Allma scores points with E3 Technology

From 10th to 12th February 2015, the Tire Technology Expo in Cologne, the most important international trade fair and conference centre for tire design and manufacture, is once again the platform for tire manufacturers and suppliers from all over the world. Visitors to the trade fair are worldwide the leading experts, top engineering executives and purchasing managers in the tire manufacturing sector. Allma welcomes visitors in Hall 11.1 at Stand 1010 and is looking forward to presenting the new E³-technologies.
As a market leader and forerunner of innovation, Allma designs and develops products that clearly stand out from competitive companies in terms of energy consumption, economic viability, ergonomics and safety. Further ongoing developments at Allma focus on customer benefits in order to strengthen their competitiveness. In order to represent the added value of its products, Saurer has launched its new E³ logo on the market. “E³” stands for Energy, Economics and Ergonomics. Through innovative developments, the energy consumption of the machines is constantly reduced, economic viability of production steadily increased and ergonomics continually improved.
Energy – Twist & Save with E³ Technology
In two out of three car tires, the tire cord is a product of Allma machines. Formerly on ring twisting machines and today on cabling machines – Allma has always set new milestones in the manufacture of tire cord. The cabling machine CableCorder CC4, the fourth generation, has revolutionized cabling technology by means of its innovative outer yarn delivery system. With a controlled slim yarn balloon, energy consumption has been successfully reduced by up to 50% compared to other models. This system has been patented and may be exclusively used by Allma customers.

Economics – Economic production of tire cord and industrial yarns
Energy costs can be up to 50% of overall production costs, depending on the location, and therefore this innovation makes a considerable contribution to cost reduction and thus aiding economic viability and competitiveness. Up to 50% fewer yarn breaks and lower air-conditioning costs through reduced waste heat also substantially increase the productivity of the machine.

Ergonomics – Tailored to the needs of the user
A slim yarn balloon reduces the noise level enormously. Up to 5 dB(A) lower noise levels have been measured. Features such as the bobbin conveyor belt and the protection flap allow simple and effective operation of the machine. Together with the outstanding yarn and bobbin quality, the optimum conditions for the highest level of value creation have been set for today and for tomorrow.

Saurer E³ philosophy puts the customer at the forefront. Only products which fulfill all the demands in respect of Energy, Economics and Ergonomics receive the E³ Label. The successful CableCorder CC4 for the manufacture of symmetric top quality 2-ply tire cord meets all these requirements and combines innovation, quality, energy efficiency, productivity increase and user friendliness.

The Allma Trade Fair Team will be delighted to provide further information to customers and interested parties at Stand 1010 in Hall 11.1.
