• News from the inventors of compacting
• The most economical rotor direct process
• Production of innovative yarns using the air-jet spinning process
• ESSENTIAL: New modules of the Rieter Digital Spinning Suite
• After Sales: Solutions for optimizing the installed basis
• Innovations from Bräcker, Graf, Novibra, SSM and Suessen

At ITMA 2019, Rieter showcases innovations for all four spinning processes that are
established on the market. These innovations are designed to reduce raw material,
energy and labor costs, while also increasing productivity during production of the
yarn quality required in each case. Solutions to increase the flexibility of the spinning
mill are also presented. In addition, Rieter presents two solutions for the production
of innovative yarns.

Fiber preparation
The blowroom VARIOline with the new UNIClean B 15 brings significant
improvements in terms of energy consumption and the cleaning result for all spinning
processes. The same applies to the new high-performance card C 80, which offers
an unrivaled level of productivity.
Ring and compact-spinning process
To increase the cost effectiveness of the ring spinning and compact spinning
process, Rieter reveals the new comber E 90, the new roving frame F 40, the piecing
robot ROBOspin and three different compacting units that can easily be installed on
and removed from a ring spinning machine: COMPACTdrum, COMPACTapron and
COMPACTeasy.

Rotor spinning process
Innovations that bring considerable improvements in efficiency for the rotor spinning
process are also presented. The draw frame module RSB-Module 50 can be used in
combination with the high-performance card C 80 and can be configured to a highly
efficient direct process with the new semi-automated R 37 or the fully automated
R 70. The new, cost-effective rotor spinning machines are characterized by low
energy consumption, high productivity and high machine availability with low raw
material costs.

Air-jet spinning process
There are innovations for the air-jet spinning process too: The process for producing
a very attractive yarn made of 100% combed cotton is presented. At the Rieter booth,
let yourself be convinced that this process is extremely cost-effective, despite the
combed out short fiber content.

ESSENTIAL – Rieter Digital Spinning Suite
The new innovations for the four spinning processes are supplemented by two new
functionalities of ESSENTIAL: ESSENTIALorder and ESSENTIALconsult, which are
available to all Rieter customers free of charge with the purchase of a new machine.
In addition to the existing modules ESSENTIALmonitor, ESSENTIALmaintain and
ESSENTIALpredict, the next steps are demonstrated: ESSENTIALlab for integrating
laboratory data into the spinning mill management system, ESSENTIALoptimize, the
intelligent recipe management system, and ESSENTIALautomate for integrating the
transport and logistics systems.

After Sales
The growing digital service offering complements new solutions for optimizing the
installed base. With the PSM Drafting Motor, Rieter After Sales offers a significant
improvement on the machines G 33 and K 44; and with the Energy Saving Support
Disc it offers the possibility to make considerable energy savings on rotor spinning
machines.

Bräcker, Graf, Novibra, SSM and Suessen
The Rieter Group’s component manufacturers also introduce further innovations for
day-to-day operations, such as the Bräcker ring traveler C1 ELM udr and the new
SOLIDRING B 188 from Suessen. In preciforce, SSM presents a system for
optimizing the bobbin build-up on precision winding machines. SSM also reveals
another yarn innovation: fancyflex is a technology for manufacturing slub yarn for
textured yarns.

Visit us at ITMA 2019 in Barcelona (Fira de Barcelona, Gran Via) from June 20 to 26,
2019. See for yourself the numerous advantages on offer from Rieter in hall 6 at
booth C 201. Detailed information on Rieter’s innovations and access for downloading the Rieter images are available online at www.rieter.com
