DTY Jet insert APe043 redefines low denier yarn processing

Heberlein Technology, a leader in air interlacing and texturing jets, is set to showcase its latest products at GTTES in Mumbai, India. Key highlights include the new housing generation HemaJet-LB06 and the DTY jet insert APe043, featuring a record-small 0.65 mm orifice for superior performance in extremely low denier yarns.

Record-small 0.65mm orifice launched during GTTES 2025

The Indian market drives demand for lightweight, premium fabrics using ultra-fine yarns, especially for activewear and luxury garments. The surge in synthetic fibre manufacturing positions Heberlein’s innovations as essential tools for meeting these needs. Visitors at GTTES 2025 receive first-hand information at Heberlein and are warmly invited to come and see the Swiss company at booth D17 in hall 3.

APe043 Jet insert improves productivity and profitability

The APe043 Jet insert minimizes yarn displacement, preventing undeveloped knots and ensuring smooth production for ultra-fine yarns down to 20 denier. This new technical development aligns with the increasing demand for high-quality fabrics in global markets and supports the rapid growth of polyamide filament production capacity. On top, the APe043 jet insert features energy-efficient technology resulting in a positive impact on the mill’s profit.

HemaJet-LB06 – the economic solution for ATY

Heberlein, known for the production of high-quality jets for air texturing, offers the complete solution from a single source. The brand new robust HemaJet-LB06 jet housing is compatible with all Heberlein jet core series (T, A, and S).

This compatibility makes it an ideal solution for various air texturing process requirements. The distance between the impact body and the jet core can be easily adjusted using various gauges, allowing for precise control and optimization of the texturing process.

Heberlein jet cores are the reliable solution for the ATY industry for decades. Suiting a wide range of requirements like compact and uniform yarns from 30dtex up to 3,000dtex or softer, textile yarns achieved through a higher overfeed potential. In a nutshell, Heberlein provides the ideal solution for every application. Customers can choose from the great jet core portfolio and whatever jet core fits the needs, it fits – guaranteed – the housing too.

The new generation of spinning jet

Worldwide recognition receives the PolyJet-SP3 for spinning textile yarn. Producers of demanding technical yarns highly appreciate the PolyJet-TG-3-HP405A/WO70 (TopAir) achieving yarn with unmatched even and uniform interlacing density. Furthermore, this jet impresses customers with strong, reliable knots for high-tenacity yarns (HT and HMLS). Heberlein’s PolyJet-TG-3 achieves more than 12 knots per meter with 1100f98dtex and 1670f98dtex. Additionally, yarn parameters of tensile strength, elongation, and elasticity show smaller variations, for ultimate quality benefits, as well as improved unwinding behaviour of the bobbins.

A typical Heberlein benefit comes with the PolyJet series SP-3 and TG-3. The high-performance air interlacing jets for textile and technical yarns offer a unique quick-release system, so jet packs can be exchanged within seconds, with just a single 180-degree turn. They also feature a compact, space-saving design and a roll bar to protect the ceramic surfaces.

Jets developed for filament perfection

Heberlein Technology AG, Wattwil, Switzerland, October 2, 2025 – Heberlein, the leading supplier of air interlacing and air texturing jets, aims to impress visitors at ITMA Asia + CITME 2025. Novel solutions will be presented, which will allow filament yarn producers to achieve special quality specifications and process optimization. As expected from Heberlein, these latest developments combine the most sophisticated technology with user convenience and savings potential.

It’s the know-how that counts

The Textile Technology Centre is the pride of Heberlein. State-of-the-art equipment and a team of top experts guarantee the highest standards of support for customers. Heberlein is the leading provider of air interlacing and air texturing jets for synthetic continuous filament yarns and its clients enjoy added value in the form of practical help and guidance on textile processes and economic issues, with a special focus on filament yarn applications.

DIENES at Techtextil 2026: Flexible pilot lines for bio-based fiber development

The growing relevance of bio-based materials in technical textiles is accompanied by increasing demands for reproducibility, high-quality data, and scalable process routes. Especially when working with cellulose and its derivatives, chitosan, lignin-based approaches, or bio-based PAN as a carbon-fiber precursor, R&D teams face variable feedstock quality, tighter process windows, and the need for reliable comparability across trials. This calls for flexible, data-driven experimental setups that can be reconfigured efficiently when recipes, solvents, and raw-material batches change.

RETECH showcases high-precision godets for high-performance fiber processing at Techtextil 2026

RETECH designs and manufactures godets and draw frames for heated, ambient and cooled processes, enabling precise heat treatment and consistently high yarn quality for a wide range of polymers and applications, with process temperatures of up to 400 °C for high-performance fibers. The company’s key competence lies in exact and stable temperature and speed control, individually adapted to the specific material and process requirements.

New study shows low environmental impact by Cotton made in Africa Organic Cotton from Tanzania

Today, the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) is announcing the results of a comprehensive life-cycle analysis (LCA) for cotton produced in Tanzania under the Cotton made in Africa Organic (CmiA Organic) standard. The study emphasises the small ecological footprint of CmiA Organic verified cotton. This can largely be traced back to the absence of synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilisers, and artificial irrigation. Consequently, CmiA Organic cotton can help the textile industry meet regulatory requirements as well as science-based targets. The results also show that the consequences of climate change threaten the livelihoods of these cotton farmers, even though the type of agriculture they practise barely contributes to climate change.

PERFORMANCE DAYS proves its relevance as the industry’s key meeting point

Held on March 18–19, 2026, PERFORMANCE DAYS once again confirmed its position as a leading international platform for functional textiles. A total of 3.366 trade visitors and around 560 exhibitors gathered in Munich, with the event already kicking off successfully on DAY 0, which received highly positive feedback for its interactive format. Despite challenging conditions caused by the public transport strike in Munich, the event saw strong attendance and a consistently high level of activity across both exhibition days.
