SSM showed nine new product launches for the first time in Asia at the ITMA Asia in Shanghai, China from 21st – 25th October 2016. Large interest was generated by the SSM X-Series which had their world premiere. SSM was very pleased by the high response. This year’s show attracted over 100’000 visitors from 102 countries and was therefore the largest showcase in the series since its launch in 2008.
The Swiss based SSM AG, the inventor of the electronic yarn traverse system, exhibited six machines showing nine new product launches for Dye Package / Rewinding, Assembly Winding, Air Texturing and Sewing Thread Finish Winding.

For the first time ever, SSM presented their X-Series. The machines (TWX-W/D, PWX-W and PSX-W/D) are the most economized winding solution, reduced to the max yet maintaining highest flexibility for any cost efficient winding application. From SSM GIUDICI came the DP5-T which was exhibited in a special single-execution showing fancyflex™ for the production of slubs and thick & thin effect yarns.

The SSM DURO-TD precision assembly winder for coarse technical yarns up to 50000 dtex offers a new level of flexibility and package quality in one machine; thereby ensuring optimal unwinding and running performance in all twisting processes.

Undoubtedly the XENO-platform with the enhanced DIGICONE® 2 winding algorithm, enabling a 10-20% increase on dye package density with same dyeing recipe, attracted the largest attention. Finally the SSM TK2-20 CT / KTE a finish winder for sewing threads concluded the range of machines shown in Shanghai.

Besides the showed applications, SSM can provide solutions for False Twist Texturing, Air Covering, Draw Winding, Yarn Singeing and Conventional Covering. Detailed information about textile machines with leading technology is available on SSMs Webpage.
