As markets are rapidly changing, future proof digital machines, with maximum weaving design flexibility, are paramount. The Bonas Ji and JiL range already dominates the Surat region, the center of saree weaving. Bonas, came with yet another innovation in Jacquard technology. The newest development in this range, the JiXXL, has been displayed at ITME India for the first time and is ready to join this path of great success. Reliability, high productivity, high efficiency, maximum flexibility is now possible with the lowest energy consumption.
Carpet Samples Exhibited
Apart from many traditionally woven carpets on the RCE+ carpet weaving machine, Vandewiele also promoted the digitally controlled RCF machine with Fast Creel, cut-loop machines, and specific machines for weaving light carpets. All have been illustrated by carpet samples.
The digital control of yarns allows the development of new qualities, a higher production efficiency and a closer follow-up of the machine park. Yarn waste is reduced at the highest production speed. Combinations of cut pile carpets with flatweave as well as sisal look carpets have been presented.
Naturally, also the highest carpet qualities in reed 1000 d/m 10 colours, 1200 d/m and 1500 d/m with up to 5.000.000 points/m² have been shown.
In tufting, the digital control of pile yarns (active yarn feed, also called IPD) has allowed Vandewiele the development of high definition Colortec 1/10” tufting carpet in 8 colours – or 1/7” gauge, competing with the traditional Axminster carpets. But also, solutions for plain carpets, artificial grass and Myriad machines for tiles and other applications have highlighted.

On Bejimac side, a new singeing machine for knitwear was developed focusing on highest quality levels of singeing, operational flexibility and economy, as well as tension-free fabric transport through the machine. This new product targets strongly growing demand in knitwear singeing.
For carpets the company presented new autonomous shearing machine, the ATSH. This machine is an example of capacity to listen to customers needs by developing new technologies reducing customer dependency on qualified operators.
Superba, already the leader in heat-setting with saturated steam under pressure thanks to their well-known TVP3, is now offering their hot-air heat-setting solution.
This triple-layer heat-setting process provides an unequaled level of evenness and a highly homogenous fixation characteristic to the yarn, as well as stain resistance or enhanced bulk. The DHS3 line offers a high energy saving process in a reduced floor-space. To complete their range, Superba also introduced their B403 automatic winder.
