Despite India being one of the largest markets for Truetzschler worldwide, the business there in 2012 was a bit low, says Mr. Hermann Selker, Head of Sales and Marketing, Truetzschler Group. Pakistan was a most promising market for Truetzschler in 2012.

Despite the temporary slump, The Truetzschler Group continues to be quite optimistic about the future prospects in the Indian market. With a 800-strong team in India, the company continues to invest in its manufacturing facility and also increase the local content in the machines to make it more competitive in the domestic market.

TCO 12 Comber

The new Toyota-Truetzschler comber TCO 12 is the result of the joint efforts of the two world class producers of textile machinery. The product launched was demonstrated at India ITME. With the mechanical speed of up to 600 nips/min, the machine produces consistent, reproducible qualities of combed sliver of highest level, thanks to the 2-twin-drive technology.

The main advantages of TCO 12 are reduction of torsion to 25 per cent, reduction of vibration to less than 25 per cent, optimised sliver coiling geometry, simple optimisation of piecing process, and easier operation due to good accessibility.

The TCO 12 will be manufactured at the Indian plant of Truetzschler. The company is testing these machines before delivering to customers. The TCO 12 will be manufactured in India to cater to local demand, and will be exported to other global markets soon. The new comber will be marketed both by Toyota and Truetzschler.
