PFAFF displays 'Smart Seaming' solution at Techtextil

The large area sewing technology impressively showed that PFAFF INDUSTRIAL has become the technology leader in this segment. The highlight of the trade show was the PFAFF 3590 PORTAL. PORTAL machines are efficient sewing units “Made in Germany” which set the standard when it comes to reliability and process reliability for sewing areas of up to 1200 x 700 mm (under development: 2,000 x 1,200 mm).

The sophisticated sewing technology based on our XXL vertical hook and a unique seam-optimizing system provide the highest seam quality and a perfect stitch quality in multi-directional sewing over the whole sewing area.

A controlled thread nipper for needle and bobbin thread ensures a reliable seam start (with a neat stitch formation) across the entire sewing piece. All complex top-stitch and decorative stitching operations can be mastered with this new PFAFF 3590 portal. The machines are offered as a single- or double needle version.

In the welding-segment PFAFF INDUSTRIAL presented all welding methods (hot-wedge, hot-air, ultrasonic). With the ultrasonic machine PFAFF 8312 CS dual a new ultrasonic solution was presented in Frankfurt. The new machine cuts the edges, seals them and seams a second weld seam as reinforcement IN ONE OPERATION.

The two anvil wheels (one for cutting and sealing and the other one to realize the second weld seam) on one post, but on separate shafts. The two wheels are running in sync but the newly patented solution ensures an individual adjustment of the welding force.

This is an absolute unique selling point (USP) for this technology. The machine may be adjusted better and more precisely to the material at hand and increases the process reliability when welding and cutting to weld seams. The minimum distance between weld seam an cutting is around 1 mm.

After the show is before the show. The preparations for the CISMA in Shanghai (25. – 28.09.2013) are already in full swing. PFAFF INDUSTRIAL wants to present the company as an innovative and competent partner “for the joining of textile materials”.
