Company
We are a midsize family enterprise, resident in the town-ship Kirschau of the nice Spree-town Schirgiswalde-Kirschau. In tradition, we continue for 25 years the production of cleaning cloths and blankets from regenerated raw materials.
Kirschauer Textil
With the most modern machines of the Maliwatt (stich-bonding-) technology and the expertise of many years’ experience, we produce the most diverse textile specialties. All products are produced predominantly of recycled fibers, and thus make a great contribution to the environment protection. Particularly we pay quiet special attention to the quality.
“Made in Kirschau” is also a cachet which stands for high-class cleaning cloths in many countries. Whether material, color, size or design: we deliver always the product that our customers expect from us.
In 1845 Gotthelf August Friese invented the cloth. Pile canvas and rags were made out of textile industrial waste. Coloured sleep blankets extended the assortment. From this developed an important coarse yarn industry which provided Kirschau with an unexpected economic upswing. Since that time, Kirschau, which is located in the nice “Oberlausitzer Bergland”, was called “the village with the golden roofs”.
Later, the VEB VEGRO Kirschau arose from the association of several textile enterprises. By the production of floor cloths, Kirschau became known far about the borders of the GDR.
The Kirschauer Textil GmbH was founded by Dr. Hans Münzberg and Mr. Dipl.-Ing. Klaus Münzberg in 1992. Today the Kirschauer Textil GmbH, with approximately 80 employees, counts to one of the biggest employers in the town.

The objective of this innovation grant is to conduct a study on the development of an automated bobbin change system for a creel. A key requirement is the implementation of a technology that is both reliable and highly efficient. To achieve this goal, preliminary tests must first be carried out using various fibre materials. Particular attention will be paid to material handling characteristics, including bobbin diameter, package design, tube geometry, and winding type, as these factors play a crucial role in the process. The findings from these investigations will serve as the basis for the overall system design. Detailed concepts for gripper design, feeding technology, material storage, and related components will then be developed and validated through practical testing. Based on the resulting concepts and preliminary trials, a design solution for the automated loading of creels using bobbins will be developed. As part of this study, these topics will be systematically examined, and suitable engineering concepts will be derived from the analysis and testing activities. The resulting technology variants will be evaluated with regard to their advantages and disadvantages, and the key parameters required to assess their technical feasibility will be identified.
