Germany-based Zinser, a subsidiary of Saurer GmbH& Co. KG, also based in Germany, now offers modular concepts for its 351 cotton and 451 worsted ring spinning machines.The company says the concepts provide its customers with the flexibility to add features as needed after the initial purchase of the machine.In developing the modular concepts, Zinser also has upgraded certain modules including the ServoDraft electronic drafting system drive,CoWeMat to minimize doffing time, and the Optisuction system for energy-optimized suction of yarn breakage.Cotton spinning concepts include Zinser 351 for conventional ring spinning with a range of applications and features, and Zinser 351 C3 for compact spinning using CompACT3 technology. In addition, CompACT3 technology can be retrofitted on the Zinser 351 + model. CoreSpun and SiroSpun technologies can be incorporated separately or in combination into the 351 machines, as can Fancy- Draft technology.
