Precisely timed to the 12th five-year plan (2011 - 2015) the Lindauer DORNIER GmbH presents itself at the ITMA Asia + CITME 2012, which takes place in June in Shanghai, with two main focuses.

Scientific developments, customized solutions and industrialization of the textile industry for excellent products are one focus and the development of technical textiles and applicable technologies the other one.

The DORNIER system family of rapier and air-jet weaving machines offers any solution required for the production of technical textiles as well as top quality clothing fabrics. The low-strain weft insertion makes it possible to insert extremely sensitive filling threads that are taken up contact less and without guiding elements, passed on and held securely by the positively controlled rapier head until interlacing in the open shed.

With both weaving machines a high or low warp density may be set up thus enabling customers to weave fabrics with very high densities like for example aramide or conveyer belt fabrics as well as fabrics with very low densities like for example open weave or composite fabrics.

In hall E3, stand F01 DORNIER presents its expertise for high-quality weaving. The rapier weaving machine P1 PTS 4/S C, nominal width 220 cm, with a heavy filter fabric for the technical sector and the air-jet weaving machine A1 AWS 8/S G also with nominal width 220 cm for demanding wool weavers in the clothing sector.

Just across from the stand, the company STÄUBLI shows the rapier weaving machine P1 PTS 16/J G, nominal width190 cm, with a premium Jacquard fabric for the home textile sector. DORNIER's new, pioneering and patented drive concept SyncroDrive is one of the significant components of the new DORNIER system family of rapier and air-jet weaving machines.

The significance of DORNIER weave-by-wire will certainly be very clear on this Jacquard machine. An electric control circuit to the separate drive of the Jacquard machine replaces the cardan connection between weaving and Jacquard machines. Realization of dynamic close of shed adjustment while the machine is running meeting the demands from sophisticated weavers will be shown.

“We strive for overall competence in the technical textile sector. This involves our technological know-how for high-value solutions and also the intensive partnership with companies that implement the downstream processes.” This is how Peter D. Dornier, CEO of the Lindauer DORNIER GmbH, sees the range of products for the Asian market, which focuses increasingly on technology and quality.
