ITEMA RAPIER R9500 FOR BOLTING CLOTH WEAVING

Fine filter fabrics – e.g. bolting cloths – are made by very fine high precision monofil cloth constructions of high densities. According to their application, yarns of special manufacturing and treatment can be used. Bolting cloths are used in high specialty applications, such as medical (blood filtration), automotive (fuel filtration), printing and electronic components (touch screens) and many others.

Itema is the only weaving machine manufacturer to provide the market with a rapier machine dedicated to weaving bolting cloth fabrics. In close cooperation with worldwide leading companies in this specific and demanding sector, Itema developed an advanced version of the rapier R9500 fine-tuned for the weaving of bolting cloths.
The innovative machine features special beat up system and shed geometry, with optimized FPA rapiers to perfectly handle these delicate yarns.
