Air Covering

SSM Schärer Schweiter Mettler AG offers the most suitable air covering solution for every customer. The DP3-C is an air covering machine based upon the pioneering single drive technology, first introduced by SSM. The DP3-CT is a further enhancement of the air covering machine and can be utilised to air jet texture FDY/FOY. Consequently customers can order the machine that best fits their particular requirements. The basic machine concept fully exploits the potential of modern air covering and air texturing jets and reaches take-up speeds of up to 1200 m/min. The SSM single drive concept allows individual production on each position. Highest production speeds, fast product changes and the flexibility of individual production on each spindle offers our customers an efficient production of even smallest lots.
