Airlay - Aerodynamic web forming process

For aerodynamic web forming, random cards from AUTEFA Solutions utilize the aerodynamic principle which results in three-dimensional fiber orientation and total randomization, enabling isotropic web properties. Airlay line solutions distinguish itself through maximum product quality, economical production, and reliability. The random carding process stands for an improved MD:CD ratio and a three-dimensional web structure. During the process, the fiber material could be opened up to a single fiber, this enables a high versatility regarding fiber choice. The FUTURA design enables easy opening and quick access for cleaning and maintenance. The various line components are mounted on a linear guiding system. Due to the modular structure of the individual components, it allows a modular configuration of the machine, tailored to customer requirements. Completed with Needle Punching Machines Stylus and Thermobonding Oven HiPerTherm, AUTEFA Solutions provides aerodynamic web forming lines out of one hand. 

Classic Aerodynamic Web Forming Line V21/R– Random Card K12

With over 500 units sold and installed worldwide, AUTEFA Solutions Random Card Airlay K12 with the web forming machine V21/R is one of the success stories in the field of aerodynamic web forming. Fed by either a Chute Feeder or alternatively a Hopper Feeder, the Random Card K12 is well suited for a wide range of nonwoven products. Customers chose this proven assembly for a wide range of products or standardized production processes. This aerodynamic web forming line enables fiber opening and randomization in a two-step process. The pre-web forming machine V21/R creates a uniform fiber batt. The following Airlay Random Card K12 provides opening to individual fibers and forms the three-dimensional fiber orientation typical for the aerodynamic process. The FUTURA design enables easy opening and quick access for cleaning and maintenance. The delivery, carding and infeed components are mounted on a linear guiding system.

 

Airlay Random Card K 12 with High-Loft Device

The High-Loft device can be added to any Airlay K 12 in order to increase the degree of vertical fiber orientation. With the High-Loft device, AUTEFA Solutions offers a system which enables the production of webs of higher volume. The Airlay Card K12 with the High-Loft device is able to process a wide variety of fiber types and blends. The system is suitable for both thermal and spray bonding.      

Aerodynamic Web Forming Machine FUTURA V12/R

The compact and economic solution for the processing of natural fibers such as coir, sisal, jute, hemp and cotton as well as animal hair and textile waste is the Aerodynamic Web Forming Machine FUTURA V12/R. Fed by a Hopper Feeder the FUTURA V12/R is capable of producing webs in the weight range of 400 – 7000 gms using a minimal amount of space. Especially for the production of materials from recycled textile waste and shoddy or natural fibers the aerodynamic web forming machine FUTURA V12/R is the key to provide reliable technology at reasonable investment costs. The FUTURA V12/R design enables easy opening and quick access for cleaning and maintenance. The delivery, carding and infeed components are mounted on a linear guiding system.
