Jakob Müller has introduced its new air-jet label weaving machine. The MBJL6 facilitates the efficient production of labels, images and technical narrow fabrics with cut selvedges. It is ideally suited for top production performance and is designed to allow easy access to all the important machine components and control elements.
Shedding takes place using an electronically controlled SPE3 1536 jacquard machine with patented bottom shed read-in. The jacquard machine is mounted directly on top of the basic machine, reducing the space required to a minimum. Additional advantages include a machine height of 3.65 m and its low weight. The new air-jet weaving machine can manufacture more labels per hour in a production area of only 2.05 m by 4.25 m and a reduced building volume.
The careful handling of the warp and weft material during production allows for top speeds and optimum efficiency. The warp is provided on a warp beam with a maximum diameter of 800 mm. A controlled warp let-off system with a servomotor ensures quick and simple setting of warp thread tension.
Weft insertion takes place using standard main, acceleration and relay nozzles. The main nozzle is designed for the insertion of eight weft threads. The number of weft threads per centimeter can be adjusted via a torque motor. This electronically controlled fabric take-off allows the number of weft threads within a repeat to be varied between 18 picks per cm and 120 picks per cm.
