The ANDRITZ crosslapping technology is based on 60 years of experience and continuous innovations. The crosslappers can be provided for cards with up to 3.5 m working width and for delivery aprons up to 15 m wide. All transfer carriages and aprons have individual motors in order to control the batt weight distribution. ANDRITZ offers two crosslapper ranges, depending on the line configuration.

On the basis of its experience and expertise, ANDRITZ is able to offer a wide range of innovative solutions in standard spunlace lines, but also in sophisticated nonwovens processes. The passion of the ANDRITZ team results in an original approach in day-to-day business. ANDRITZ knows that each customer is unique, so we always provide an alternative solution to produce customized nonwoven fabrics that meet different market demands.

ANDRITZ offers comprehensive solutions for every kind of drylaid web forming process. Several ranges of cards are available, depending on the line configuration, for a direct or crosslapping layout. The aXcess and eXcelle cards cover all possible market requirements in terms of capacity or web properties.

As a result of its unique experience in the spunlace industry, ANDRITZ offers the
widest range of Jetlace hydroentanglement units to cover the needs of all non­wovens producers around the world.

JetlaceEssentiel

JetlaceEssentiel is perfectly designed to produce lightweight and ultra-lightweight fabrics from 20 to 120 gsm at very high speeds of up to 400 m/min. JetlaceEssentiel is ideal for the production of most synthetic/natural lightweight fabrics for hygiene, medical, and wipes applications. Scaled to meet various line capacity requirements, machines are available in 3.75, 4.00, 4.25, 4.5, and 4.75 m widths.

JetlaceAvantage

JetlaceAvantage is recognized as the new standard for growing markets and is perfectly optimized to produce spunlace fabrics from 30 to 120 gsm for wipes and medical uses. JetlaceAvantage is available in 2.5 and 3.6 m widths. Designed with two or three cylinders, this standard machine can produce state-of-the-art spunlace fabrics at up to 200 m/min.

JetlaceEvolution

To produce durable nonwovens, such as coating substrates and automotive or filtration fabrics, spunlace lines are equipped with crosslappers and Jetlace­Evolution to create nonwovens with a balanced MD/CD ratio. JetlaceEvolution is available in widths up to 4.5 m and is able to produce spunlace fabrics from 30 to 400 gsm.

Jetlace3000

The Jetlace3000 can be fully customized and meet virtually all production requirements in terms of capacity, line speed, fabric weight, and machine width. Jetlace3000 is perfectly designed to manu­facture nonwoven fabrics for filtration, industrial wipes, agricultural, and surgical applications. It can operate at up to1,000 m/min and is available in widths of up to 7.0 m.

JetlaceCottonPad

JetlaceCottonPad is the hydroentanglement system for production of cotton pads and cotton wipes. It retains bulk and delivers perfect surface evenness. And it is compact in size, with widths up to 3.6 m and a product range from 30 to 270 gsm. In order to customize cotton pad and cotton wipe fabrics with creative patterns, spunlace producers can add the optional patterning or aperture system known as Perfojet Unit.

ANDRITZ supplies its own through-air dryer technology to meet the highest performance levels for nonwovens lines. The dryers excel by achieving high nonwovens product quality while saving energy.

neXecodry system

The neXecodry drying technology, a combination of dewatering and drying techno­logy, was designed by ANDRITZ to make significant reductions in the energy consumption of existing spunlace, Wetlace (wetlaid and hydroentanglement), and Airlace production lines. Nonwovens producers achieve better quality fabrics with higher bulk and no pattern degradation.

neXdry

neXdry is a through-air dryer designed and manufactured by ANDRITZ and available for spunlace, Wetlace, Airlace, spunbond, and Spunjet processes at very high production speeds. It features high evaporation capacity and low power consumption.

neXdry Avantage

neXdry Avantage drying technology is designed by ANDRITZ in Europe and made in the ANDRITZ facilities in China.This efficient dryer is the perfect solution to meet the demands of spunlace producers using aXcess lines for a capacity range up to 12,000 t/a.

Perfodry 3000

Perfodry 3000 is well-known in the spunlace, Wetlace, and Airlace processes. It removes up to 1,300 l/h.m of moisture at the high throughput speeds in modern spunlace lines. Designed to provide optimum drying, the Perfodry 3000 has a simple and durable design.
