Profitable airjet weaving

The OMNIplus-X continues to build on the well-known OMNIplus 800 platform. The options and features have been carefully selected so as to give the perfect balance between price and performance. The OMNIplus-X is equipped with all elements essential for weaving: full electronic control, SUMO main motor and microprocessor-controlled filling insertion. The machine is specially designed to weave a wide range of styles, from light to dense. The integrated electronics keep all drives perfectly synchronized, for unmatched fabric quality. Operation has been kept simple, with maximum automation to stay...

ELECTRONIC TAKE-UP AND LET-OFF The integrated machine concept ensures the main drive is fully synchronized with all the other electric motors, such as the Electronic Take-Up (ETU) and the Electronic Let-Off (ELO). Both are fitted as standard on the OMNIplus-X to ensure balanced warp tension during weaving. AIR TUCKING This unique feature offers great ease of setting and maintenance. Tucking-in no longer places any limitation on machine speeds, unlike mechanical tucking. POSITIVE SHEDDING MOTION The OMNIplus-X always uses positive driven cam or dobby shedding motion devices in order to ensure the...

DOUBLE TAKE-UP AND BACKREST ROLLERS These are fitted as standard. This enables the highest density fabric to be woven without any risk of fabric marks. The modular system can switch to single rollers to create a dynamic, fast-reacting backrest for lighter fabric styles. This gives flexibility to meet all market demands. your market

ROBUST STRUCTURE Proven Picanol design. Two solid side frames connected by largesection crossbars, with the sley driven at both sides by conjugated cams. This affords the required machine stability and the highest beat-up force, making it possible to weave any kind of fabric successfully. The machine does not have to be bolted to the floor, so the weaving room layout stays flexible for future expansion. DEDICATED SLEY CAM Makes it possible to weave the most demanding fabrics and yarns, thanks to optimization of the available insertion time. PROGRAMMABLE FILLING TENSIONER Reduces the peak tension...

SUMO MAIN MOTOR Assures the fastest machine start-up, with start-up behavior remaining stable in time. This technology is superior to any other drive system. Speed is adjusted manually at the touch of a button (standard feature) or automatically to ensure the highest production rate according to the filling presented. The SUMO is a must to achieve highest fabric quality. your material

UNIQUE DOUBLE AIR TANK The optimized pressure setting for acceleration and stretching of the yarn has a positive effect on the overall air consumption. FIXED AND MOVABLE MAIN NOZZLES The most efficient main nozzles. Adaptable to all types of filling yarn. MULTI-HOLE RELAY NOZZLE Best performance/consumption ratio available on the market. As this nozzle also has the highest traction force, it is no longer necessary to compromise on weaving speed. The relay nozzle valves are positioned very close to the relay nozzles, to minimize pressure losses. Each valve only supplies two nozzles, to reduce the...

SUMO MAIN MOTOR This highly efficient main motor permits speed changes without the additional consumption for a frequency convertor (there is no FC). The short drive further ensures low power consumption (fewer gears). Recuperation of brake energy (between SUMO main motor, electronic let-off motor, electronic take-up motor and machine electronics) is possible thanks to a shared, integrated power supply. Elimination of clutch and brake system reduces the power consumption by another 10%. Finally, the lower heat dissipation means less air conditioning is required. your energy

ELECTRONIC FILLING Maintenance-free. The cutting time is set electronically and forms part of the integrated controls. Mechanically the cutter moves on the same support as the temples, for easy width changes. ELECTRONIC WASTE CUTTER ^^^H Maintenance-free and can be set with just 1 screw. Makes it very easy to set the maximum possible production speed for a given style. ELECTRONIC SPEED Machine speeds can be set and adjusted on the machine display. Changing the speed can be done in real time using Multispeed. This makes it very easy to set the maximum possible production speed for a given style....

FORCED LUBRICATION The high-pressure oil pump brings oil from the central reservoir to machine parts that require constant lubrication. The oil is constantly filtered and the pressure constantly monitored, assuring long lifetime for crucial machine parts. Centralized lubrication is far more reliable then splash lubrication. As for maintenance, the oil can be changed very quickly as all the oil can be taken from the central reservoir. AUTOSPEED Adapts the machine speed to the behavior of the filling yarn. Information from the filling detector is centrally processed, and if conditions permit the microprocessor...

E-LENO Rotary leno with left-to-right crossing timing set independently by the microprocessor: a guarantee of maximum flexibility in setting. FIX-A-MARK Avoiding starting marks has never been easier. All available functions and tools have been brought together in the Fix-A-Mark overview screen. The user can adapt the machine behavior in a very easy way, following observations made on the fabric itself. PICANOL INTEGRATED CONTROL SYSTEM Links all features of the loom into one integrated unit. The different loom functions are perfectly synchronized with each other. The new LDEC main drive communicates...

Full set of tools to run a weaving shed in the most efficient way: manage machine settings with Picanol Style Administration, create new designs using Picanol Pattern Editor, access the weaving machines from a central computer, DISPLAY WITH These come with every order and make it easy to copy setting and pattern data from your talent
