Pumps in a spinning plant
Planetary melt spinning pumps The spinning pump is one of the key components of a spinning system. Even when used over many years of production, all Oerlikon Barmag spinning pumps guarantee consistent yarn quality, the most important factor in successful yarn production. The special advantages of Oerlikon Barmag’s planetary gear spinning pumps include: - optimal melt flow due to rheologically advantageous melt channels; - melt channels with optimised surfaces, ensuring superior flow conditions; - high-precision manufacturing methods, allowing for excellent running performance and stable melt exchange; - specially designed relief grooves in the melt outlet area of the gears, for minimized compression forces and operation with few fluctuations in the flow. Together, these advantages translate into the uniformity of the melt streams. Rectangular melt spinning pumps are available on request. Planetary spin-finish pumps The more even the application of the spin-finish liquid to the yarn, the better the yarn quality. A trailblazing design now sets considerably higher standards in terms of feeding accuracy, reliability and durability. The Oerlikon Barmag spin-finish pump concept is based on the old proven planetary gear pump principle with a centrally driven sun gear and four planetary gears. The balanced force ratio within the pump and the constructively influenced low bearing load guarantee low frictional wear. In addition to its small size with flow paths of equal length, one major benefit is the large number of possible outlets per pump, whereby the maximum number of outlets is 40. Hence, for a spinning plant with a take-up unit for 20 threads, a spin finish pump would suffice for a double spin finish system (oiling system).

PROFIN Feed accuracy, operating stability, and service life of the equipment are the fundamental properties of our spin-finish pumps. As far as the PROFIN series is concerned, excellent feeding accuracy, optimum internal flow conditions and the self-venting effect which prevents the agglomeration of airbubbles represents preconditions for a precise and uniform oil-application on a high quality standard. Mixing and metering in polymer processing Extremely high metering accuracy and mixing performance ensure that your products are top quality. There is a series of systems available for the various feeding and mixing tasks, optimally designed to fulfill the requirements of flexible production. Colour and additive injection is primarily used with textile filaments. Nevertheless, for producers interested in mixing and metering injection systems are available on request.
