At the very forefront of innovation, the OmniPlus-i Connect airjet weaving machine redefines performance, sustainability and user experience.
With a series of groundbreaking upgrades, it has been built to lead the way in the market, both today and tomorrow. In airjet weaving, ensuring high performance is of paramount importance.
This is why, throughout our airjet machine developments, Smart Performance has been our top priority - in other words, ensuring every innovation contributes to the speed and efficiency of the weaving machine.
EcoBoost: an energy breakthrough at the core
Thanks to over 30 years of expertise with our proven SUMO drive concept, weavers throughout the world have benefited for many years from a high-performing and energy-efficient solution. We have now completely reengineered the drive setup, resulting in EcoBoost, which represents a major leap forward in energy savings. This has been made possible without compromising the reliability, speed, or efficiency.
The new EcoBoost is available across a broad selection of machine executions. Its integration delivers an impressive energy saving of up to 1.5 kW, which is an industry-first achievement that redefines energy efficiency in airjet weaving.
EcoWeft: less waste, more value
Sustainability goes beyond energy. With EcoWeft, weavers are empowered with an excellent tool that will minimize weft yarn consumption.
AirStream: smart on air, strong on performance
With the AirStream concept, Picanol has introduced a series of major innovations that have elevated airjet weaving to the next level. The redesigned main nozzles and their control valves, combined with the more flexible management of low continuous airflow, bring significant improvements to the insertion system. These enhancements not only safeguard high-speed performance but also provide the ideal foundation for optimizing air consumption.
ELSY Pro: uncompromised performance
With the introduction of ELSY Pro, our enhanced selvedge device now supports the highest production speeds.
SmartShed Pro: redefined digital shedding motion
With the next generation of digital shedding motions - SmartShed Pro - we are able to achieve more than just performance and data insights. This advanced system enables weavers to adjust the shedding angle faster and more intuitively than ever before, setting a new standard in regard to ease of use and operational flexibility.
WeavePilot: automation at your fingertips
Thanks to WeavePilot, operating the machine has never been easier. Optimal machine settings can now be reached automatically, reducing setup times and ensuring consistent, high-quality performance combined with minimal operator intervention.
