The FET-100 Series

A significant development is that FET-100 systems can be specified to be multi-functional, allowing for easy and fast conversion between material formats. It configures to all combinations of multifilament, monofilament and melt spinning of nonwoven structures as required.

This highly versatile and flexible system is ideal for research and development, designed specifically for detailed investigation into extruded textile materials. Benefits include substantial savings on cost, floor space and also the ability to add optional equipment in the future.

“High Capability, Multifunctional, Cost-Effective and Flexible”

Multi-Polymer and Multiple Format Capability

FET-100 Extrusion

Central to all FET laboratory and pilot melt spinning systems is the specially developed extrusion module, the FET-100 Extrusion which allows multiple process options. This extrusion module is designed to provide melt spinning capacity to any one of the three downstream process options. The module is mounted on a hydraulic lifting table which permits automated adjustment of the working height.

FET-101 Multifilament

FET offers a wide range of bespoke pilot and laboratory melt spinning systems for continuous multifilament applications capable of matching the demands of all users. Each variation of the FET-101 Multifilament option is uniquely specified and designed for world leading companies and research institutes for a wide variety of applications.

FET-102 Nonwoven

Simple integration of the FET-102 Nonwoven option gives the possibility of melt spinning nonwoven materials. Melt blown and spun bond types can both be achieved on the same base system. This is applicable to a broad range of polymers, including viscous materials normally not appropriate for the melt blowing or spun bond process. Applications include resorbable biomedical polymers and engineering grade materials.

FET-103 Monofilament

Utilising the same extrusion module, FET can also provide specialist laboratory and pilot melt spinning systems for monofilament applications, the FET-103 monofilament. As with multifilament equipment, our flexible monofilament systems are being used by high tech organisations and research institutes on a variety of technical and R&D projects.
