The right product to the right market, and what is most important, at the right price is the prime policy of ATE Marketing Private Limited, Mumbai in India. The Karl Mayer being in textile machinery field from 1937 earlier for warp knitting machines and later in 1991, for warp beam preparation machines has become pioneer in these field. ATE has recognised this excellence of Karl Mayer machines and has presented it to its esteemed customers from several decades.
Karl Mayer has always manufactured its machines with most modern technology and sound engineering so as to serve the customers, with machines having excellent productivity and quality.
Karl Mayer will be presenting its range of innovations at ITMA 2007 from the areas of:
1. Machines for producing warp knits and specials (Stand A2/315).
2. Lace machines (Stand A2/315).
3. Machines from Karl Mayer Malimo (Stand A2/315).
4. Warp preparation machines (Stand B6/305/400).
5. Data management (Stand A2/315).
Machines for producing warp knits and special fabrics:
RSE 6 EL: This machine is based on the tried-and-tested basic concept of the RSE series. The speed that the RSE 6 operates is up to1400 rpm, which is 75% faster than its predecessor. The RSE 6 EL version with electronic guide bar control will be on show at the trade fair in a gauge of E 24 and a working width of 130".
High-speed tricot machines: In the sector of high-speed tricot machines, the Karl Mayer Group will be illustrating for the first time the two-product line strategy which it intends to implement in the future. Karl Mayer has successfully removed the restrictions on using the machine placed by the wide working widths and high gauges. The key to this success was to use carbon-fibre-reinforced composites (CFRP).
HKS 2-3 E: By using CFRP materials on the HKS 2-3 E and revising the design of the machine, Karl Mayer has succeeded in increasing its performance by as much as 22% compared with its predecessor. This level of productivity remains constant, even at the high gauges of up to E 40, and guarantees excellent fabric quality.
HKS 3-M: The HKS 3-M has been changed over to the concept of using CFRP materials in time for ITMA, and this has led speed has been increased by up to 35% compared to its predecessor.
TM 3: This machine has a completely new design with its excellent price/performance ratio, is designed to cater for the market specialising in non-stretch fabrics. The special technical feature includes a working width of 186" max, a simple KAMCOS® system, ie an operating concept with no internal or external networking possibilities, and specific optional features.
Lace machines:
The Karl Mayer Group is injecting even better performance, creativity and economic viability into the lace machine sector in the form of its Textronic® Lace TL 43/1/24, which leaves nothing to be desired in terms of the high-quality relief lace that it can produce.
Textronic® Lace TL 43/1/24: Karl Mayer's new Textronic® Lace machine features many new improvements in terms of its performance, and its productivity has been increased to maximum levels whilst producing a textile product of consistently high quality. The TL 43/1/24 can reach speeds of up to 600 rpm, which represents an increase of 20% compared to the low-bar Textronic® Lace machine available on the market.
RSJ 5/1 EL: With its new EL system and the tried-and-tested piezo jacquard mechanism, the RSJ 5/1 EL enables specific functional zones to be worked into the textile. Ground guide bars GB 5 and GB 6 operate shog paths of up to 170 needles to ensure that these zones are in the right location and have the required size.
Warp preparation machines
GOM 24: The GOM 24 is designed for the production of sample and production warps in lengths of up to 1,050 m, and thus complements the production repertoire of the other two models in the sample warping machine range. The GOM 24 has been improved even further and its production rate has been increased by 30% compared to the next machine in the range, and it has been equipped with a number of clever, technical features to achieve this.
Nov-O-Matic: This new automatic section-warping machine can produce short and production warps in lengths of up to 2,000 m. It has a compact, space-saving design, and a construction that is intended to provide an excellent price/performance ratio. The new warp preparation machine uses Karl Mayer's tried-and-tested leasing system with its optimised technology.
Beaming machine: Its range of beaming machines for sizing and assembly beaming and for producing warps directly from a creel, and this features a number of innovative solutions. This decreases the amount of the space needed to control system, reduces assembly times considerably, and eliminates possible sources of error.
Smart Beam: Smart Beam is the name of a process for which Karl Mayer has filed a patent, for reliably transferring data during the production process. The system involves fitting the warp, knitting and direct beams with RFID transponders carrying all the information needed during the subsequent production processes.
Data management
As far as data management is concerned, the developers at Karl Mayer has been concentrating on the concept of integration through networking and data transfer via open interfaces. The use of the KAMCOS® OPC interface can be demonstrated very impressively using the Knit master module from Barco.
OPC interface for the KAMCOS system
Openness, Productivity, Collaboration Server (OPC) can be installed on any KAMCOS® machine with a network interface and permits real-time access to the main machine data. and other specific analyses. The specific functions of this system will be on view live.
The integrated fabric scanner
The fabric scanner can be used for analysing the quality of the fabric surface and has been available for many years. What is new, however, is that it can now be integrated into the data network of the KAMCOS® system via Ethernet access.
