HUDDERSFIELD, England — May 1, 2019 — Optima Technology Ltd., based in Huddersfield West Yorkshire, today announced the opening of its new manufacturing facility dedicated to the design and production of 3D weaving machines.

Optima has developed a new generation of 3D weaving machines, particularly aimed at the rapidly expanding composite and specialty materials weaving market.

Optima’s design concept embraces a new approach to weaving, rather than following the conventional route of modifying 2D weaving machinery and equipment, thereby taking advantage of technology developments such as linear motors, digital control systems, and also utilising 3D design and manufacturing technology. The result is a very versatile design, coupled with much simpler operating characteristics, and delivered in a much more compact form.https://www.textileworld.com/textile-world/nonwovens-technical-textiles/2019/05/new-manufacturing-facility-for-3d-weaving-equipment-opens-in-huddersfield/
