A spindle (Kirman) is a traditional tool for spinning yarn. Historically, it was used to turn natural fibers like wool and cotton into thread. This simple system, which operates on the principle of a rotating shaft and a weight, forms the basis of the modern twisting machines we produce today.
The Place of the Spindle in Turkish History
The spindle was an indispensable part of home production in the Ottoman and pre-Ottoman periods. The machines we produce today symbolize the transition from a domestic economy to an industrial one. We not only modernize this transition but also pay homage to our deep-rooted past.
Our twisting machines, much like the spindle, combine and rotate fibers to create strong, uniform yarns. However, we accomplish this with modern machines that perform at an industrial level with high precision and automation.
In every machine we build, we carry the legacy of that first spindle turned by the hands of Turkish women. Without detaching from tradition, we extend towards the future.
From Tradition to Technology: The Transition to Modern Twisting Machines
For manufacturers like us, the spindle is not just a historical object—it is the root of mechanical principles. Today's high-speed, PLC-controlled twisting machines are the industrial-scale application of the fundamental physical principles provided by the spindle.
