Building further on nearly 40 years of experience in airjet weaving and over 100,000 airjet machines shipped, the new TerryPlus-i Connect combines this rich heritage with a clear vision of the future.
At Picanol, we believe that in this fast-changing world of weaving, the needs of weaving mills in general and the expectations of our customers and their operators are evolving rapidly. Our market is nowadays driven by an increasing concern for environmental topics, higher costs, and the lower availability of resources and skills, as well as the digital revolution.
That is why the TerryPlus-i Connect – which is based on the OmniPlus-i Connect – has been built around our four leading design principles.
Smart Performance
Picanol machines have always been built for maximum performance, and they always will be. Smart performance focuses on ensuring the highest industrial speeds in the market in combination with top quality. With the TerryPlus-i Connect, the insertion time is optimized with the new generation of sley cams, while the rigid yet extremely light construction of the pneumatical pile backrest guarantees perfect loop formation for even the most complicated terry designs.
Sustainability Inside
The further reduction of energy consumption is not an optional extra – it has to be embedded in the machine design. With its modified relay nozzle distance, the new TerryPlus-i Connect offers more stable insertion and consequently new possibilities for achieving a further reduction in energy consumption, even by automated algorithms. In other words, sustainability is inside.
