The new corporate headquarters is also a strong sign to present the company as a modern and attractive high tech employer in the region.

China’s Wuxi No. 1 Cotton Mill has recently invested heavily in upgrading all its existing Savio winders with Loepfe’s yarn clearing technology with foreign fibre functionality.

Loepfe is the quality control specialist in the textile industry. In 1955, the two brothers Helmut and Erich Loepfe founded the Loepfe Brothers Ltd in Zurich.

Loepfe Brothers Ltd started business 60 years ago in 1955. Solutions for weaving mills significantly increased the efficiency of the production systems in the 1960s. WeftMaster provides components for weaving machines such as weft stop motions, short weft detectors, weft thread brakes, projectile brakes, knot detectors, weft feelers, fusible fabrics cutters and yarn stop motions for different applications.

In order to monitor an individual thread for finest knots, fluff, filamentation, smallest thick places or even capillary breaks, Loepfe´s newly developed FALCON-i sensor is installed, e.g., before or after a weft feeder.
