turn air.
The new Luwa MultiCell Filter
opens up many opportunities to re-
duce the required foor space of air-
conditioning and fltration plants in
textile mills.
EasyHeat PLUS was the new addi-
tion to the product range of System
Koenig. EasyHeat PLUS provides a
2-step energy saving generation of
hot process water. The frst step is a
standard water to water heat recov-
ery unit of the System Koenig prod-
uct range. The second is an industri-
al heat pump in order to raise the hot
water temperature. EasyHeat PLUS
provides hot water of up to 75°C.
On the response from Indian cus-
tomers, Mr. Abrell said: “Our entire
sales team from Luwa India together
with the complete team of our rep-
resentative A.T.E. was extremely
busy having discussions with many
customers from India. We could
demonstrate and explain our new
developments to a big number of
mill owners and decision makers in
the industry. 2011 has been a very
good year for Luwa India, even bet-
ter than 2010 despite the slowdown
in the second half year of 2011. In
addition to the traditional textile
sector, we could book good orders
in the synthetic fber and nonwoven
sectors”.
In a live demonstration Luwa op-
erated a Uniluwa system with Tex-
fog for process air conditioning.
The Uniluwa is supplying precisely
controlled clean air to the new air-
jet spinning machine of Rieter on
their adjacent booth. Control and
monitoring of all parameters is ac-
complished with the superior Luwa
Digi5 Control System.
On the Indian textile industry
and its future growth prospects, he
observed: “India’s textile industry
will grow further and move on to be
a more organized sector. This will
happen in line with an increased fo-
cus on quality and productivity as
labour costs are raising and getting
good, skilled workers is more and
more diffcult. In line with these de-
velopments the humidifcation and
waste collection plants need to be
of the highest performance level at
the same time must require low lev-
els for maintenance. This is exactly
where a Luwa plant with its proven
effciency and reliability comes in”.
