CITME Technology: Grob Horgen AG

Switzerland-based Grob Horgen AG will present the Twin C Power® heddle frame, developed for the
Asian market, and the modular KFW 5600 warp stop motion. The Twin C Power’s lightweight aluminum
frame staves are reinforced with high-performance carbon-fiber inserts, and offer a maximum bending
strength, eliminating the need for intermediate frame supports for wide weaving widths.

The KFW 5600 warp stop motion precisely monitors and controls warp yarns ranging from
delicate filaments to heavy staples, according to the company, and the modular design allows
flexibility in terms of performance level.
