CH-8834 Schindellegi
Tel: not yet defined
Mobile: +41 79 789 71 08

News in the segments: 

Process Technologies - Aramid short cut fibers

A new possibility: from filament to short cut fibers. Ready to be used for extrusion in the plastic engineering field. 

Services – textile machines overhaul

A production machine for down stream processes of synthetic filaments e.g. monofil has been complete overhauled and all relevant components has been repaired or replaced. Warranty given 1 year after start up. 

High lights 2018/2019 in the segments:

Services – consultancy technology & marketing support staple fiber production

with a detailed action list for internal and external optimisations we could create a turn around from negative EBITDA to a positive result within 1 year only. 

Services – consultancy merge and acquisition textile machines

A profound support naming the technical and technological assets of a company as well as the prove of market acceptance led to a remarkable and secured acquisition.

Industry Solutions

Quartz Glass Filaments high performance fiber

In a thickness range from 9 and 14µm. Producing continuous filament in a melt spinning process. SSE is working on this project together with a significant university. SSE’s target is to specify and engineer a pilot-machine which allows an upscale to a production machine. 

Armos Aramide high performance fiber

The raw materials SVM und Co-Polyamid enable properties remarkable over the today available existing Para Aramide values. SSE is project leader in cooperation with investors, potential producers, machine suppliers and Universities targeting a complete line from dope preparation to winding.

Process Technologies

Drying of high performance fibers

In wet spinning the product need to be dried. The thermodynamic principles of the equipment used in this segment is an essential cost factor. Also important is the solvent recovery in the dedicated process step. Remarkable savings could be achieved using the optimal equipment. SSE supports in the energy related calculations and define the dimensions and temperatures of the heating components.

Fixation of high performance fibers

In the subsequent fixation process the yarn will be defined stretched and thermal fixed. The remaining solvent will be evaporated and recovered. Important here is the configuration of the drive systems and the components reliable for temperatures up to 430°C. SSE defines the drive and heating elements in regards of dimensions and properties.

Products

Spare parts for Zinser draw twister and draw winder

Worldwide is still a remarkable population of the Zinser machines for down stream processes behind the filament- or monofil spinning machines in operation. SSE provide spare parts for machine type Zinser 517-x, 547-x, 520-x und 548-x.

Spare parts for nearly all spinning- and process machines

Quit often exact identical parts or not (any more) available. SSE provides compatible parts for close to all mechanical and electronic components for texturizing machines, twisters etc. 

Services

Overhaul for Zinser Draw Twister and Draw Winder

Worldwide there is still a remarkable number of Zinser-Machines for thetreatment of mainly High Performance Fibers and Monofil in operation. SSE provides complete overhauls and long term service support.

spare-parts and maintenance strategies for filament production machines

SSE provides spare parts strategies customized to ensure the requested availability of the complete machine, sections and positions. This will optimize the process- and delivery capability and minimize the capital tie of the stored goods.

Overhaul of Vectron frequency inverters

SSE started to overhaul Vectron-Inverters already in 2011 with the support of a professional repair shop. Till today there are more than 100 inverters overhauled by us and working daily in the machines. Subsequent of an overhaul procedure SSE guarantees a trouble-free operation of at least 1 year after start up

Components selection and calculation of heat transfer and solvent
recovery for Aramide–production plants

SSE calculates heat transfer rates and the energy consumption of vaporisation and fixation processes. The results lead to a clearindication of the energy consumption, the contact times and the potential of the solvent recovery for wet spinning e.g. for Aramide production.

Company

SSE has been founded in the year  2000 and is concentrating in tasks  related to machines and technologies producing synthetic fibers. For our worldwide located customers we identify and deliver parts and components to maintain the availability of their machine. In case of open questions regarding performance and use of raw materials we support to find the optimal supply source in regard of technology demands. We consult producers and machine suppliers in merge and acquisition processes and resolve open questions regarding technique and technologies.
