Zinser 351, 451 Modular Concepts Offer Flexibility

Germany-based Zinser, a subsidiary of Saurer GmbH& Co. KG, also based in Germany, now
offers modular concepts for its 351 cotton and 451 worsted ring spinning machines.The company says
the concepts provide its customers with the flexibility to add features as needed after the initial
purchase of the machine.In developing the modular concepts, Zinser also has upgraded certain
modules including the ServoDraft electronic drafting system drive,CoWeMat to minimize doffing time,
and the Optisuction system for energy-optimized suction of yarn breakage.Cotton spinning concepts
include Zinser 351 for conventional ring spinning with a range of applications and features, and
Zinser 351 C3 for compact spinning using CompACT3 technology. In addition, CompACT3 technology can
be retrofitted on the Zinser 351 + model. CoreSpun and SiroSpun technologies can be incorporated
separately or in combination into the 351 machines, as can Fancy- Draft technology.

that is the basis for Zinser 451 s, which contains spin finger technology, and Zinser 451 C3, which
contains CompACT3 technology.Another option, Zinser 451 sC3, offers a combination of spin finger
and CompACT3 technology. CoreSpun and SiroSpun technologies also can be incorporated separately or
