Jakob Muller AG, a leading company in manufacturing of woven and knitted tapes and webbing, technical textiles, printed narrow fabrics, dyeing, make-up, and winding machinery, is set to show new fabrics and knitting machinery at Techtextil 2017, international expo for nonwovens, to be held in Germany, from May 9 to 12, 2017, in hall 3, level 0, stand B19.

The company will show the NH2 53 2/130 S2, the electronically controlled, narrow fabric needle loom for light- to medium-weight, elastic and non-elastic narrow fabrics with unlimited repeat lengths. The machine, which offers virtually unlimited repeat lengths, will be shown producing a bag tape with woven-in drawstring. As a result of the electronic shed formation possessing patterning possibilities employing up to sixteen electronically controlled heald shafts, a variety of bags in differing sizes can be produced on every machine space.

Jakob Muller will present the COMEZ ACOTRONIC 8B/600, an electronic crochet knitting machine using compound needles for ribbons, technical, and medical articles, at the expo. Compound needles make the machine highly versatile, as in addition to classic synthetic yarns (polyester, polyamide), they also allow the processing of natural yarns (cotton, wool) and special fibres (Kevlar, fibre glass, carbon, basalt) in the warp.

The COMEZ ACOTRONIC 8B/600 is fitted with the colour touch screen data control controller, which manages all essential machine functions, monitors production data, and enables the realisation of lengthy pattern repeats.

The company will also present the UV60-W automatic and winding machine for the measuring and winding of belts, safety belts, narrow fabrics, and tubular goods. Coreless rolls are wound from the start of the belt and the end can be fixed with a metal clip. Rolling from the middle of the belt is also possible with the result that both belt ends are free for further processing. The machine is also suitable for the cutting of belts to length alone.

At the fair, the machine will be shown for the first time with a new five-compartment tool changer. The tools sit on a rail and are quickly and precisely positioned over the belt using SPS control. As a result, the UV60 offers a vast range of make-up possibilities. The mature and practically tested concept is characterised by high levels of operational and service friendliness, as well as compact design. Automatically applied markings also facilitate further processing. Stored product parameters can be called up easily and permit quick and straightforward machine setting or adjustment. (GK)
