Weaving Machinery Major Itema All Set To Display Full Range At Techtextil India 2017

Italain major in weaving machinery, spare parts and services will be exhibiting their ware in the Techtextil India 2017 fair that will be open in Mumbai from September 13 to 15.

Currently, Itema is registering an upward trend in inquiries for advanced weaving machines from weavers of technical fabrics and the Italian technology major with over 180 years of combined expertise from the merger of three historic brands, such as Sulzer, Somet and Vamatex expects that this trend will continue for the foreseeable future.

Focusing on the Indian market, several trade and textile experts identify technical textiles as the market segment of the future since the internal demand is constantly growing reflecting the worldwide trend.

Itema is present in India since 2002, counting more than 50 employees, with sales and after-sales teams, technical support and advanced repair centers in Mumbai, Coimbatore, New Dehli and Ichalkaranji to ensure the highest possible standard of weaving solutions, with a complete offering and service to its valuable customers in the Indian market.

Itema is uniquely positioned to offer technical textile manufacturers the top three weft insertion technologies rapier, airjet and projectile, in what is the most comprehensive portfolio on the market today for technical applications to weave the widest range of fabrics.

The rapier R9500 loom is by far the most successful rapier loom in recent history. The continuous roll-out of customized special versions tailored for technical applications, including OPW airbag, fiber glass, bolting cloth, among others, the wide weaving width up to 540 cm, as well as new and advanced devices make the R9500 by Itema the perfect machine for the manufacture of the full range of technical textiles, including ones with the finest monofilament yarn, multifilament yarn with high tenacity, and multiple pick insertion fabrics.

The airjet A9500 - the most innovative airjet weaving machine in the market - inspires the curiosity and sparks the interest from real technology buffs and has already amassed important references, especially in medical applications and automotive fabrics.

Looking at specific technical applications, the Itema airjet A9500 provides undeniable benefits, matching unparalleled performances and the highest productivity with superior textile efficiency.

The Itema A9500 is pre-set for independent motorized jacquard with no cardan shaft, allowing to weave specific technical textiles (such as Airbag OPW) with no speed limitations.

When it comes to weaving very high density fabrics, the A9500 is customized with dedicated devices to ensure best-in-class results. Key components are reinforced to ensure optimized machine control and reliability whilst Itema patented devices guarantee reduced consumption and superior textile efficiency.

Technical fabrics are the specialty of the legendary and unique projectile P7300HP due to the unparalleled versatility and reliability of its weft insertion system. The unmatchable uniqueness of the positive weft transfer consists in the single insertion driven by the projectile, which catches the weft and carries it directly with no exchanges, providing unmatched efficiency.

The P7300HP continues to harness great interest from projectile weaving aficionados and represents an unbeaten and unbeatable benchmark for those looking to weave the very widest fabrics - up to 655cm weaving width - and high-specialty materials, such as agrotextile, geotextile and carpet backing fabrics. When it comes to weaving tape yarns, the Itema projectile weaving machine provides the highest performance compared to all the other insertion technologies in the market.
