Knitting

Knitting

The Warp Knitting product group presents its comprenhensive module portfolio.

By ensuring optimal alignment of functions and tolerances across all components, these solutions deliver high precision, process reliability, and flexibility. Customers benefit from reduced setup times, minimized machine downtime, and consistently high productivity, even in demanding fine-gauge applications.

Weaving

Weaving

The Weaving product area will highlight solutions for demanding technical textile applications, with a focus on high-performance technical reeds. Designed for fabrics with extremely high mesh counts, these reeds enable reliable production for both wire and synthetic materials. Manufactured using state-of-the-art processes and stringent quality standards, they ensure consistent fabric quality and long service life.

The portfolio is complemented by healds and drop wires, optimized for a wide range of technical applications and tailored to meet diverse production requirements.

Nonwovens

Nonwovens

The Nonwovens product area will present innovations designed to improve operational efficiency and process reliability.

Highlights include the newly developed Litespeed™ felting needle – our "one-hit wonder" –that reduces insertion and removal time, extends needle board service life, and minimizes the risk of needle bending. In addition, the Groz-Beckert Needle Dispenser enables automated needle board management and supports more efficient production workflows.

The presentation is complemented by the unique Groz-Beckert Mounting Service for the Nonwovens Carding segment, the new CB-barb felting needle and the staple fiber needle punch line.

Sewing

Sewing

A key highlight in the Sewing product area is INH 2.0 (Ideal Needle Handling). With a fully digital workflow, this next generation of our quality management system enables end-to-end tracking of the needle lifecycle – from stock management and usage to disposal. New modules such as INH@Stock, INH@Routine, and INH@API enhance automation, improve transparency and support compliance requirements.

In addition, the segment will present their SAN™ needle series for demanding applications, including SAN™ 5.2 and SAN™ 6 for high process reliability in technical textiles and heavy fabrics and SAN™ 10 and SAN™ 10 XS for delicate materials requiring maximum protection. The portfolio is complemented by the Litespeed™ needle, developed for heat-intensive sewing processes, ensuring stability at high speeds and in multi-layer applications.

Digital tools such as the “Needle Finder” and the “Groz-Beckert Sewing” video series further support customers with practical, application-oriented expertise.
