In addition to the latest innovative jet and yarn software, visitors also learned how they can increase their level of automation with the ColorMasterConnect or TEXconnect software solutions and how the controls can bring their application to the highest standard and thus boost their productions to a new level.
The new Sedomat 8000 series was developed for such smart factory
The new Sedomat 8000 series was developed for such smart factory applications and has all the advantages of the established Sedomat controllers.
With internal Wi-Fi, RFID, flexible fieldbuses and a large number of internal and external inputs and outputs, it offers a wide range of connectivity options as well as advanced options that can be connected more efficiently than ever before and maximize flexibility in software selection. The powerful controller thus offers an impressive user experience and hardware at the highest level. With these advantages, the new generation of controls is also suitable for use in rough production environments and meets maximum quality standards with maximum convenience.
An integrated PLC is already included in the it. A wide variety of requirements from yarn, piece and other dyeing machines can additionally be realized via optional internal and external in- and outputs. The integration of SedoMaster and other dyeing systems using e.g. Ethernet, OPC UA and MQTT also ensures sustainable and competitive production, which optionally also supports RFID and is therefore suitable for data acquisition or as a production terminal. Altogether, the Sedomat 6007 series offers users a cost-effective control solution that provides the highest quality and reliability to meet all requirements in Industry 4.0.
TEXconnect Allows Users to Use it on any Device and on Different Operating Systems
TEXconnect, as a cloud-based platform for the textile industry is easy to set up and offers the most common functions of it on-site “master” systems at a low investment cost. In addition, ColorMasterConnect, as a web-based color management software, allows users to use it on any device and on different operating systems.

It reduce water consumption by 70%
“We’ve combined economy and ecology in one groundbreaking innovation,” said Werner Volkaert, managing director of Sedo Engineering. “Denim brands and textile factories can move towards this sustainable production structure easily and with more benefits at a lower cost. It is a win-win solution for our clients, their employees, and consumers.” Using electricity instead of toxic chemicals to dissolve indigo dyes can not only make a big environmental and economic leap, but also reduce water consumption by 70%, for example by eliminating the need to dilute wastewater.
To date, more than 20 SmartIndigo machines are already installed at leading denim producers, helping them to achieve a cleaner production. Some of them have already ordered the second or third machines, seeing the success of their new installation. Also, they are happy with the intensity shading and their economical payback. SmartIndigo technology is BlueSign approved system partner and ZDHC level 3 certified.
