#ITMA-Asia + CITME-2012
On-Site Diversity: Groz-Beckert at the ITMA ASIA + CITME 2012
Large markets and increasing requirements
Asia has been the center of the global textile industry for quite some time now. High growth rates have been steadily increasing the size of textile markets – and have been accompanied by a similarly steady increase in demand for quality and precision.
How can the Asian textile industry make effective use of new potential? Which products and solutions increase production efficiency and process reliability? How can ecology and economics best be combined in the textile world?
Groz-Beckert will be providing the answers to these and many more questions at the ITMA ASIA + CITME 2012
The trade-show highlights from Groz-Beckert
In Shanghai, Groz-Beckert will be focusing once more on its main topics from the ITMA 2011. As in Barcelona, statements from satisfied customers and partners will be highlighting the efficiency of the Technology and Development Center (TEZ).
In the Knitting sector, Groz-Beckert will be presenting an entirely new knitting technology featuring the finest knitting cylinders in the world, as well as the finest precision components. These products enable textile production in the ultra-fine gauge E90 – a world record! The spotlight will also be on the Groz-Beckert CylinderMaster, which enables especially simple, reliable and safe cylinder changeovers on single jersey circular knitting machines. And with the Vo-LC™ Groz-Beckert is presenting a whole new needle generation.
In the weaving-machine components sector, Groz-Beckert will be presenting diverse healds, drop wires and high-performance heald frames. In weaving preparation, the focus will be on the fully-automatic drawing-in machine WarpMaster. The KnotMaster increases efficiency during the knotting of especially fine cotton warp.
EcoStar – the new universal felting needle for extreme requirements – is a true highlight in the Nonwovens sector. As the first result of a far-reaching innovation initiative, in comparison with conventional needles it offers users longer service life combined with reduced energy consumption. Jetstrips for hydroentangled products, with process-water analysis included, are another major focus in Shanghai.
Customers in the Tufting sector can look forward to an extended online catalog. Groz-Beckert will be providing information about the increased level of detail plus the optimized search functions, all of which represent yet another improvement in functionality.
In the Sewing sector, Groz-Beckert will be presenting its market-tailored sewing and joining service to industry experts. New potential in the processing of fine materials in the chainstitching sector will be delivered by the needle system UY 128 in LPC geometry (Loop Position Control).
At the ITMA ASIA + CITME 2012 Groz-Beckert will again be providing highlights of diversity for the various textile production and joining methods – whether knitting, weaving, felting, tufting or sewing – and looks forward to welcoming numerous visitors from all over the world!
