and filter suspended solids and spin-finish water. One priority is to optimize the filtration process for synthetic and/or natural fibers. The filtration process is optimized by removing all the particles, from the largest down to the finest, when the process water passes through the main filtration systems: Flotation cell (FL) Band filters (BD) Sand filters (FSS) Bag filters (FP) Press filter (PF) etc. Highest fabric quality Full process guarantee Reduced water consumption Minimal wastewater discharge Low chemicals consumption Increased line efficiency Reduced maintenance downtime Jetlace FL 92% recycled FP FSS FSS FL 99% recycled PF 22 Optimization of the water filtration system

23 Patterning solutions Customize your spunlace fabrics The market trend demands product diversification. ANDRITZ Nonwoven has developed a series of patterning and aperture sleeves or thermo-embossing calenders to create unique-design, surface haptics and functions in spunlace fabrics. neximaging sleeves The latest patterning sleeves use neximaging technology, which allows full customization of spunlace fabrics with reproduction of virtually any logo or pattern in highquality detail. Logo and pattern definition are enhanced, while optimum production speeds are maintained. Logos can be designed to customer requirements, and neximaging also allows perfect creation of apertures in the web. PL sleeves This technology produces embossed fabrics with simple geometric patterns, mainly dots or squares. ANDRITZ offers a wide range of existing patterns. It is a must-have for the production of baby wipes. Thermo-embossing calenders The ANDRITZ product portfolio in patterning solutions is rounded off by our wide range of thermo-embossing calenders. Whenever very precise and permanent embossing is required, especially when using fusible fibers, calender embossing is the preferred process for a multitude of applications. ANDRITZ deflection-controlled calender systems are state-of-theart in thermo-embossing and can be built as a two-roll calender with vertical roll arrangement or, for ultimate production flexibility, as a twin calender. Technical support The ANDRITZ Perfojet technical center assists by testing patterns for customer approval before the customer invests in the final, industrial-scale version of the machine.
