RIETER SPINNING NEWS


RIETER sold more than onethousandfivehundred C70 cards until today with further orders in progress. This constitutes a huge success for the WINTERTHUR SWISS based icon company.  

The secret lies in superior technological breakthrough of C70 card.

The C70 is suitable for all applications, from coarse - to fine count yarns, from natural - to man- made fibers.

The C70 is one of the most desired textile carding machine sought amongst many used textile machines sold in India - and other countries in the region.


Reasons for advanced technology claims

- large active carding area
- precise narrow carding gap between carding elements
- integrated grinding of card wires
- top of the range card clothing wires
- low operating costs primarily due to energy savings

C70 are used with success also on long staple cotton such as Peru Pima, US Pima or Egyptian Giza varieties.

Nep reduction

Nep reduction on C70 has been reduced by up to 80 % ( 100 % Cotton, OE spun, Ne12 ) compared with other cards producing 200 kg/h ( C70 production 275 kg/h ).

Yarn quality parameters

OE yarn, Ne 36 100 % Viscose ,  card output 150 kg/h


CVm % :14.8
Thin places : 7.1
Thick places:18.3
Neps :2.8



These parameters are impressive in all accounts.  While increasing outputs in trials, parameters
actually improved. This is contrary to what old spinning technology experience taught us.

C70 man made fiber cards show additional value added features which incorporate significant
changes in technological advancements. Added carding segments for example in pre - and post
carding zones account for better fiber guidance during the carding process. So does chromium steel fitted essential carding elements such as licker-in, cylinder, flats and doffer. Mote knives are
not being employed due to absence of solid trash particles as found in raw materials such as cotton fibers.

In retrospect we find that C70 cards produce at lowest cost of production whilst achieving highest quality parameters, an ideal combination.
