Description Overview Nanospider is the most versatile module for high-volume nanofiber production. Designed for ease of use, scalability, and flexibility in the production of the highest quality nanofibers. The 1.6 meter wide electrospinning units are modular, allowing up to four units to be combined into one production line. Combined units result in the capacity to produce tens of millions of square meters of nanofiber materials annually. Technical Specifications Number of electrospinning units: 1 Number of application modules: 2 Modules can also be operated independently with different polymers. Total number of spinning electrodes: 8 (4 per module) Spinning electrode width: 1600 mm (adjustable width 1000 to 1600 mm) Electrospinning voltage: 0 to 140 kV Unwinding speed: 0.2 to 40.0 m/min (depending on the desired nanofiber layer) Distance of the spinning electrode to the substrate: 150 to 250 mm Distance of the wires of the collecting electrode above the substrate: 30 to 130 mm Electrical consumption: 5 kW Machine height: 2930 mm Machine width: 3200 mm Machine length: 2600 mm Weight: 2500 kg Process Parameters Temperature: 20 to 30 °C Humidity: 20 to 40 % RH Hours of operation: 24/7 operation Startup time: typically within 20 min Time required to fill the polymer: 15 minutes Tank volume: 60 litres (2×30 litres) Monthly maintenance allowance: approximately 15 hours (depends on the process) Basic Workplace Requirements Serving staff: 1.5 person/shift Production premises: approximately 200 m² (10×20 m) Minimum ceiling height of 4 m A space with little dust is required. Appropriate exhaust air treatment Dry compressed air Inert gas Ventilation requirements: typically 2500 m³/h for production line + peripherals (for line with one spinning unit)
