#ITMA-Asia + CITME-2016

Reiners + Fürst presents its premium rings and travellers 'Made in Germany' at ITMA Asia 2016

Mr. Benjamin Reiners, Owner and Managing Director of R+F (c) 2016 R+F
At ITMA Asia + CITME 2016 in Shanghai Reiners + Fürst will present new travellers for Siro-Compact with optimized geometry and new surface characteristics. The end-users benefit from low yarn hairiness and longer traveller service life.
Customers in China prefer the latest generation of TURBO rings especially for Compact and Siro yarns. During ITMA in Milan R+F introduced this further milestone in high speed spinning. Already more than 2.5 Mio. units are running successfully in the markets. The enhanced surface allows increasing machine efficiencies by up to 10% – especially when producing yarns of sensitive fibres or with highest spindle speeds. For worsted spinning R+F introduces J-travellers for ring heights of 9.1 and 11.1 mm with enhanced surface for better performance of the spinning process. Different shapes are available for top results in the whole range of worsted spinning. For the processing of fibre glass R+F shows the latest series of horizontal travellers for twisting of fine fibre glass filaments for ring heights of 9.5 and 4.8 mm. Customers especially value the professional service and support R+F is providing particularly for finding solutions of increasingly complex applications. Visitors are invited to stop by at R+F’s booth at ITMA Asia + CITME in Shanghai: Hall H1, Stand B 30

At the same time, production becomes circular when innovative technologies and materials are used that enable high-quality recycling. The ALADIN research project, launched in May 2026 and co-funded with five million euros under the EU Horizon Europe program, is creating the conditions for this.
