PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES AT ITMA
At ITMA, the IMA company will present several new products that can also be viewed at its Palazzolo sull’Oglio headquarters. On display at the fair will be a new line for large productions of rigid materials and in particular jeans. Then, at the Headquarters visitors will find another line for large knitwear productions and, above all, a complete line for mediumlow productions, suitable for today’s Italian and European market (with productions characterized by very low plies or even single ply, with very frequent cloth roll changes, irregular steps with short and jagged spreading).
The technologies that make up the complete line are:
• the 812 – Chronos automatic robot: an absolute novelty, it features a modular structure that can be adapted to the customer’s needs in terms of quantity, size, and weight of rolls to be handled. It uses a chain-driven carousel system for cloth roll handling and management;
• the 890 – Phoenix Dual spreader, which can work both as spreader and unwinder, combining spreading functions with unwinding capabilities;
• the recently renovated 908 – Polaris labelling system;
• the 921 – Tempest Plus cutting machine, the prototype of which was presented at the last Texprocess in Frankfurt: the machine has completed its testing period and is now available for the market.
