Picanol’s next generation of OmniPlus-i Connect
At the end of 2025, Picanol launched the next-generation OmniPlus-i Connect, which set a new benchmark in airjet weaving technology. This latest evolution of the trusted platform demonstrates how Picanol continues to deliver innovative, performance-driven solutions to meet the evolving challenges faced by modern weaving mills.
Thanks to a complete redesign and optimisation of key machine components, Picanol achieved an impressive energy saving of up to 1.5 kW per machine. This breakthrough innovation, which is called EcoBoost, has drastically reduced the energy consumption of weaving machines, making it a real game-changer for customers who focus on realizing sustainability and cost control. At ITM 2026, the OmniPlus-i Connect will be demonstrated while weaving poplin fabrics.
