Fadis (Hall
3.0, Booth B08M)
Fadis was founded in 1960 and is present in
more than 70 countries all over the world. With more than 57 years of
experience, the company manufactures 100% Made in Italy textile machines such
as soft winders, rewinders, assembly winders, hank to cone winders, reeling
machines, spooling machines and intermingling machines.
For conventional covering range, the SINCRO
SPRINT model has become the benchmark for spooling with its new concept of a
compact and efficient double side spooling machine, equipped with electronic
yarn guided, precision crossing and independent winding spindles.

The SINCRO SPRINT RFM SW machine offers the
topmost flexibility aimed at future developments and market requirements:
• The electronic yarn guided
precision crossing technology guarantees perfect and uniform yarn laying;
• To keep the same density
between the inner and outer layers of a bobbin, the on-line “Tens Control”
technology has been used in the SINCRO SPRINT model;
• The innovative design is
structured in such a way as to offer the maximum yield, allowing use of different
types of flanged bobbins;
Besides, thanks to the “autocalibration”
technology, it is possible to start the spindle also with flanged bobbins
having already some yarn wound on them. A new concept that allows to recover
residual yarn, that would be otherwise cut off and treated as waste, with
consequent cost saving.
On the SINCRO SPRINT RFM SW Machine, it is
possible to install a motorized unrolling device controlled by an electronic
on-line tension sensor to rewind directly from BOBBIN/FAPP/MUFF/HANK onto
flanged bobbins, thus avoiding an additional process phase.
For air covering range, the SINCRO MULTIPLA
AIRJET electronic yarn guided precision machines have been designed for winding
speeds as high as 1.400 m/min.
The air covering process consists in covering
an elastomeric yarn with other continuous textured yarns. This process takes
place through an air flow controlled by a special jet which opens the fibre of
the covering yarn and closes it around the core (elastane).
Fadis has developed a technology that
allows installing and integrating up to 4 electronic “Tens Control” on-line
tension devices on each spindle. This unique and technologically advanced
technology guarantees a constant and perfect intermingling quality.
Meanwhile, thanks to the installation of 1
electronic “Tens Control” on-line tension device after the intermingling jet
and the second feed roller, it is possible to assure a constant control and
adjustment of the take-up tension, without any manual intervention of the
operator.
70 Italian machinery manufacturers on stage
Around 70 Italian machinery manufacturers
are slated to take part in the upcoming edition of Techtextil. According to ACIMIT,
the Association of Italian Textile Machinery Manufacturers, the number of
exhibitors at the show has grown over the years and it is a testament to the
interest Italy’s textile machinery sector places in the technical and
innovative textiles market.
In recent years, the technical and
innovative textiles industry has seen a great deal of development in many
markets, and especially in Europe, where over 30% of revenue in the textile
industry derives from the production of textiles for technical and innovative applications,
says ACIMIT.
Demand for such products has consequently
also driven a demand for ad hoc machinery specifically designed for this
sector. The offering promoted by Italy’s textile machinery industry is thus
expanding to the new demands of customers operating in this specific sector.
ACIMIT estimates that more than 100 of its
member companies are now working in this sector.
Among the Italian textile machinery
companies on stage at Techtextil, 25 will be exhibiting in the exhibition area
organized by the Italian Trade Agency and ACIMIT (Hall 3.0, Booth B08-B10).
These companies are all ACIMIT associated
members: 4M Plants, Beschi, Bianco, Bombi, Bonino, Canalair, Carù, Cogne,
Cubotex, Dell’orco & Villani, Etv, Fadis, Mesdan, Monti-Mac, Noseda, Pmt
Ribbons, Ratti, Rollmac, Sariel, Saspe, Sicam, Textape, Toscana Spazzole,
Unitech, Zappa.
