Introducing the MESDAN knotter type 093E - A breakthrough innovation for Diaper Manufacturers

© 2023 MESDAN
Produced by MESDAN to join LYCRA HyFit® fiber and other hygiene-grade spandex used in the personal care industry.

The new knotter was developed in cooperation with The LYCRA Company which is the official global distributor of the new knotter.

The hand-operated knotter will bring greater efficiency and reliability to diaper manufacturing operations by eliminating manual knot tying. Operators will no longer have to tie together ends of spandex packages, an error-prone process that can cause production line interruptions.

The type 093E knotter produces consistent knots, leading to reduced downtime.



Its main application is the tail-to-top transfer on creels used in diaper production.

The knotter 093E can be easily moved, directly clamped to the creel structure, or fixed on preset brackets.

MESDAN and The LYCRA Company are thrilled to be able to offer this unique solution to the personal care and disposable care industry.

Reducing development times for technical textiles by accelerated thermo-oxidative aging in a high-pressure autoclave

Synthetic polymers used in technical textiles can be effectively protected against degradation caused by heat, oxygen, and water through the use of stabilizer systems. This enables service lives of several decades, extending to more than 50 years. As the use of durable technical textiles continues to grow, so does the demand for reliable methods to predict their service life within economically feasible testing periods. For the first time the German Institutes of Textile and Fiber Research Denkendorf (DITF) developed methods for robust service life prediction for textiles in an IGF research project.
