Stäubli – the leading textile machinery manufacturer – will exhibit Magma T12 warp tying machine and UNIVAL 100 single-end control Jacquard machine, at Techtextil 2017, a leading international trade fair for technical textiles and nonwovens, to be held from 9-12 May in Frankfurt, Germany.
The Magma T12 warp tying machine has been developed for technical yarn ties monofilaments, coarse multi-filaments, PP ribbons, bast fibres, coarse staple fibres, and many other fibre types. Its rigid design includes an optical double-end detection system. Another machine, the UNIVAL 100 single-end control Jacquard machine is said to offer more benefits for sophisticated technical textiles, such as automotive and aeronautic textiles, technical textiles in the sports, industrial, medical sectors, and new fabric constructions, even with glass fibre, carbon, and Kevlar.
Furthermore, on display will be a selection of technical fabrics including spacers and multilayers with variable thickness that have been produced in conjunction with Stäubli products, such as TF weaving systems.

The new TF weaving system provides individual system configuration and maximum flexibility. It is designed to offer virtually unlimited weaving possibilities, whether for flat, spacer, or complex multi-layer fabrics and 3D fabrics, the company reports. Featuring latest shedding machines in combination with the double-rapier weft insertion system and a special slaying motion this system is said to allow high-volume production of up to very thick and/or dense fabrics.
