Kurskhimvolokno, a major Russian high-performance nylon yarn supplier has recently increased its capacity by more than 30 percent with the help of Swiss textile machine builder Trützschler, which has supplied more new yarn extrusion technology to the company.
As part of its strategic modernisation programme, the Russian supplier will use Trützschler’s symTTec extrusion technology to produce high-tenacity nylon yarns for a number of technical textile applications.
This repeat order of a larger number of Trützschler’s symTTec spinning positions confirms the long-term and successful cooperation between the two companies.
The industrial and technical yarns of the new extrusion lines fulfil the requirements of various high demanding end applications such as tire cord.
The yarn’s tenacity can reach 88-90 cN/tex, the production runs smoothly with very high efficiency.
Kurskhimvolokno’s high quality of products enables them to strengthen its market share and acquire new customers both within Russia and other countries.
