SSM (Schärer Schweiter Mettler AG), an innovative leader in yarn processing and winding and Swiss developer, leader, and holder of patents in electronic yarn guiding systems, presented latest SSM solution for spreading, splitting, and winding of carbon at JEC World 2017, the largest composites show in the world, in Paris, France, from March 14 to 16, 2017.
In collaboration with the Institut für Textiltechnik of RWTH Aachen University (ITA) and Gruschwitz Textilwerke AG, producer of technical yarns, SSM developed a modular concept to enhance the properties of carbon fibre rovings. The newly introduced SSM carbon machine features a modular design and spreads, splits and winds carbon fibres. The machine spreads and splits heavy tows made of carbon fibres with up to 50K (other fibres on request) which are then divided into split tows with a defined number of filaments between 3K and 12K. Thanks to this new SSM process, the costs for light tows are being reduced significantly.SSM (Scharer Schweiter Mettler AG), an innovative leader in yarn processing and winding and Swiss developer, leader, and holder of patents in electronic yarn guiding systems, presented latest SSM solution for spreading, splitting, and winding of carbon at JEC World 2017, the largest composites show in the world, in Paris, France, from March 14 to 16, 2017.#
