For the production of a wide range of hygiene products, the international technology group Andritz AG, Graz/Austria, received an order to supply a neXline spunlace eXcelle line to the manufacturer of nonwovens Minet S.A, Ramnicu Valcéa/Romania, for processing different qualities from 25-70 g/m².
Start-up of this line, which will be the 1st of its kind in Romania, is expected during the 2nd quarter of 2022.
Andritz will deliver a complete line, from web forming to drying. The line will integrate a high-speed TT card, the Jetlace Essentiel hydroentanglement unit equipped with a neXecodry S1 system for energy saving, and a neXdry double-drum through-air dryer.
The production capacity will be 10,000 tons/year, while the operating speed will be up to 250 m/min and the maximum output at the carding outlet around 1,500 kg/h.
Just recently, Andritz completed the commissioning of a neXline needlepunch eXcelle line for Minet to produce automotive products made from a large variety of fibers. For this contract, Andritz delivered a complete line from fiber preparation to end-of-line, also integrating card, crosslapper, batt drafter, 2 needlelooms and a Zeta felt drafter with a working width of more than 6 m. The line is also equipped with the unique ProDyn web profiling system, operating as a closed-loop control system in order to ensure good evenness of the products.
