More than 120 customers from all around the world followed BB Engineering GmbH’s （BBE） invitation to join the unveiling of its new machine during an Open House Event at its facilities in Remscheid， Germany， on January 21， 2015. Visitors saw the world’s fi rst “VarioFil R+” bottle-to-POY line in operation， producing 150f48 dope-dyed black yarn.
The new VarioFil R+ is the world’s first POY spinning line which uses recycled bottle fl akes as feedstock for dope-dyed textile POY. The line – developed by the subsidiary company of Oerlikon Barmag – provides several technological features such as a special extrusion system for bottle fl ake materials， the latest metering and blending technology for dope-dyeing and an advanced 2-step melt fi ltration. The result is a high quality dope-dyed POY. The turnkey machine comprises 4 spinning positions， each equipped with an Oerlikon Barmag 10-end WINGS？ POY winder.
Bottle fl akes instead of rPET chips： VarioFil R+ reduces spinning process for one step
PET has become the primary material for beverage packaging， billions of PET bottles are used worldwide each year. This huge quantity of PET bottles， usually disposed as waste after initial use， is a perfect source of raw material for the sustainable production of synthetic fi bers. Furthermore， the reutilization of resources and raw materials， along with energy saving production processes， are becoming increasingly popular. The VarioFil？ R+ concept combines all these trends. It uses PET bottle fl akes as a raw material， which avoids the additional pelletizing of bottle fl akes into rPET chips. This leads to a signifi cant advantage in terms of investment and energy costs. It also provides the latest technology for dope-dyeing， which is the most resourcesaving dyeing process. Hence， the development of VarioFil？ R+ underlines the trend of increasing demand for textiles made from yarns which have a ‘sustainable Press Release Background’. It also provides the possibility for recycling companies to sell high-quality yarns instead of bottle fl akes， therefore generating added value.
Downstream with Oerlikon Barmag’s eAFK texturing machine proves yarn quality
Further Open House attractions were the live presentation of the texturizing process， converting the manufactured rPOY into DTY on Oerlikon Barmag’s eAFK texturizing machine， as well as BBE’s brand-new cleaning system for melt filters， known as White Filter Cleaning WFC. WFC allows the cleaning of melt fi lters， but also of other melt-contaminated parts without any chemical solvents and is a good complementary system for the VarioFil R+ line to clean its fi ltration equipment.
A virtual tour through the new VarioFil？ R+ line as well as an impressive insight into the winder assembly department of Oerlikon Barmag， the origin of the famous WINGS POY winder， and several technical presentations covering the fi elds of recycling， yarn production from recycled feedstock and dope-dyeing all made the Open House an informative day for all participants.
