Comerio Ercole, a well-known Italian company founded in 1885 and manufacturer of industrial machines and plants for its department dedicated to the design and manufacture of high-performance calenders for the nonwovens industry, in cooperation with STP Impianti, an Italian company founded in 1985 and a manufacturer of complete spunmelt plants, presents a recent technological combination aimed at the continuous production of spun PET and/or bico PET products.

The STP Impianti spunmelt spinning plant BICOPET is equipped with the innovative and patented 3-roll Duetto calender, preceded by the innovative high-speed thermosetting unit Thermofix, both new Comerio Ercole technologies for energy saving optimization.

The new configuration of the BICOPET plant and in particular the 3-roll Duetto calender will be presented during the INDEX23 exhibition in Geneva, April 18-21 (stand no. 1122).

Riccardo Comerio, CEO of Comerio Ercole, is proud of this new recent and innovative realization in the nonwovens field for industrial use. Roberto Marcora, nonwovens area manager, underlines how the results obtained are the success of extensive experimentation carried out in the company laboratories and awaits all interested parties at INDEX23 to present the successful Comerio Ercole production and engineering platform and the new 3-roll Duetto calender.

The main target of BICOPET plants involves the production of thermobonded PET spunmelt and flat bonded bico PET spunmelt.
