Trützschler and the Deutschlandstipendium: Supporting aspiring talents for seven years!

The winter semester 2022 is ready to start at universities across Germany – and so is a new funding period for the “Deutschlandstipendium” initiative from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. At its headquarters in Mönchengladbach, Trützschler has been one of the sponsors for seven years.

The Deutschlandstipendium aims to give talented young people an early chance to make contacts and explore engagement opportunities with well-known companies in the region. Ideally, this will lead to long-term cooperation or permanent employment. In recent years, Trützschler has supported several students at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences in Mönchengladbach. This includes specialized internships or writing final theses in a wide range of disciplines – such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and data analytics.

Yifei Song is one of those talented young people. The IT student has been a permanent employee at Trützschler since graduating. “The scholarship gave me a valuable opportunity to delve deeper into the textile industry and expand my network,” she says. “I was especially grateful for the very dedicated support from my personal mentor while I was writing the thesis for my bachelor’s degree.” Her colleague Tobias Hölters, a former scholarship holder in electrical engineering with a focus on automation technology, adds: “Thanks to the financial relief provided by the Deutschlandstipendium, I was able to concentrate fully on my studies. In addition to the individual professional support, it was also great that my supervisor shared practical tips about starting a career. It’s even nicer that I was able to begin my career directly at Trützschler after completing my master’s degree.”

This year, Trützschler will support eight scholarship holders. We are particularly pleased that we are now also sponsoring the RWTH Aachen, alongside our support for the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences in Mönchengladbach. Three scholarships will be awarded at the RWTH Aachen in the fields of mechanical engineering with a focus on textile technology, or in electrical engineering.

“I would recommend this scholarship to everybody. The deep insights into the company open up a wide range of interesting topics, excellent networking opportunities and great career prospects,” says Jan Herzog, a former scholarship holder in the field of electrical engineering with a focus on automation. He is now employed as Division Manager of Electric/Electronical Production at Trützschler.

Supporting young and ambitious people has been firmly anchored in our philosophy as a family-owned company for over 130 years. We look forward to all upcoming cooperations and to encouraging the success stories of our scholarship holders.

STEELTOP®: A new benchmark in flat tops for spinning preparation

Modern carding generations achieve higher production performance, placing significantly greater stress on flat tops. Higher cylinder speeds and increased fiber density, combined with tighter carding gaps, create more demanding operating conditions. At the same time, poorer raw material quality and the increased use of recycled materials further intensify these challenges. With STEELTOP®, Trützschler introduces a new full steel flat top series developed for these demanding modern carding processes.

Rieter sees Barmag integration on track as orders and sales rise

The first half of 2026 was shaped by the successful completion of the largest acquisition in Rieter’s history. The Man-Made Fiber Division enables entry into the growth segment of man-made fibers and sustainably strengthens Rieter’s market position in the Asia region. The expanded Group is now the world’s leading system supplier for the processing of natural and man-made fibers. In the first half of the year, initial cost savings in material costs and operating expenses have already been realized. The targeted synergies are expected to amount to at least CHF 20 million by the end of the 2028 financial year. Due to the completion of the acquisition on February 2, 2026, the first half of the year for the Man-Made Fiber Division only amounts to five months.

Object Carpet tests production of rPET BCF yarn on Neumag BCF line

In a joint project with Object Carpet GmbH, Denkendorf; the Institute for Textile Technology (ITA), Augsburg; and Next Generation Recyclingmaschinen GmbH (NGR), Feldkirchen, Austria, Barmag investigated the processing of recycled polyester for BCF yarn. The goal was to evaluate the fundamental suitability of 100% recycled carpet material for reuse in carpet yarn production to create a closed-loop system in carpet manufacturing. To date, commercial rPET BCF processes have been based solely on rPET from bottle pellets.

New spinning package with two-step filtration for recycled yarns and more

At the ITM in Istanbul, BB Engineering unveiled its new, patented ValuePack spinning package for the first time, which features a two-stage filtration system. This is particularly beneficial for re-cycling processes. Until now, spinning packs have used either metal powder (“sand”) or filter candles as filter media. Both options are suitable for differ-ent applications, and each has its own specific advantages and dis-advantages.
