Spinners seminar as part of the International Cotton Conference 2018 in Bremen
The Proper Way of Handling Contaminations in Cotton
The Spinners Seminar will deal with, among others, the following key questions in short lectures, contextual input and especially in discussions between the participants:
- What types of contamination exist and how can they be characterised?
- Causes of contamination – how and at what cost can they be avoided?
- How do the impurities affect the price of cotton?
- What are the requirements of the different steps of the textile industry?
- What cleaning options are there in spinning and what are their advantages and disadvantages?
- What are the possibilities for systematically controlling contaminations along the various process steps in the spinning mill?
- What new machine tools are there for processing contaminated cotton and maintaining spinning stability?
- How do you deal economically with contaminations?
The seminar is a new event on the side-lines of the International Cotton Conference Bremen. It will take place on March 20, 2018 from 2:00pm to 6:00pm. Participation is free of charge.
The seminar will be jointly moderated by Mr Thomas Goller, managing director Hoftex, and Mr Jörg Hehl, division manager Staple Fibre Technologies, DITF Denkendorf.

Among them are, on the part of companies, CSIRO Manufacturing, Australia, Mesdan S.p.A., Italy, Saurer Schlafhorst, Textechno, and Trützschler, Germany, and Uster Technologies, Switzerland.
