Algodonera Avellaneda
Total control of the value chain for consistent quality
Algodonera Avellaneda is Argentina’s leading producer of textile products and stands as a benchmark for complete vertical integration. The company controls the entire production chain - from cotton harvesting to ginning, from spinning to weaving—ensuring consistent quality, traceability, and operational continuity at high volumes.
To support this highly integrated structure and efficiently manage one of the most critical stages of the process, we partner with Algodonera Avellaneda as a technology provider, delivering reliable, high-performance solutions for the entire spinning area.

The challenge
As the leading cotton ginning company for locally sourced cotton, Algodonera Avellaneda produces over 2,000 tons of raw material per day, part of which is processed internally - together with man-made fibers - into 100% cotton, 100% viscose, and cotton/polyester blended yarns, both carded and combed, as well as open-end yarns.
Approximately 40% of the yarn produced is then transferred to the company’s in-house weaving plant, where more than 400 tons of high-quality fabrics are manufactured each month.
Within such a complex and interconnected value chain, the transformation of raw material into yarn represents a critical stage, where process efficiency, quality, and reliability become decisive factors for the entire production chain.

In a fully integrated production environment such as that of Algodonera Avellaneda, process continuity and reliability are key factors. With this project, we provided technological solutions capable of supporting high production volumes while simultaneously enhancing quality, efficiency, and automation throughout the entire spinning value chain.

The solution
To support high production capacity and ensure consistent performance over time, Algodonera Avellaneda has long relied on our technology for blowroom machines, combers, transport systems, roving frames, and spinning machines. In particular, the company installed our solutions at two different stages.
In 2015, the company expanded the plant with the addition of a seventh spinning module, consisting of:
In 2017, Algodonera Avellaneda upgraded the blowroom line by installing the B380L cleaner, together with additional machines for the opening section.
The B380L is equipped with two beaters arranged in series, supported by four carding segments, followed by adjustable knives with flaps that allow progressive and highly effective opening and cleaning of the raw material, replacing traditional gripping systems.
In 2015, the company expanded the plant with the addition of a seventh spinning module, consisting of:
- 1 FT6D roving frame with 192 spindles,
- 5 MPTN ring spinning machines with 1,056 spindles each, featuring touchscreen settings,
- an MTR bobbin transport system, complete with exchanger and Integrated Bobbin Cleaner (IBC).
