Suzhou Sishon Avails Rieter’s RSB-D 50c To Top The China Charts

As a new player in the air-jet yarn market, Rieter customer Suzhou Sishon Biofiber Co Ltd aims to become one of the largest producers in China. Despite increasing energy and personal costs, the company’s goal is to market a yarn with high level of quality and consistency.

Suzhou Sishon is part of the Yingxiang Group and is located in Suzhou, China. The company processes cotton, viscose, polyester and their blends.

The Challenge: Becoming one of the largest producer of air-jet yarn in China

Sishon is a new player in the air-jet yarn market and aims to become one of the largest producers in China. Its air-jet yarn counts range from number 10 to 60. The goal is to achieve a yarn with an excellent reputation on the market for quality and consistency. However, rising costs and personal demand energy-saving solutions and automation in production. To achieve all these targets, Sishon needs to make careful decisions regarding its investment in equipment, especially in draw frames.

The Solution: The Draw Frame RSB-D 50c

Sishon uses three draw frame passages. It decided to invest in 46 SB-D 22s draw frames and 52 RSB-D 50c supports the customer in producing high-end yarn with consistent quality. The draw frame can process several raw materials such as cotton, viscose, polyester, and their blends.

The benefits of Sishon: A production rate increase of 50%

As the last draw frame passage, the RSB-D 50c runs perfectly with two passages of the prefixed SB-D 22s draw frame. The silver produced in this way directly feeds the next process stage. The system increases the production rate by 50% and and ensures a higher silver quality.

In a workshop fitted with Rieter draw frames, three operators and two mechanics run ten SB-D 22s and ten RSB-D 50cs. For the same production, they need five operators and three mechanics in a workshop with machines from other suppliers.

Installing Rieter draw frames reduces the operator requirement by 40% and the mechanic requirement by 35%. RSB-D 50c draw frame guarantees smooth running of the air-jet spinning machine at highest efficiency and quality levels.
