A recent comparison conducted in a Turkish spinning mill shows an 18% lower energy consumption for the compact-spinning machine K 48 compared to the competition. For a machine with 1 824 spindles, this benefit equates to an annual saving of around 12,000 USD per machine. This once again demonstrates Rieter’s strong claim for the energy efficiency of compact-spinning technology. The findings are not only important for the success of Rieter and its customers, but also contribute to a more sustainable and economic future for the textile industry.

Wind energy may be one of the more sustainable sources of power available, but the spinning blades of conventional wind turbines require regular maintenance and have attracted criticism from bird lovers.

Getting a wind turbine to a decent height to allow it to reach stronger winds than those found closer to the ground generally means sitting them atop a tower
