Spandex Technology

GTC can offer state-of-the-art modern processes and designs to upgrade and revamp existing plants for better performance.

The spandex (poly-urethane based elastic yarn) industry has rapidly expanded in Asia during recent years.  This evolutionary growth has been based on incorporating a variety of process information and equipment desigs.  Many spandex manufacturers recognize the necessity of adopting advanced technology to improve the operating efficiency, yield, and product quality.  GTC Technology can offer state-of-the-art modern process designs to help improve existing spandex plant revamps and process upgrades in the following key areas:
  • Pre-polymerization reactor design - continuous multi-tube system
  • Main polymerization reactor - high shear design
  • Spin cell design improvement
  • Aspiration gas flow system improvement
  • Advanced winder - designed to improve the package formation by uniform traverse tension control and unwinding performance
