The knitting product division will be presenting several new products at India ITME. Among these products are the SAN SF staple fibre needle and the SNK SF staple fibre sinker, which are specially designed for use on large circular knitting machines. The division will also be exhibiting the SAN TT for application-related use in the field of technical textiles for flat knitting machines, as well as a needle which enables the advance into new dimensions of gauge in the flat knitting sector, according to a press release by Groz-Beckert.

Groz-Beckert will also be demonstrating its competence as a system supplier in the field of warp knitting at the India ITME. The warp knitting machine needles and system parts from Groz-Beckert are precisely matched to one another and achieve a uniform and flawless warp knitting process.

With the WarpMasterPlus and the KnotMaster, the weaving product division presents the latest generation of drawing-in and knotting machines from Groz-Beckert. They are particularly distinguished by their ease of operation and flexibility.

The product area felting (nonwovens) presents its product and service highlights for the nonwovens industry. These include the HyTec P jet strip for spunlace customers as well as the GEBECON felting needle, the dur needle, EcoStar felting needle, and the Groz-Beckert customer product. The HyTec P-nozzle strip is characterised by improved handling and higher hardness. The patented GEBECON felting needle offers an improved surface finish and optimised breakage bending properties.

The carding product area will present its further developments for the spinning industry. These include the new stationary flat series, the TV56 revolving top, and the cylinder wire set with special tooth geometry. The new stationary flat series is characterised by an innovative tooth geometry and a new type of tooth distribution.

The new TV56 revolving top with its setting pattern and 560 points per square inch is particularly easy to clean. The improved cylinder wire convinces with its special and patented tooth shape, which has a positive effect on the maintenance effort. This makes it particularly suitable for quality-oriented cotton spinning mills producing high-quality yarns. Visitors can also look forward to the new InLine card clothing series for the nonwovens sector.

In the sewing exhibition area, the focus is on technical textiles—in particular the manufacture of car seats. The answer to the high demands of sewing car seats is the special application needle SAN 5.2 from Groz-Beckert. The special geometry gives it sufficient stability. The double groove at the point improves thread guidance and leads to a uniform seam pattern, especially in multidirectional sewing processes. The scarf chamfer on both sides of the needle prevents skipped stitches and optimises loop formation. The wear protection is increased by the titanium nitride coating GEBEDUR. In addition, the quality management INH will be exhibited, and the functions and contents of the customer portal will be presented.
