Quality Counts – At Every Level of The Market

Fairs, Genel, Spinning - Yarn

USTER offers multiple resources for understanding quality management from fiber to fabric. In textiles, the two extremes of the market are poles apart – from mass-produced commodity products to ‘big-brand’ specialties where only the highest standards of material and styling apply. In between these opposites, of course, there are many layers of complexity. What all these dimensions have in common is clear: a need for consistent quality from yarn and fabric producers. Today’s challenging market environment means quality is a sustainable competitive advantage, and Uster Technologies is the unique source of the know-how and systems needed to deliver it.

Stäubli to Take Part at Techtextil Frankfurt

Fairs, Fibers, Spinning - Yarn, Weaving

Technologies For Manufacturing Advanced Textiles The list of potential applications of technical textiles seems almost endless. Engineers and research institutes regularly find new and more demanding areas in which the use of textiles can lead to technical progress, weight reduction, cost savings, or other benefits. In order to capture these advantages, the textiles must meet stringent requirements, resist mechanical forces such as compression or shear, withstand environmental conditions, or meet strict medical hygiene requirements. In addition, the fibres, yarns, and even finished fabrics are often subjected to chemical and mechanical processes during or throughout the entire textile manufacturing process. If the textile surface is a woven fabric, Stäubli plays an important role
