Heberlein is promoting its APh and APe DTY interlacing jets in China, highlighting compressed-air savings, Air Covering capabilities, and faster local technical support from a new Shengze City service hub.
APh and APe DTY jet series reduce compressed-air consumption by up to 10% and 15% respectively while maintaining yarn quality.
Air Covering using Heberlein jets is targeted at leggings, sportswear, underwear, hosiery, socks, jeans and medical/compression textiles where stretch and surface properties matter.
A Shengze City service hub opened in August 2026 to deliver local technical support, fast-response visits, minor maintenance, and on-site testing.
Heberlein, a Swiss supplier of air interlacing and air texturing jets for synthetic filament yarns, is deepening its engagement in the Chinese market. The company is promoting two DTY jet product families — the APh-series and APe-series — and has opened a service hub in Shengze City to bring technical support closer to customers.
Compressed air is a significant operating cost for yarn producers. Heberlein positions its DTY jets on the basis of reduced compressed-air consumption without sacrificing yarn quality. The APh-series is reported to cut air use by up to 10% on a comparative specification such as PES dtex 330f96. The APe-series has shown reductions of up to 15% in tests. Heberlein states that the new jets typically pay for themselves within 18 months through lower operating costs.
Air Covering is a primary application for Heberlein's DTY jets in China. The process uses controlled air jets to interlace an elastane core with a covering yarn at regular intervals. That produces integrated yarns that combine stretch, comfort and improved surface properties while remaining easy to process in knitting and weaving.
Heberlein highlights two performance points for the APh-series: higher knot stability or reduced compressed-air consumption depending on configuration. The APe-series also promises notable air savings while maintaining yarn quality.
Since August 2026 Heberlein has run a service hub in Shengze City. The facility is equipped to provide quick-response service visits, minor maintenance, and cleaning. Tools onsite include a portable air generator, an ultrasonic cleaning system, an airflow meter and an air splicer. These capabilities support practical onsite testing, troubleshooting and faster implementation of solutions during product trials.
Martin Zuercher, CEO at Heberlein, is quoted as saying the hub was opened to provide faster response times, stronger technical support and closer customer interaction.
Heberlein's technical claims focus on reducing a key operating cost for spinners while keeping yarn performance intact. The local service hub is designed to speed adoption by shortening the feedback loop between trials, adjustments and production runs.
