Dilo’s entire needlefelt production line at ITMA

At ITMA 2019, DiloGroup will once again exhibit a complete operating production line on a booth space of ca. 1.100 m². This line will illustrate improvements and modifications as well as innovations in numerous machine design-engineering aspects. The complete technological process starting with fibre preparation via card feeding, to precise web forming and the new Hyperpunch Ha needling will be shown. Elements of “industry 4.0” have been incorporated to design the assisting operating system “diloline 4.0”.

In the fibre preparation phase with DiloTemafa components, the “Baltromix Pro” will show a faster blend changeover which is a prerequisite for even higher throughput. An exact control of the filling level avoids idling or over-filling by feeding fibre bales with the aid of a “bale timer”. The sensor module “DI-LoWatt” assures fibre transport with a minimum of air and thus saves energy.

The current universal card feeder VRS-P Vibration Chute is supplemented by a fine opening stage to further improve feeding quality. After the “VectorQuadroCard” the latest version of our high speed crosslapper “HyperLayer” will be included which allows highest throughput at small to medium layering widths and which is especially suited for hydroentanglement lines.

The advantages of the elliptical needle beam kinematics of Hyperpunch technology is even better used in the “Hyperpunch Ha” loom as a very economic version of the classical Hyperpunch technique. The needleloom on show – DI-LOOM OD-II SLHaV – is equipped with the new needle pattern 6000X to give a very homogeneous stitching distribution.
