Technical Textiles Gather in Frankfurt
Trade visitors from the fashion and clothing industry, upholstered-furniture manufacturers and all processors of textiles will gather at Texprocess, from 14 to 17 May 2019, for an even broader range of machinery and methods for processing textile and flexible materials. Once again in its level of bookings Texprocess is exceeding the results of the previous event. Four months before its start, the reservations are almost booked up.

“While on all sides people are talking of Industry 4.0, at Texprocess we are now talking of Impact 4.0. Trade visitors will find an impressive range of technologies which in every respect are having formative effects on the way we manufacture and process textiles, effects which will continue in future”, says Olaf Schmidt, Vice President Textiles and Textile Technologies at Messe Frankfurt.

With exhibitors currently from some 29 countries, Texprocess will be showing the whole range of textile-processing technologies – from design, to layout, to cutting, making, trimming, digital textile printing, conditioning, finishing, textile logistics and textile recycling.

Digital Textile Micro-Factory

RWTH Aachen University, jointly with various partners from industry and research, will be producing a smart cushion in its Smart Textiles Micro-Factory, thus demonstrating the process. The prototype of the cushion will have been showcased previously at Heimtextil 2019. The Digital Textile Micro-Factory at Texprocess and Techtextil, in collaboration with the Denkendorf Institutes for Textile and Fibre Research (DITF) and partners from industry, will be presenting three production lines one each for the manufacture of clothing, a 3D knitted shoe and for processing technical textiles, e.g. for the automotive or furniture industry.
