Superba and Suessen Heat Setting Technology
topic
Superba TVP and Suessen Fiosco continuous yarn heat setting systems feed yarn in relaxed skein or loose coil form through steam-heated pressure chambers at 120 to 140 degrees Celsius for carpet and bulked continuous filament yarns, setting the bulked yarn configuration in the fully relaxed state that maximises bulk retention after setting, producing thermally stable carpet yarns that maintain their bulk and tip definition through carpet construction and use conditions.
Role
Produces the thermally stable bulked carpet yarns that maintain their engineered bulk and twist geometry through tufting, dyeing, and service conditions through the continuous relaxed-tension heat setting that sets yarn bulk in the maximum volume configuration, with Superba and Suessen processes being the industry standard for BCF carpet yarn heat setting where bulk retention and tip definition consistency are the primary commercial quality requirements.
