For the first time, the Picanol booth at the ITM 2024 exhibition will feature Ultimex Rapier Weaving Machine. The exhibition will be held at the Tuyap Fair Covention & Congress Center in Istanbul from June 04 -0 8, 2024.
The booth will also feature OmniPlus-i Connect airjet weaving machine and other innovations of the digital platform PicConnect. All of these innovations that will be driven by Picanol’s four design principles: Smart Performance, Sustainability Inside, Driven by Data, and Intuitive Control. Together, these design principles enable Picanol’s customers to follow their weaving instincts and get the best possible results.
Picanol’s all-new and revolutionary rapier weaving machine, the Ultimax, focuses on three main benefits: ultimate performance and high-quality output, readiness for the sustainability requirements of tomorrow, and the greatest ease of use thanks to a maximum level of digitalization. In addition, the classic Picanol exterior design of the machine has been radically disrupted in order to make it clear from the outside just how revolutionary the Ultimax is on the inside. The Ultimax excels in the fields of performance and quality, it has been designed with sustainability as the baseline, and the high degree of digitalisation results in a previously unseen ease of use. At ITM 2024, three Ultimax machines will be on display with different shedding motions, different machine widths, and a variety of features. One machine will be weaving denim fabric, another one will be weaving voile, and there will also be an Ultimax Terry.
Picanol will also present an OmniPlus-i Connect airjet weaving machine with SmartShed, weaving double-face. Picanol is centralising its digital tools and services in one new fully digital platform. A corner in the exhibition will be dedicated to PicConnect, tol enable visitors to leverage the full extent of the possibilities offered by Picanol weaving machines. The recently released Picanol machine will boast of features such as integrated machine manuals and tutorial videos, a central weaving styles management system, and enhanced machine stop insights.
