FROM REQUIREMENTS TO SOLUTION
The customized transport system
The challenge
Since the beginning of its operations, Zaman Textile Mills has aimed to provide complete and seamless textile solutions, continuously investing in quality, innovative infrastructure, and cutting-edge technologies. To meet the demands of an increasingly competitive market, the company needed to manage its spinning operations in a highly automated and flexible way, while maintaining full control over production flows.
The key objective was to handle bobbin transportation in a flexible and automated manner, adapting the logistics system to production requirements without manual intervention and without slowing down the process.

The solution
To meet these requirements, we designed and implemented a fully customized MTT bobbin transport system, developed step by step based on the plant layout and the customer’s spinning plan. The system connects six FT6D spinning frames with 224 spindles each, located on the first floor, to thirty ring spinning machines on the ground floor, ensuring a high level of automation in bobbin handling between the different departments.
Transport is managed by 83 trains, driven by motorized friction wheels— a solution that provides an optimal balance between flexibility and efficiency. The MTT system is controlled via a 19’’ touchscreen, the largest interface available on the market, featuring customized software and graphics that make operation intuitive and user-friendly.
The layout also includes a dedicated parking area for 16 trains and 40 operational tracks, with a total of 6,500 meters of galvanized steel rails, ensuring operational continuity even at high production volumes.
Completing the solution, the Integrated Bobbin Cleaner (IBC) enables the automatic cleaning of each bobbin in less than 10 seconds, with compressed air consumption below 30 nl/bobbin, representing one of the highest performance levels currently available on the market.
