RETECH Aktiengesellschaft of Switzerland will present its latest godet and draw frame technologies at Techtextil 2026, taking place from April 21–24, 2026 in Frankfurt. Visitors can find the company at Hall 12, Stand B01, where RETECH will highlight solutions designed to improve yarn quality and process efficiency in fiber production.
Precision Heat Treatment for High-Performance Fibers
RETECH specializes in the design and manufacture of godets and draw frames used in heated, ambient, and cooled processing stages of synthetic fiber production. These systems enable precise thermal treatment of yarns, supporting stable processing conditions across a wide range of polymers and applications.
The company’s technologies can operate at process temperatures of up to 400 °C, making them suitable for the production of high-performance fibers. A core strength of RETECH lies in its ability to deliver highly accurate and stable control of both temperature and speed, tailored to the specific characteristics of different materials and manufacturing processes.
Induction Heating Technology Enhances Process Control
RETECH’s advanced induction heating systems, available in both single-zone and multi-zone configurations, provide precise temperature control across the entire godet surface. This ensures highly uniform heat distribution and allows manufacturers to influence key yarn properties such as tenacity, elongation, and shrinkage, ultimately contributing to consistent final product quality.
Energy efficiency and durability are central to the RETECH design philosophy. Optimized heating systems, efficient drive solutions, and a robust mechanical structure combine to extend equipment lifespan while maximizing machine availability.
Smart Monitoring for Reliable Operation
An important component of the RETECH system is the UTR-6A non-contact temperature measuring and transmission system, which continuously records temperature data directly from the rotating godet. The data is transferred to the UCR-6 controller, enabling precise regulation and real-time monitoring.
This technology supports preventive maintenance by protecting critical components such as the godet, bearing systems, and induction heater. At the same time, it helps maintain stable production conditions and contributes to improved sustainability in fiber manufacturing operations.
At Techtextil 2026, RETECH will demonstrate how advanced temperature control, intelligent monitoring, and energy-efficient design can support high-quality yarn production and reliable industrial performance across the global technical textiles sector.
