Benninger Makes a Difference with Its Textile Finishing Machines and Systems
In 2019 Benninger had its 160 years anniversary. Thanks to consistent innovation and the continuous improvement and further development of the company products, processes and services, for the past 160 years the name Benninger has stood for textile finishing plants that are particularly resource-efficient.
Typical consumer products such as clothing, home textiles, bed linen and car tires are very often produced with Benninger technology. Benninger machines and systems are also used whenever textiles have to satisfy the highest technical demands, such as those required for airbags, medical textiles or sails.
Benninger offers complete solutions for all major textile finishing processes, with a special expertise in the field of continuous open width processing of woven, knitted and technical textiles with minimum resource consumption. The product range covers the whole textile finishing processes – from Bleaching to Washing, Mercerizing and Dyeing.
Expanded product portfolio in growing markets
In January 2020 Benninger took over LAB-PRO GmbH, a Swiss company, that succeeded in building up a complete range of world-leading technological products for discontinuous wet finishing. Thus the Benninger portfolio has been extended by technologically advanced discontinuous dyeing machines such as Jet and Jigger dyeing machines as well as Beam dyeing and laboratory dyeing apparatus.
Fully automatic chemical, salt, soda or dye dosing systems, which ensure the highest accuracy and reproducibility, complete the portfolio. By combining the know-how and experience of both companies, Benninger is the leading system supplier in the field of continuous and now also discontinuous dyeing and finishing technology.
The company product range is constantly optimized and extended, and the company draws on its tremendous innovative strength, comprehensive technical and process expertise as well as knowledge gained from a large number of projects.
Textile Finishing Process solutions offered by Benninger are extremely innovative and provide customers with significant competitive advantages such as increased productivity and optimized quality, lowest water and energy consumption and highest reproducibility.
Innovative Automation Solutions
All Benninger plants are equipped with innovative automation solutions. True to the principle “trust is good, control is better”, the important operating parameters of the Benninger systems are continuously monitored in a closed control circuit. Particularly quality-critical parameters are forwarded to those responsible by means of modern IoT technologies and an alarm is sounded in the event of limit value violations.
A newly revised maintenance manager provides information about the maintenance status of the system at any time and generates a recommendation as well as a schedule for the next maintenance cycle. Well established management information system BEN-iDATA allows the customer to query all important machine data, the maintenance status and the ecological footprint of the current production batch at any time and from any place.
Last but not least its newly-developed online measurement of the degree of contamination of the washing water helps customers with the optimisation of water consumption.
