At booth 1H20 at Anex-Since in Shanghai, China, visitors can see for themselves the systems constructor’s extensive product range.

Oerlikon Nonwoven meanwhile has a broad range of spunbond technology products and services. The process for manufacturing geotextiles from polyester or polypropylene has been optimized; it is characterized by the superb production quality achievable and the high production capacities and yields for manufacturing innovative, future-oriented nonwoven products.

For the manufacture of hygiene and medical nonwovens, Oerlikon Nonwoven offers its new QSR (Quality Sized Right) systems. The advantage for nonwovens manufacturers: highly-competitive solutions, which can be combined with innovative features.

Meltblown nonwovens

 New, unique and highly-sophisticated filter media and numerous other high-end nonwoven applications can be easily, flexibly and efficiently manufactured thanks to Oerlikon Nonwoven’s optimized meltblown technology.

Whether as a stand-alone system with one or several positions, as ‘plug & produce’ installations for already existing systems or in conjunction with other technologies: the Oerlikon Nonwoven meltblown process already enables the cost-efficient manufacture of meltblown nonwovens with high quality requirements.

Airlaid technology

Pulp or cellulose fibers as raw material for manufacturing nonwovens are currently virtually unrivaled with regards to sustainability and environmental compatibility. The Oerlikon Nonwoven airlaid process offers a solution for processing this raw material into high-end products for a wide range of applications.

The patented Oerlikon Nonwoven formation process permits the homogeneous mixing of the most diverse raw materials, while simultaneously guaranteeing superb evenness and homogeneous fiber laying, even for nonwovens with low running meter weights.

Technology for wet wipes

Also being showcased at the trade fair stand is Oerlikon Nonwoven’s P&G-patented Phantom technology for hygiene products and wipes. This technology is the alternative for manufacturing wet wipes from pulp and polymer fibers, for example. As a result of dispensing with hydroen-tanglement with subsequent drying – the manufacturing process itself helps make this material more sustainable overall. Targeted process management allows the optimal setting of the relevant product parameters such as softness, tenacity, dirt absorption and liquid absorption.
