Groz-Beckert celebrates success at ITMA Asia with more than 4000 visitors

The sixth ITMA Asia + CITME in Shanghai, China, was extremely successful for Groz-Beckert. Over the course of five days trade fair in October 2018, the company welcomed more than 4,000 international customers and partners to its booth. Approximately three quarters of the customers at the Groz-Beckert booth came from China, as well as guests from India, Japan and South Korea.

The trade fair attracted more than 100,000 visitors in total by its 1,733 exhibitors from 28 countries. These visitors were treated to a wide range of state-of-the-art technology for manufacturing and joining textile fabrics.

Groz-Beckert was represented with all six product areas – Knitting, Weaving, Felting, Tufting, Carding and Sewing – and presented new transparent insights. The still relatively recent WeChat Channel also put the company in the spotlight. Visitors had the opportunity to become a follower directly at the booth and to receive the latest news on Groz-Beckert and the Chinese textile market on their smartphone in the future.

The Groz-Beckert product areas presented their product ranges using the tried-and-tested acrylic glass machines, with some new acrylic glass exhibits. In the Knitting area, for example, a new acrylic glass machine for sock production was added, while the Sewing division presented a new acrylic glass sewing machine.

The Felting (Nonwovens) division showed its staple fiber needle punch line live in Asia – as a 3D print model in 1:18 scale. The original system is available for customers to test in the Technology and Development Center (TEZ) in Albstadt, Germany.

Using the WeavingLoom, a weaving machine replicated in acrylic glass, Groz-Beckert showed heald frames and healds, as well as warp stop motions, drop wires and the PosiLeno® leno system in action. Tufting showed its gauge part system, which impressed with the controlled and coordinated selection of materials and compliance with the tightest tolerances. And the Carding division also presented its clothings on two impressive acrylic glass exhibits, which showed a revolving flat card and a roller card.

The unique transparent insights at the Groz-Beckert booth impressively demonstrated the interplay between the different components in textile machines. They clearly highlight the extremely low tolerances the needles and system parts from Groz-Beckert work in.
