With a product portfolio containing BCF extrusion lines, heat-setting machines, tufting machines and carpet weaving machines, Van de Wiele, by possessing competences in these different fields, not only makes important technical breakthroughs, but also offers many benefits to its customers.
The quality of a carpet starts with the quality of the yarns. Therefore, Van de Wiele offers its customers BCF extrusion lines. The experience in woven and tufted carpet, combined with the knowledge of yarn production, has led to the development of a performant extrusion line, the BXE. The BXE line is a three ends process, able to produce BCF yarns in polypropylene, polyester and polyamide 6. After the successful introduction of the first monocolour line in the market, several mono and tricolor lines have been sold in Turkey, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia.
Specialized Solutions by Van de Wiele
After the successful introduction of the Myriad in ITMA2015 and the success of the customers with this technology in house, Cobbe-Van de Wiele, announced the TUFTFX-L and the TUFTFX-C. The TUFTFX-L is equipped with the Myriad attachment, offering unlimited design flexibility by the use of compact servomotor yarn control. Each yarn is individually controlled through the individual pile delivery system to achieve an unlimited number of pile heights. By changing gradually pile heights between different colours an endless number of colour shades are created for tufting tiles, area rugs, wall-to-wall carpet and pictures. The simple, lightweight and compact Level Cut Loop mechanism on the TUFTFX-C allows combining cut pile and loop pile. Combined with sliding needle bar and Myriad attachment, a big variety of tuft effects in cut pile and different loop pile heights are possible.
To maximize the design possibilities, the TuftLink software has been developed. This software allows changing and creating very easy designs by working in separate layers for artistic design, pile heights, colours. This easy change is not possible with the traditional software now available on the market.
The Rug & Carpet Expert RCE02 forms the newest generation of double rapier face-to-face carpet weaving machines. The RCE02 is a fully electronic machine and many motions are controlled by servomotors.
