Van de Wiele: A leader in carpet weaving machines

Being the leading manufacturer in carpet weaving machines worldwide, Van de Wiele owes its customers to constantly strive for innovation and quality in its machines. This drive for innovation has lead to the development of servomotor technology, 5m wide weaving, 3 rapier weft insertion, reed densities of 1000 dents per m in up to 10 colours and cut-loop qualities in density up to 500 dents per m.

Now, tufting machines are added to the portfolio of carpet machines. Through the acquisition of Cobble, Van de Wiele wants to put its know how gained from weaving into tufting machines by bringing innovation through creativity from weaving to tufting.

Smart Creel Carpet

For Axminster and Wire weaving, Van de Wiele provides the automated Smart Creel where traditional bobbins are replaced by binsets in which the yarn is stored according to the order size. This automated system reduces labour cost, saves raw material and makes shorter production runs economically beneficial. SCC75, the auto-mated carpet creeling solution for Smart Weavers.

Van de Wiele extrusion

A new area in which Van de Wiele is investing is extrusion. Van de Wiele believes that there are two ways of adding val-ue to the carpet: on the one hand there is the weaving and tufting technique and on the other hand the quality of the yarn. The better the yarn quality, the better the carpet.

Van de Wiele velvet

Van de Wiele is proud to present the next generation of velvet weaving machines: the Velvet Smart innovator. This new VSi range is the result of a customer based demand towards high flexibility, faster running speeds and full electronic control of the weave process with the ultimate goal to allow velvet weavers to react immediately to changes in the market and always stay one step ahead.

With the VSi, Van de Wiele brings its technological experience gained from carpet weaving machines combined with the needs from the velvet industry to this new velvet weaving machine range where flexibility, reliability and full electronic management is key.

Smart Creel Velvet

Today, velvet weavers have to combine high design free-dom and a diversified product portfolio with low production cost and shorter production runs. When combining the VSi32 with the Smart Creel for Velvet SCV75, those needs are met. On top of that, manpower is saved, raw material wastage is kept to a minimum, colour changes are executed during weaving and the next production run can be prepared without ever stopping the machine.
