GreenCompact - world leading mechanical compact

PRESS RELEASE

Rotorcraft innovations at 1st 2026 BTKG Bangladesh International Textile, Knitting and Garment Industry Exhibition focus on eco-friendliness, cost-efficiency

At 2026 Bangladesh International Textile, Knitting and Garment Industry Exhibition, Swiss market leader for spinning innovation Rotorcraft AG introduces to the world-wide textile producing industry, three significant innovations:

The first new product showcased is the Rotorcraft Green Compact™ TrueTraverse
It permits a total traverse path of 10mm. By using the existing traverse capability of the ring frame, the Rotorcraft solution further significantly extends the cot lifetime in the market-leading mechanical compacting system Green Compact™.

The traverse systems of other compact system makers face two major problems: Electrical motors prone to quick burn-out failure, and complicated handling unfit for an industrial manufacturing environment. With the Rotorcraft Green Compact™ True Traverse solution, such problems are a thing of the past!

The second innovation for ITMA Singapore is GreenCompact™ USF (Ultra-Short Fibers). With this world-first solution for ring spinning, Rotorcraft allows customers to use extremely short fibers, which were previously discarded, in the roving to be spun into a high-quality ring yarn.  Fiber range for Rotorcraft’s USF is 18 to 28 mm.  

The system points either to the use of short fibers Cotton 100 in an upcycling process or to be suitable to spin recycled compact ring yarn Cotton 60/40 in a recycling process.

The third innovation fosters the twist/untwist parameters on speed-/ ring frames. GreenCompact™ Speed (Speed- or Simplex frame compact) introduces the world’s first mechanical compact to Roving frames. The Roving Compact improves quality parameters on the Ring frame, even at low twist rates.

These innovations have been selectively introduced to select markets and now go from Singapore to the world. Experience these breakthrough innovations at the

Rotorcraft booth in Hall 8-222.
