US based textile technology producer, FibeRio Technology said it has launched its latest Forcespinning equipment, specifically designed to meet production needs of fine fibre media producers and converters.

According to FibeRio, its core Forcespinning nanofibre technology has become synonymous with high output melt and solution nanofibre production and introduction of the Fiber Engine FX Series takes the economics of nanofibre production to levels never before achieved.

“The benefits of nanofibres are now commercially viable for a greater variety of nonwovens media applications including air filtration, liquid filtration, apparel, acoustic insulation, energy, packaging and other markets,” it informs.

The Fiber Engine FX has been designed with a modular and expandable architecture and it is therefore configurable for 1.1 meter (FX1100) or 2.2 meter (FX2200) line widths.

With a total output of up to 200 grams per minute and compatible with line speeds of up to 200 meters per minute, the FX can be installed in-line with meltblown or other nonwoven processing equipment for the manufacture of composite or standalone media.

FibeRio says, “This means extracting maximum benefit from the high performance nanofibre layers where it actually matters, whether it’s improved hydrostatic head, air permeability, filtration efficiency, pressure drop, breathability, conductivity, or acoustic and thermal impedance.”

“The Fiber Engine FX is the culmination of extensive engineering and process development work to match the high performance needs of our diverse customer base and their applications”, said Ellery Buchanan, CEO at FibeRio. (AR)
