Crealet, developer of electronically controlled warp thread feed systems for wide and narrow weaving machines, will present technologies for the electronic warp feed for narrow and wide weaving machines at the ITMA 2019 expo in hall 4, booth A110. ITMA is the trendsetting textile and garment technology expo, to be held from June 20-26, 2019, in Barcelona.

The two independent companies, Crealet and Rüti Textil, will have a joint booth at the fair. Both are experts in the weaving process with the use of the latest technologies in the field of industry 4.0. Rüti Textil is expert in development tasks of the weft insertion.

Crealet will also introduce the new corporate design, with a refreshed logo. The new design is in line with the evolution of the company with new products and services under the leadership of the next generation of leaders. All areas, processes, and communication channels will be equipped with this new design, but it is impossible to update all at the exact same time, the company said in a media statement.

Apart from the new, fresh appearance the visitors can expect new and inspiring features for optimising warp tension control of small warp beams. Crealet’s core competence are special solutions in warp tension control for narrow and wide weaving machines.

The company develops drives and controls that allow a fast and precise positioning and synchronised movements that support highest dynamics in an intelligent system network. The new LT controller is a control unit for warp tension control. It is suitable for various areas of application where the measurement and control of the warp tension is required. Typical areas of application are the control of small warp beams in ribbon weaving or selvedge bobbins on wide weaving machines. It is also used for warp feeding by feed rollers when weaving from creel. The LT control unit is designed for continuous operation in the textile industry, with features for a quick setting. The LT control unit contains a display which shows measured warp tension, active functions/settings, and display settings in the menu.

A rapidly advancing industrial digitisation and trends like smart factory and the Internet-of-Things are challenges and prospects Crealet will handle together with qualified partners to expand Crealet’s position. A first step in this direction has already been realised with a customer project in the area of safety-relevant narrow fabrics.

Crealet specialises in existing warp let-off devices in narrow and wide weaving machines that no longer meet the requirements of modern, efficient drive and control components. This reduces the amount of work required and improves fabric quality. Crealet’s service benefits in increasing automation of existing machinery, improving reliability, raising quality and productivity, and extending equipment lifecycles.

The company will inform the visitors in detail about electronic let-off and cloth take-up devices, warp beam devices on weaving machines, warp beam stands for one or more warp beams, yarn feeding devices for weaving from creel, and electronic selvedge thread let-offs. (GK)
