Rieter’s RSB-D 50 Autoleveller Draw Frame has achieved a new dimension in productivity, quality and easy operation. The new single-head draw frame generation from Rieter offers an unprecedented level of productivity with the highest quality standards.

Rieter is strengthening its service offering by implementing preventive maintenance packages for use in overhauls of Rieter machines. This new solution ensures customers can order the parts in one package, right when they need them.

The Swiss company Retech’s attention turned always to optimise heating and motor capacity in order to save energy. The whole power of new innovation leads to fulfill this credo and therefore to the optimised godet. To define the right and best suited godet a close collaboration between customer and equipment designer is very important. There is no such thing as an ‘off the shelf’ godet.

The Swiss textile machinery industry is strongly export-oriented and has a presence with its own companies, sales and service organisations in all the world’s key markets. Consistent customer focus, innovative overall solutions and state-of-the-art technologies are the guiding lines, what makes these companies global leaders in their sector.

The year 2017 has started off on a positive note for Italian textile machinery manufacturers. For the first quarter, orders have increased both in Italy and abroad. Says ACIMIT President Raffaella Carabelli: “Orders for the start of 2017 confirm a positive trend in major foreign markets, and a climate of trust for Italy’s textile industry that is on the upswing.”

“In India particularly, Italian sales last year amounted to Euro 135 million, a 3 per cent drop compared to 2015,” says ACIMIT President Raffaella Carabelli, who interacted via email with Samuel Joseph, Editor of Indian Textile Journal.
