China Texmatech eager to set up textile machinery plant in Gujarat

China Texmatech Co. Ltd. (CTMTC), the largest enterprise in China specialized in the import and export of textile machinery and technology, has expressed interest in setting up a high-tech textile machinery plant in west Indian State of Gujarat.

A delegation led by Mr. Wu Xiuhua, Vice President of CTMTC called on Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and expressed its willingness to establish a high-tech project for manufacturing textile machinery.

The delegation also lauded the efforts of Gujarat government in creating an investment-friendly atmosphere in the State.

CTMTC turned into a limited company from state-owned company after gaining the share capital from Jingwei Textile Machinery Co. Ltd. in 2004. Presently the company focuses its business on the import and export of textile machinery and technology, textile products and garments, textile raw material, and contracted engineering.

Over the years, CTMTC’s import and export of textile machinery and technology has expanded from cotton spinning to wool spinning, flax spinning, silk, chemical fibre, knitting, printing, dyeing and many other fields.

Excelle Isoweb TT & ACS Profile face excellent welcome at ITMA

The affluence of customers was huge, even with more customers enhancing active projects.

Many visitors came from India, Pakistan, Middle-East, Gulf countries, North and Latin Americas. The attendance from Europe and Asia was as expected, with a limited number of Chinese customers present at the event.

Several businesses have been concluded during ITMA, names are not available for the moment.

Asselin-Thibeau faced an excellent welcome for the Excelle Isoweb TT card as well as for the ACS Profile crosslappers and the new SDV-2 needleloom for velour applications.

Excelle Isoweb TT card is the inline card solution to obtain 3/1 MD/CD strength ratio on final product, even at high speeds over 250 m/min. Such performance at such speed is really unique and this is why the Isoweb TT technology can be considered as a Revolution…..Read More….

VDMA: BLUecoMPETENCE kick-off in Barcelona

At ITMA 2011 VDMA will present its sustainability initiative BLUecoMPETENCE to the textile world.

BLUecoMPETENCE explains and positions the machinery manufacturers as the technical problem-solvers regarding the requirements of the society of today and of the future: saving energy, material and resources. For the campaign’s kick-off in Barcelona the focus is on energy efficiency. The Technology and Research Advisory Board of the VDMA Textile Machinery Association has compiled the guide “Conserving resources – secure savings-potential”. For textile machinery it describes parameters influencing its energy efficiency and prerequisites for a comparable assessment.

New guide available 
The guide is obtainable at the VDMA-booth (H5-5UL5 – under Linkway). “The guide on energy efficiency shall help to make the discussion about efficiency criteria, CO2 footprint and comparability more objective”, describes Thomas Waldmann, Managing Director of the VDMA Textile Machinery Association the target of the new publication. In a nut-shell, some VDMA positions, based on in-depth engineering knowledge and well-founded analyses are as follows:

Textile machinery is not a consumer good
A textile machine is not a consumer product that is designed for standard applications and comparable user requirements. Even textile machines of a particular product type are usually designed for the different demand profiles of the textile manufacturer.

A large number of influencing parameters determine consumption
There is a large number of parameters that determine the energy efficiency of a textile machine or a textile process. The textile manufacturer, the demands on the textile product, the material, the fibre supplier and the manufacturer of the machines all have an influence on setting those parameters and therefore on the energy efficiency.

Defining balance envelopes and work processes
Nobody wants to compare apples with oranges: The energy consumption of a machine category can only be determined on the basis of an agreed work process or operating point. Statements on energy consumption are therefore only valid for each process under consideration and the defined parameters.

CO2 footprint – also the responsibility of the textile manufacturer 
A statement about energy consumption is only significant in relation to the amount of product manufactured (kWh/kg product). This applies equally to the equivalent of the CO2 footprint (CO2/kg product). A reliable CO2 footprint for the operating phase must take into consideration detailed data about generation of power and thermal energy…Read More
