Asteks will exhibit various solutions at ITMA 2023, including the 401-SF&M cots grinding machine, which provides investment and operating cost advantages to yarn manufacturers, and the new integrated UV-305 Cots’ Surface Treatment Machine by UV.
Asteks, one of Türkiye’s leading brands in the global textile market, will take part in ITMA 2023 to be held in Milan on June 8-14 with its advanced cots grinding and automation solutions. At the exhibition where digitalisation and sustainability will be at the forefront, visitors will be able to see the latest spinning and automation solutions at Asteks booth 102 D in Hall 1. In addition to the well-known apron and cots varieties in the market, the new generation 401-SF&M cots grinding machine and the newest in the portfolio UV-305 Cots’ Surface Treatment Machine will stand out at the Asteks booth. Preparing to share its technological power and innovative R&D vision with the global textile industry at the exhibition, the company focuses on contributing to textile enterprises to meet sustainability criteria and catch the Industry 4.0 revolution.
Asteks Marketing and Sales Manager Sabri İlknur said that the ITMA 2023 is being organised at a time when the global textile industry has entered a growth trend again, and explained that they will make the best use of this platform in terms of the strategic growth plans in exports that they implemented in 2017. İlknur stated that they always focus on offering innovative products to the textile industry and disclosed: “Our aprons and cots, which we have been successfully producing for numerous years and constantly increasing their variety, contribute positively to the operating cost on the one hand and to the yarn quality on the other hand with their high durability and long life. Our technical products have been the biggest help for spinners against the diversification of natural and synthetic fibre types used in the industry and increasing fibre pollution problems. For those who want more efficiency and quality in spinning, we will have innovations and surprises at ITMA 2023.”
Asteks-UV-305 Cots
Stating that Asteks has become a well-known brand in the market as a technology manufacturer in recent years, İlknur announced that the new generation 401-SF&M cots grinding machine will be exhibited at the exhibition. İlknur continued his words as follows: “This high-capacity and fully automated cots grinding machine guarantees productivity, speed and standardised operation for spinners, which has not been possible before. Textile manufacturers coming to our booth from all over the world will be able to see the advantages of this model with two independent grinding units (for the cots for ring spinning frames and roving frames as well as for drawing frames and combing frames) when they examine it closely. I should also mention with great pride and happiness that we will be launching the UV-305 Cots’ Surface Treatment Machine at this exhibition. This technological innovation, which will make a significant contribution to cots’ life and yarn quality, will become indispensable for the grinding departments in spinning mills. Moreover, these two technologies of Asteks offer great convenience for operators and serious cost advantages for businesses with their integrated operation.”
Asteks booth will offer a new perspective on productivity for textile manufacturers
Asteks, preparing for ITMA 2023 in an assertive way, will participate in the exhibition with its most demanded and newly developed aprons and cots. Functional aprons and cots, which overcome the difficulties experienced in this field, taking into account that yarn manufacturers process more synthetic fibres, will meet the market. In addition, new generation cots with late contamination feature for drawing frames, which significantly increase the working comfort of cotton-using enterprises while reducing operating costs, are among the solutions to be exhibited.
Introduced by Asteks with the concept of “two machines built-in one”, 401-SF&M cots grinding machine is a unique grinding machine when investment and operation processes are taken into consideration. This innovative machine, which independently processes the short cots for ring spinning frames and roving frames on one grinding unit and the long cots for drawing frames and combing framess on the other grinding unit, also features advanced automation. Thanks to the Smart Feeding System in the machine, the cots do not need to be sorted one by one, they enter the system automatically and easily. 401-SF&M, with its Automatic Unmanned Grinding feature, automatically performs the diameter separation of the cots to be ground, thus preventing staff-related errors. Representing a new generation of design and efficiency with its technical features, this cots grinding machine optionally makes it possible to work integrated with the UV-305 Cots’ Surface Treatment Machine offering a continuous process from buffing to UV treatment, which will be promoted at the exhibition.
Working with synthetic fibres is now much easier with UV-305
UV-305 Cots’ Surface Treatment Machine eliminates the problems that can be experienced in the spinning of synthetic fibres, which are preferred for their lower cost compared to natural fibres. After the grinding process, the surface of the cots is improved by UV treatment, so that the fibres can easily be processed without wrapping the cots. The machine has a smart feeding system, 4000 Watt irradiation power and continuous operation features. The UV-305, which has a much larger capacity than its counterparts in the market, also enables continuous irradiation of the long cots for drawing frames and combing frames. Thanks to the option in integration with the 401-SF&M cots grinding machine, the cots are got ready for use buffed and UV treated in a continuous integrated process without any operator intervention.
Sabri İlknur said that they expect to meet professionals and decision makers from markets such as Uzbekistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh, where they are already present with their machines, cots & aprons, at ITMA 2023. Stating that in addition to these countries, they want to establish new connections with Vietnam and South American markets, which have high potential, İlknur disclosed: “We expect the investments postponed after the recession experienced in the global market by the pandemic to be realised at ITMA 2023. There will be great interest in automation and digital solutions, especially within the scope of sustainability and Industry 4.0, and as Asteks, we will show how we make a difference in our segment.” Stating that the ITMA provides an ideal platform for them to reach target markets and potential customers, İlknur added that sales and marketing experts as well as technical staff will closely be engaging with the visitors.
