Rimtex concluded its participation at ITMA Asia 2025 on a high note, reinforcing its leadership in sliver management. The Rimtex Innovation Pavilion attracted industry stalwarts, mill owners, technologists, and global stakeholders - all eager to experience firsthand the breakthrough solutions shaping the next phase of yarn manufacturing.
Pi Score Places the Spinner at the Centre of the Innovation Matrix
At the forefront of the display was the Pi Score, an entirely new concept developed by the research team at Rimtex. Pi Score ushers in a revolutionary shift in the way mills perceive the role of the spinning can. Backed by years of manufacturing experience, global exposure and in-depth knowledge of yarn manufacturing processes, Rimtex has established a scientific way to quantify the critical parameters influencing sliver management through a single Pi score – a first in the industry. Visitors appreciated its transparency, logic and relevance, calling it a paradigm shift in how mills will evaluate silver-handling performance in the future. Rimtex had set up a special demonstration for mills to discover their Pi Score, and visitors clearly benefited from this. For many, Pi Score emerged as the highlight of the event, an ‘eye-opener’ as described by many visitors.
Rimtex Redefines Standards in Sliver Handling, Yet Again
Another major crowd-puller was the launch of the all-new SUMO Spinning Can range. A complete size range, SUMO spinning cans are now available for all types of spinning - Ring Spinning, Open-End and Airjet. The SUMO Cans come with multiple advantages and up to 10% more sliver loading capacity. Spinners are encouraged to get in touch with the company to understand this Spinning Can, since the gains are much more than what can be listed. At the show, many spinners expressed strong interest in implementing the new SUMO variants, recognising their significant impact.
With WIZCAN, Rimtex Shows the Way Forward
The company also showcased the latest progress of WIZCAN – the world’s first sliver intelligence system, which is now successfully running in a leading spinning mill in India. Its ability to track, predict, prevent, and manage sliver-handling in real time impressed visitors seeking automation-ready solutions. The project showcase played at the pavilion sparked numerous discussions about large-scale deployments and deeper integration within mill ecosystems.
Simplified Automation with Sliver Bot
While Automation was the talk all-around this time, Rimtex’s Sliver Can Navigation Robot, a sliver can transportation system designed to make automation accessible for mills of all sizes, made considerable waves at the event. From seamless delivery-on-demand to precise navigation and smart decision-making, Sliver Bot empowers yarn manufacturers to optimise their operations and enhance productivity. The demo highlighted its adaptability and efficiency - further establishing Rimtex as a pioneer in accessible innovation. The Sliver Bot is designed and manufactured by Rimtex in India.
The X-Axis Demonstrates New Possibilities in Ring-Spinning
The X-Axis segment attracted deep interest, with spinners engaging closely with the team’s research-driven perspective on Spinning Wellness. Many visitors acknowledged how the division’s scientific approach to Rings & Travellers selection-rooted in data, trials and application-specific compatibility, is helping mills reduce yarn damage, improve parameters, and unlock higher profitability. What impressed spinners most was the clarity with which the X-Axis team demonstrated that Rings & Travellers are not shelf items but critical performance components. Several mills expressed interest, validating the growing relevance of the Spinning Wellness concept.
Durable & Reliable Kalpar Castors
Kalpar Castors showcased their durable, dust-free castor wheels, widely appreciated for their ability to reduce machine stoppages and ensure smooth material movement in demanding textile environments. Visitors appreciated their long working life and reduced replacement need - key factors for choosing castors. This reliability of Kalpar Castors continues to make them a preferred choice for textile mills worldwide.
Throughout the event, Rimtex’s pavilion remained among the most active hubs at ITMA Asia 2025. Leading spinners recognised the company’s unwavering commitment to moving the industry forward. The volume of inquiries, deep technical discussions and project interest reinforced Rimtex’s reputation as the global authority in sliver management and yarn quality optimisation.
With such a positive response, Rimtex looks ahead with confidence. The future of spinning is poised for transformative change - and Rimtex stands ready to lead that evolution.
