L.S. Spinning Mills Private Limited has emerged as a leader in the highly competitive textile manufacturing industry, and is well known for producing premium-quality yarn. Their long-standing partnership with LMW for spinning machinery has been key to their sustained growth and innovation. Over the decades, this collaboration has not only overcome challenges but also continuously evolved to create value and reach significant milestones.
With this technologically advanced and highly automated mill, L.S. Spinning Mills Ltd. is able to maintain the same high-quality output while increasing production and reducing manpower requirements. Their yarn realization has improved by 2.5%, and they have achieved significant power savings, positively impacting operational efficiency and setting new benchmark standards.
This fruitful collaboration has significantly boosted LSS Mills production capabilities while setting new industry benchmarks in efficiency, automation, and sustainable practices.
LMW’s Cutting-Edge Technology
LMW’s extensive range of machinery, from blow room equipment to ring spinning frames, has empowered LSS Mills to reach impressive productivity and quality standards. By integrating LMW machines across the entire production process, they ensure consistency and efficiency, reinforcing their position as a preferred supplier to high-end textile manufacturers.
A key highlight of LMW’s machinery is its capability to run at high speeds without compromising the exceptional quality of the yarn. Mr. Harshavardanaa Prabhakaran, Executive Director, LSS Mills, states that they were able “to attain top quality by operating their ring frames at maximum speeds of 26,000 RPM, which enabled them to achieve the highest grams.” This combination of high-speed operation and advanced automation has streamlined LSS Mills workforce, reducing the need to just one operator for every thousand spindles in their newest state-of-the-art facility. As Mr L.S. Prabhakaran states with pride, “there are just 36 people running the complete unit of 36,480 spindles.” LSS Mills is truly a testament to the remarkable levels of automation achieved through LMW’s technology.
