“For this seminar we have got testimonials from many of our clients including large Indian groups who have purchased IMA spreaders lens for sheets and that plans a further expansion,” averred Mirella.

Explaining further the webinar started on how cutting technology offers ideal solution for home textiles especially curtains, table cloths, sheers, foam rubber, foam and wadding for any kind of padding.
“We are very proud to have developed together with a well-known Italian brand, which is a leader in the production of underwear our line for padding. We can guarantee that using our automatic cutting technology , cutting up to a thickness of 12cm of compressed foam with a cutting precision within the tenth of a milli meter is possible,” said Vinicio.
He highlighted that for the home sector a spreading line composed of a loader, a spreader, but without cutting for tablecloths, curtains and sheets, and a complete line with cutting machine for all upholstery products is available.
Usually the materials to be laid in the HOME TEXTILE companies are presented in rolls that can be both opened or closed, but also welded.
According to this first differentiation and also to the working method used by the customer, two different types of spreading is possible, one with half sheet with or without clamp, the zig-zag folded roll with clamp
The accessories used in the production are with the increased opening of the clamp for the production of the padding foam, the triangle for the opening of the folded fabric with motorised spiral that allows a capacity up to 600 kg.
The management of the spreader also for 890XL is associated with a blowing table that allows, unlike the conveyor, to use the manual cutter directly on the table, so while the machine lays autonomously on the adjacent table, the operator can already cut on the other table.
As for the management and handling of the pieces, IMA has several solutions, in particular for the loading of the piece, the models designed for this sector are the 807, equipped with automatic belt for the pre loading of several pieces in succession with option for large pieces, and the model 805, designed and developed to ensure the loading of several rolls in succession, thus avoiding downtime for the stretcher with useful height up to 340 cm with the weight of the piece that can reach 200 kg each.
“The service team is very well trained, experienced and very proactive. We are very satisfied with the product and service which helps us to maintain our goals and improving our quality,” said a satisfied Kumar.
