In an ever-changing world, the needs of the weaving mills as well as the expectations of the operators are evolving rapidly. The increasing awareness regarding environmental topics, increasing costs and the availability of resources and skills, as well as the digital revolution, will push us in new directions.
For this reason, Picanol products are designed with a focus on four principles: Smart Performance, Sustainability Inside, Driven by Data and Intuitive Control. As a proof of its commitment to these four principles, Picanol will present its latest developments in rapier and airjet technology. When it comes to rapier technology, Picanol once again sets the benchmark in various aspects. It will deliver the proof, on a denim application, that a machine can be performant, versatile, sustainable, digital and user-friendly at the same time!
