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.

Perfect quality through collaboration: Machinery from Trützschler, Toyota and Murata at Zirve Tekstil

In today’s textile industry, excellence is not achieved by chance – it’s the result of deliberate decisions, technical expertise, and the courage to go beyond conventional paths. The Turkish company Zirve Tekstil has done just that: by combining the best technologies from Trützschler, Toyota and Murata, they’ve created a production setup that delivers outstanding yarn quality – recognized worldwide.

Details matter: How Trützschler cylinder wires boost efficiency in Pakistan’s spinning sector

Pakistan’s textile industry, especially its spinning sector, is the backbone of the national economy and a vibrant hub of innovation. Today’s spinning mills face growing demands for efficiency, quality, and sustainability. From the serene northern valleys to the vibrant port city of Karachi in the south, mills like Suraj Cotton Mills, Liberty, and Nishat Chunian are turning to advanced solutions.

T-CAN – Revolutionizing can transport

In virtually all spinning mills, transporting sliver cans is still done manually. Rising labor costs, lack of operators and increasing quality requirements make this a growing challenge. With T-CAN, Trützschler introduces a practical solution: a fully automated can transport system that will be presented live at ITMA ASIA 2025 in Singapore.

Pre-Cleaner CL-X: The future of cotton cleaning

What if the future of cotton cleaning was already here – setting a new standard for cleaning efficiency, productivity and energy savings? That future has a name: CL-X. Since its market launch in 2022, the Pre-Cleaner CL-X has become a true bestseller, proving its value in several hundred customer applications worldwide. Now, new results from Türkiye demonstrate again how the Pre-Cleaner CL-X outperforms the competition.

Temco launches a new DTY all-in-one solution

Temco introduces the DTY All-in-One Solution – a fully harmonized set of components engineered to give customers a highly stable, low maintenance and reproducible process environment. The solution reduces interruptions, extends component lifetimes and supports consistent yarn quality across all machine positions. All-in-One Solution – a fully harmonized set of components engineered to provide maintenance and reproducible process environment.

DIENES at Techtextil 2026: Flexible pilot lines for bio-based fiber development

The growing relevance of bio-based materials in technical textiles is accompanied by increasing demands for reproducibility, high-quality data, and scalable process routes. Especially when working with cellulose and its derivatives, chitosan, lignin-based approaches, or bio-based PAN as a carbon-fiber precursor, R&D teams face variable feedstock quality, tighter process windows, and the need for reliable comparability across trials. This calls for flexible, data-driven experimental setups that can be reconfigured efficiently when recipes, solvents, and raw-material batches change.

RETECH showcases high-precision godets for high-performance fiber processing at Techtextil 2026

RETECH designs and manufactures godets and draw frames for heated, ambient and cooled processes, enabling precise heat treatment and consistently high yarn quality for a wide range of polymers and applications, with process temperatures of up to 400 °C for high-performance fibers. The company’s key competence lies in exact and stable temperature and speed control, individually adapted to the specific material and process requirements.

New study shows low environmental impact by Cotton made in Africa Organic Cotton from Tanzania

Today, the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) is announcing the results of a comprehensive life-cycle analysis (LCA) for cotton produced in Tanzania under the Cotton made in Africa Organic (CmiA Organic) standard. The study emphasises the small ecological footprint of CmiA Organic verified cotton. This can largely be traced back to the absence of synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilisers, and artificial irrigation. Consequently, CmiA Organic cotton can help the textile industry meet regulatory requirements as well as science-based targets. The results also show that the consequences of climate change threaten the livelihoods of these cotton farmers, even though the type of agriculture they practise barely contributes to climate change.

PERFORMANCE DAYS proves its relevance as the industry’s key meeting point

Held on March 18–19, 2026, PERFORMANCE DAYS once again confirmed its position as a leading international platform for functional textiles. A total of 3.366 trade visitors and around 560 exhibitors gathered in Munich, with the event already kicking off successfully on DAY 0, which received highly positive feedback for its interactive format. Despite challenging conditions caused by the public transport strike in Munich, the event saw strong attendance and a consistently high level of activity across both exhibition days.
