Oerlikon Saurer with its Saurer, Allma and Volkmann product lines, is a business unit in the textile division of the global technology group, OC Oerlikon. Volkmann is a leader in innovative technology for the carpeting sector with the CarpetTwister and the CarpetCabler.

New E³ technology

Under the framework of the new E³ technology, (Energy, Economics and Ergonomics) Volkmann has now developed the energy-saving spindle family for its carpet machines.

Maximum quality with optimum commercial viability is the motto of the successful CarpetTwister / CarpetCabler generation. Spindle and pot package variants together with drive and bearings technology are said to allow extremely high energy savings up to 40 %. Delivery speeds of up to 120 m/min for up-twisting can increase production by up to 30%, according to the manufacturer.

Thanks to creels with pneumatic support, threading systems, new pneumatic centrally adjustable creel yarn brakes, and ball thread brakes, operating times can also be reduced by up to 10%.

Future oriented customers

The Saurer E³ philosophy puts customers and their market success at the forefront, the company reports. Only products that fulfil all the criteria in respect of Energy, Economics and Ergonomics are awarded the E³ label.

The Volkmann trade fair team will be available to welcome visitors and provide them with more information about all the advantages of E³ technology and the company’s product and service offers.
