Textechno GmbH & Co. KG is designer and manufacturer of precision test equipment for textile and man-made fibers, headquartered in Mönchengladbach, Germany. Established nearly 75 years ago, Textechno and its subsidiary Lenzing Instruments in Austria are world market and technology leader in their fields. Textechno stands for reliable, innovative, and highly automated technology with outstanding production quality that forms sustainable testing systems.
At ITMA 2023 in Milano, besides the standard testing systems for classical and technical textiles, Textechno will exhibit several novelties. Two of these highlights are a new weak spot tester for spun yarns as well as a modular testing system, which determines the most important quality parameters of recycled fibres.
The increasing importance of work safety as well as new demands for testing reinforcement fibres have motivated Textechno to develop a new electronic wrap reel which will be shown at Milano. It is applicable to textile yarns as well as technical yarns and reinforcement fibers used in composites such as carbon fiber tows and glass fiber rovings.
Since our single-fibre testers are suitable for all kinds of fibres, Textechno has already successfully entered the market of testing reinforcement fibres such as glass- or carbon fibres. At ITMA we will show an integrated measurement of the fibre conductivity that is especially interesting in the field of smart textiles.
For the new section ‘Composites’ at ITMA, Textechno demonstrates testing systems for fibre/matrix adhesion and for the characterization of roving and tow properties.
