At ITMA in Milan, BRÜCKNER, a top supplier of specially designed equipment and production lines, exhibits cutting-edge highlights for textile coating and finishing.

The new electric/hydrogen-powered heating systems, clever software solutions for formula optimisation, systems for heat-recovery and exhaust air purification, creative chemical application systems, and newly developed machine concepts are just a few of the many new features that BRÜCKNER will demonstrate with its next-generation POWER-FRAME SFP-4.

Systems for heating without CO2

The inventive heating systems of the BRÜCKNER dryer are without a doubt its most significant invention. New ways to combine multiple heating media like gas, steam, oil, or electricity have been developed as a result of the energy crisis and ongoing focus on energy-efficient solutions. Additionally, BRÜCKNER provides burners that will eventually be able to run on hydrogen. The textile finisher has the greatest amount of flexibility when selecting the energy carrier thanks to these combination possibilities. Another innovative invention is the use of heat pumps by BRÜCKNER and a partner to heat industrial ovens only with electricity. These new heating technologies have definite benefits both now and in the future, including: Green power and/or hydrogen lessen reliance on fossil fuels and make a significant contribution to lowering CO2 emissions.

Smart Manufacturing Systems

Additional highlights include digital goods and services. New lines can be outfitted with a variety of intelligent assistance systems upon request, helping the machine operator select the best machine setting for each process. The new simulation tool ExperTex, which integrates the The intended production process of drying or heat-setting is simulated on the computer with the aid of artificial intelligence. Then, several scenarios can be contrasted with one another in terms of production costs, energy usage, throughput times, and CO2 emissions. This cutting-edge system provides customers with significant additional value because it enables precise order pre-calculation, opens up opportunities for productivity increases or energy savings, and enables “right-first-time production” using previously optimised formulas. Thus, with the touch of a button, professional expertise and years of experience in textile finishing are at your disposal. Customers will soon have access to this feature and a lot more through the new myBrückner customer interface. There will be a service system, access to digital services, and all crucial machine information packed together and available at any time. systems for heat recovery and exhaust air purification

A new kind of intelligent control is present in the ECO-HEAT heat-recovery and ECO-AIR exhaust air purification systems of the latest generation. To achieve the greatest energy savings and address current exhaust air issues, both types of lines can easily be retrofitted at any time to older lines from various manufacturers. To more accurately evaluate utilisation rate and efficiency, all exhaust air treatment systems are capable of being tested beforehand at customers’ locations using laboratory techniques.

Innovative methods for applying chemicals

Customers can, of course, learn more about a variety of additional ways to conserve basic resources like electricity, water, chemicals, and waste water at the BRÜCKNER booth. Consider the minimum application unit in this case. The coating units ECO-COAT, a new kind of padder with minimal preparation requirements or residual liquor, and OPTI-COAT 2in1, which combines the use of floating knives and knife-over-cylinder application in one system, should be emphasised. For paste and foam coatings, good results can be obtained by using a high-precision coating cylinder and a coating knife that has been precisely ground. Additionally, the unit’s unique form makes it as accessible as possible for cleaning and maintenance tasks.

modern finishing equipment

Another highlight is a brand-new high-performance relaxing dryer called POWER-DRY that uses a high-temperature heat pump to heat water without the use of CO2. Many machine models will also be used to demonstrate the breadth of BRÜCKNER’s product line and to exhibit technology in a realistic and “tangible” fashion. be displayed.

Compared to other providers, BRÜCKNER’s lines have a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO). This statement is supported by the technical guidance of knowledgeable professionals and applies to all machines that have been demonstrated in the fields of finishing for carpets, nonwovens and denim, migration- and crease-free continuous dyeing, as well as in the diverse field of technical textiles.

updating and modernising current lines

The technology team at BRÜCKNER and the after-sales team provide several opportunities for modernization and technological advancement on site with regard to sustainability and resource conservation. It is not always essential to invest in a new production line; frequently, existing equipment can have their potential swiftly and effectively realised through adjustments and technological advice. Significant productivity and energy efficiency gains can be done without more prolonged downtimes.

Take inspiration from these highlights! The BRÜCKNER team is forward to speak with you in person and discuss upcoming advancements at booth A101 in hall 18 – the trip is worthwhile!
