This year’s ITMA Asia + CITME has Karl Mayer offering its innovative solutions for warp knitting, weaving preparation and technical textiles. In the fields of its expertise, the innovative market leader is showcasing its advanced products simultaneously in two places - in hall 4.1. on stand A 30 in the NECC and at an in-house show at Karl Mayer (China) in Wujin, Changzhou.

At the exhibition, visitors can also see an extensive range of products. The focus of the in-house is on the production of lace and an important new development will be setting new standards for multi-bar jacquard machines in terms of the cost: benefit ratio. This new machine is demonstrating its potential by making a fashionable lace for the outerwear market. The first of the machines have already been sold. In, Wujin, Changzhou, the company is also showing a new double-bar raschel machine that produces fashionable shoe designs and a direct warping machine for warp knitting with a new, hybrid operation.

Tricot machines are the focus of the presentation in the NECC. Karl Mayer will be continuing with the generation change that it introduced at ITMA 2015 in Milan. Manufacturers of technical textiles can see some new ideas for lightweight constructions on the company’s stand in Shanghai.

Currently, Karl Mayer is working on a gradual generation change for its HKS machine series which will delight its customers. The company is showing the fourth generation of its HKS 3-M at the exhibition premises. These extensive modifications have focused on the ergonomic machine design and the Kamcos® 2, a completely new automation platform.
