IQ-SPS, a German wide weaving machines manufacturer, and CREALET AG, a Swiss developer of electronically controlled warp feed systems for weaving machines, will present their synergy in terms of products, services and market position at the Techtextil trade fair that takes place from 9-12 May in Frankfurt.

According to CREALET, the two companies have the necessary know-how to modernise or overhaul weaving machines. “The engineering department is constantly creating innovative products in the field of electronically warp feeding from beams or weaving creels for existing or new wide and narrow weaving machines as well as warp knitting machines,” the company explains. Special developments were even realized in the feeding of carbon fibres.

Upgrading machines

The core business of both companies is the upgrading or overhauling of weaving machines. IQ-SPS and CREALET bring their expertise on adapting and upgrading machines and their warp control systems to Techtextil so that customers get a customised application specific machine.

“Upgrading of existing machines or the purchase of used machines does not mean a sacrifice on quality. Quite the opposite: used and generally overhauled machines are often of higher quality and not so prone to breakdown as new models,” the company reports.

The know-how of the two companies is said to ensure high-quality solutions and added value for customers, which is required for success in this highly competitive market.
