Trütszchler’s New Carding Machine TC 30i Attracts Great Interest in the Market
Trützschler’s next-generation carding machine TC 30i, equipped with smart functions and sustainable features, launched at the ITMA 2023 Fair, attracted great attention in the market. This innovative card inspires customers and confirms Trützschler as the trend-setting pioneer for textile machinery. Sales of TC 30i also continue successfully.
The TC 30i offers a huge range of groundbreaking new features and fascinating details. But there are three benefits that our customers are particularly excited about:
- High levels of performance and yarn quality thanks to 35% more active flats and 14% increased carding length in combination with the intelligent gap optimizer T-GO.
- Operator-independent, consistent results thanks to automatic and continuous carding gap setting with T-GO.
- More sustainable and economical use of raw materials thanks to a redesigned suction system that collects different types of waste separately – enabling 50% of card waste to be reused. Alternatively, high-quality waste can be sold to third parties for an attractive price.
Raw material savings with Wastecontrol
The TC 30i also comes with the proven Wastecontrol system – an easy-to-use and effective assurance against unnecessary fiber loss. Trützschler cleaners with Wastecontrol have ensured the best raw material utilization and minimum waste for years.
The optical sensor of Wastecontrol permanently monitors the waste quality at the most important cleaning point, the licker-in. If too many good fibers are registered in the waste, the system optimizes the mote knife adjusting system via the servo motor. The influence of Wastecontrol on the cost-effectiveness of carding is tremendous. Whereas on other cards the waste separation is not measurable and cannot be influenced during production, the TC 30i always works at optimum efficiency thanks to the permanently measured data.
A model for each application
We are also launching a version of this card specifically developed for textile recycling. It answers technical challenges in processing secondary fibers like high short fiber content, on average shorter fibers and yarn and fabric particles.
Operation is as simple as using a smartphone
Equipped with Smart Touch for identification, RFID sensor and T-LED for remote display, using the TC 30i is as simple as using a smartphone.
Smart Touch
The monitor forms the interface be-tween the operator and the machine. For the first time, it is designed in multi-touch technology. Operation is just as intuitive as using a Smart-phone or tablet.
Identification via personal chips
The control recognizes the person and the authorization by the chip. In this way, the operator only receives the information required for the fulfilment of his role.
