Electromechanic selection boxes

In its Textile division the company develops selector boxes and other accessories that are the most important innovation in the branch of the electronic selection of knitting machines, according to the manufacturer.

In order to properly satisfy the market’s requirements, Matrix has further extended its range of electromagnetic actuators for the jacquard selection on knitting and hosiery machines.

The technology adopted by these actuators is said to ensure ultra-fast switching times and unsurpassed accuracy granting high mechanical strength and durability even in the worst working conditions. This, according to the company, translates into an extremely long and maintenance free operating life, with noticeable positive effects on productivity and service costs.

Piezoceramic technology

Advanced technology and high quality standards, supported by a strict co-operation with the important textile machinery manufacturers, also allow the company to offer the widest range of piezoceramic selection boxes on the market.
