OBHE homogenizer: A flexible system for thermomechanical recycling of polyester waste
OBHE’s homogenizer enables the thermomechanical recycling of polyester waste. The well-known and commercially available raw materials such as bottle flakes, post-industrial waste and film waste are processed into high-quality PET products. The OBHE Homogenizer ensures constant polymerization conditions with an optimized residence time spectrum. Hence, the desired increase in viscosity can be specifically influenced and an excellent and homogeneous melt quality can be produced. The production of high-quality and defined rPET products with further processing of the melt to POY and FDY in the direct spinning process or for the production of PET chips is thus guaranteed and has already been proven by installed systems on the market. The OBHE homogenizer provides the customer with a flexible system for thermomechanical recycling of polyester waste.
DTY yarns – maximum flexibility and uncompromising quality
Whether for home textiles, in the clothing industry or in the automotive sector – the possible applications for texturized yarns are virtually unlimited. Oerlikon Barmag offers a wide range of DTY machine configurations for the efficient and sustainable production of high-quality textured yarns from various polymers such as polyester, polyamide, polypropylene, PLA and PTT. Thanks to sophisticated components, comprehensive know-how and tried and tested technology, the modular DTY machines – whether manual or automatic – produce texturized yarns that are ideal for downstream processes and ensure optimum OPEX costs.
The visitors will also be able to discover the solutions such as the JeTex® Air texturing system, Bi-shrinkage yarns and EvoSteam at SaigonTex.
