ESATTA WARP - NEW SHEARING MACHINE

After several years of study and research, Saspe is now glad to introduce its brand-new machine "Esatta Warp" featuring a worldwide innovative and revolutionary concept of shearing. This machine can split and shear loops and floating yarn into warp in one single step. Up until now warp cutting technology has only seen discontinuous, old-fashioned, slow, imprecise, unreliable and very expensive systems which have severely limited design creation and application due to these configuration. The main innovation offered by "Esatta Warp" is a revolutionary system which allows "vertical" operation to the shearer so as to split and shear loops, residual yarn and hair towards the fabric sliding direction. The Esatta Warp has a variety of uses and offers endless possibilities for applications precluded or limited up until now. It suits traditional areas perfectly (such as fabrics for drapery, tapestry, underwear, trimming, car/automotive, clothing, foulards, scarfs, stoles, ties and many other textile sectors) and new growing key sectors such as that of technical fabrics manufacture where Saspe has been successfully operating for many years.
The "Esatta Warp" can process any kind of material, natural or synthetic. Three units are currently in operation, twenty-four hours a day, at the premises of an Italian Company with which Saspe had the possibility to co-operate to create the first prototype before developing the whole project design. Thanks to the support and the guarantee of progress monitoring by an end user, it has been possible to obtain excellent results in a very short time. The new shearing machine "Esatta Warp" is protected by an International patent obtained in co-operation with the Textile Manufacturer partner in this project.

1. Splitting of loops into warp and shearing in one single step and with one machine only. This means time and costs saving.

2. Substantial reduction in loss of material due to fabric shrinkage. This is obtained from the abolition of the intermediate tentering process (because two operations are carried out at the same time).

3. Operation in continuous. Interruptions because of yarn jamming between the shearing drop wires are now eliminated.

4. Possibility of creating new loom patterns which up until now were precluded by the poor developments in the yarn cutting technology (where yarn connects one pattern to another).

5. Possibility of shearing both the front and the back side without affecting neither the quality nor the strength of the fabric structure.

6. Possibility of crosswise processing of fabrics without measure restriction due to the mechanical bending problem that traditional horizontal shearing machines used to have.
