Almost all textile fibres need some type of post processing to be used in a final product, from clothing and home ware to technical and industrial textiles. RISE testbed for fibre development includes eqipment to develop prototypes adapted to the customer's needs.
Offer
- Rewinding: Rewinding can be carried out to produce yarn packages of desired characteristics. Properties like weight, form and density can be adjusted. The rewinder can also be used for application of spin finish on fibres.
- Texturing: A Stuffer Box is available for texturing of fibers, where continous tow or yarn is crimped mechanically. The crimp frequency and amplitude can be adjusted for different purposes.
- Cutting: In RISE fibre lab it is possible to cut continous fibres from tow or filament yarn to staple fibres, in the lengths of 30, 38, 50 or 60 mm.
For further development of prototypes, equipment for yarn spinning, knitting and nonwoven production is available.
