Excerpts…

For Sabar, what do you think are the achievements since its inception?

Sabar was established in the year 1969 with the inception of standard cot grinding machine. Over the years, Sabar has subsequently introduced mechanical high production cot grinding machine, extended standard cot grinding machine for jute spinners, semi-automatic cot grinding machine, automatic cot grinding machine, 400/AF twin automatic cot grinding machine, 800/2AF twin automatic cot grinding machine and the most latest 400/AF twin automatic cot grinding machine with pre diameter check and servo controlled.

Apart from cot grinding machine, Sabar has introduced many other worthy products like eccentricity and taper tester, fluted roller truing machine, top roller greasing machine, top roller degreasing machine, UV top roller treatment machine, online automatic UV top roller treatment plant, spindle lubricating machine, hydraulic cot mounting demounting machine, flyer cleaning machine model Air-O, clearer roller cleaning machine, bobbin roving end opening machine, spindle centering device, to name a few. Many other developments are in pipeline and hence Sabar has always striven to achieve the most result oriented and worthy machines for textile spinners.

How does Sabar meet the challenges of today? Give details of its latest machines and developments.

We, as a Sabar team, always strive to give the most user friendly and result oriented machines for our customers. Sabar engineers’ frequently visit textile spinners and try to take out the problems faced at floor level. By taking several feedbacks, we invent design.

The latest development at Sabar is the 400/AF twin automatic cot grinding machine with pre diameter check and fully servo controlled. In this model, customer can get production of both small and long cots simultaneously without interchanging any grinding attachment. Besides for small cots section, they will get additional benefit of pre diameter check of cots. Hence the cots, which are outside the predetermined range, will be rejected automatically. This will help in achieving uniform grinding.

Sabar is one of the leaders in spinning roll shop machinery. What are the advantages and benefits of these over that of other competitors?

Sabar is the pioneer of spinning roll shop equipment. Till date, more than 3,000 machines are installed across 26 countries in the globe. After such heavy installation, Sabar got various feedbacks from the end users, and due to which, the design, input material, grinding accuracy and all other relevant parameters are developed after utmost care. Hence end users are getting the quality results, which are way more superior than other makers due to which Sabar is sustained in the industry since 1969.

How do you look at the textile machinery market in India?

Textile machinery market in India has a lot of potential as India as it is one of the dominant countries that hold great contribution in the field of textile. Textile machinery maker has always a bright future.
