ITMA 2015 was off to a flying start with one of the most high profile announcements in the spinning segment. The Saurer Group, the world’s leading producer of automatic winders, announced a joint venture with Premier Evolvics of Coimbatore for manufacturing yarn clearers.
Schlafhorst Autoconer 6 is the latest model setting new standards in energy saving, productivity and package quality. In order to take a step closer to completing the control of the data in the spinning process and optimize the yarn quality, the Saurer Group has joined forces with Premier Evolvics Pvt. Ltd. and formed a joint venture, Saurer Premier Technologies Private Ltd., in Coimbatore for developing and manufacturing yarn clearers.
“The innovative and pro-active team of Premier is an excellent match to Schlafhorst Winding team” says Martin Folini, CEO of Saurer Group. “We are very proud that we have managed to find such an excellent partner for our continued development of the active management of the spinning process.”
Premier’s philosophy based on “Intelligent Technology”, “Intelligent Solutions” and “Intelligent Support” is designed to address the challenges while at the same time making it easier for the textile producer to achieve the desired goal.
With the joint venture with the Saurer Group, whose Saurer Schlafhorst is one of the world’s leading producers of automatic winders, the intelligent solutions will take a quantum leap towards a complete data control in the spinning process.
Schlafhorst Autoconer 6 is setting new standards in energy saving, productivity and package quality and were shown in combination with Saurer Premier’s new Clearer IRisFX at the ITMA in Milan.
“Continuous development of the clearer in close co-operation with a winder manufacturer is a huge advantage. The joint venture partnership is a win-win for both parties, but the first and foremost for the customer who in the future can profit from the synergy arising from this co-operation”, says Sridhar Varadaraj, Managing Director of Premier Evolvics. “We are very pleased that Saurer recognized our potential and that we managed to find such an excellent partner for our continued development of the active management of the spinning process.”
The winding and clearer knowhow in this joint venture opens new possibilities in optimizing the data processing for customers. The first innovative product from this joint venture – IRisFX – a new clearer generation with superior foreign fibre and white PP detection, was exhibited both at the Saurer booth on the new Schlafhorst Autoconer 6 and the Premier booth.
