Karl Mayer will be present at this year’s ITMA in Milan from 12-19 November 2015 as an innovative market leader who is setting the trend with new technologies and services. The German company will be showing that it stands for trend-setting new innovations in warp knitting and warp preparation – an image which the manufacturer will emphasize with a fresh, modern appearance and a new corporate image.

More precisely in Hall 5, booth C 101 Karl Mayer will be showing a new HKS 2-SE high-speed machine with a unique performance profile. An important feature is the Low Energy Option (LEO) as a contribution to sustainability. Right from the very first glance, this new machine is said to look innovative, thanks to a completely revamped, modern machine design that focuses on ergonomics.

The new corporate look will be standard on all future developments. Karl Mayer will also be showing the HKS 4-M-EL high-speed tricot machine. Equipped with EL control, this new tricot machine is a said to be a flexible, highly efficient all-round machine.

Lace manufacturers, in search of completely new looks, will definitely get their money’s worth, Karl Mayer says – thanks to a multibar raschel machine equipped with fall plate, in a working width of 242 inches and thanks to another lace machine for producing lace bands and outerwear.

An innovative newcomer for manufacturing technical textiles is a new generation of the tried and tested HKS MSUS machine, based on the Wefttronic concept.

Karl Mayer has developed two new innovations with the focus on flexibility for the warp preparation sector: a sectional warping machine which can be extended from standard equipment into a weaving preparation machine for special applications, and a warp sampling machine with a previously unreached working width, thus, opening up new applications.

Another highlight is the size box, making a contribution to the subject of sustainability in sizing, and an innovative technology for the denim dyeing sector, that are setting new standards in terms of product quality.

Alongside all these new technical developments, Karl Mayer will be demonstrating that it has extended its all-round technical customer support services on a modular-based concept. The new features for more user benefit include offers for even more efficiency and performance of services and spare parts procurement.

Besides, three innovative online shopping facilities for mobile phones – the apps Karl Mayercheck Parts and Karl Mayerconnect as well as the Spare Parts Webshop – ensure a fast track to Karl Mayer.

Karl Mayer is looking forward to surprising its visitors. “Come, see and be amazed! “it says.
