In the last few weeks, we organized several activities aimed at raising money for De Warmste Week (the warmest week), which is a yearly national initiative that helps various good causes. 🔥 💪 And the Winterhappening event at our headquarters in Ieper last week proved to be the cherry on the cake! 🎄 This year, the money raised will be donated to projects in Belgium fighting against solitude. It was heartwarming for us to see so many colleagues coming together and making such a big effort for charity! 💙 #workingatpicanol #DWW24 #letsgrowtogether

In the new “How it works” video, 🎬 Kurt Lamkowski (Manager Worldwide Sales) introduces you to our Power monitoring feature. 💡 This unique Picanol feature visualizes the energy consumption of the weaving machines, ⚡ providing you with the opportunity to tune your weaving machines in the most energy-efficient way without compromising on the productivity or the quality of the fabric. With a module that is built into the BlueBox electronic platform, it is possible to monitor the average energy as well as the total energy consumed by your weaving machines. Furthermore, you can also consult this information on the BlueTouch display or on our digital platform, PicConnect. 👀 This way, you will always know the exact energy consumption of your weaving machines and have all the information necessary to make a correct cost calculation with regard to your fabric. 💰 Power monitoring will help you run your Picanol airjet or rapier weaving machines in the most efficient way and enable you to discover the energy cost of producing your fabric. 🙌 #picanol #letsgrowtogether #howitworks #sustainabilityinside #drivenbydata

We’d like to introduce you to Rafitec, our esteemed Brazilian customer. For the last 30 years, Rafitec has been the South American leader in the packaging market, and it currently employs 3,000 people. 👏 Ever since the company was founded, it has always been driven to develop new applications and nowadays Rafitec is a major producer of a wide variety of fabrics for packaging applications mainly based on tape yarns.🧵 In this video, Mr. Darcio Silva (Technical Director at Rafitec) explains why his company chose to partner with Picanol in 2021 when it purchased 16 Picanol OptiMax-i weaving machines. Rafitec embraced our technology and machines because they not only met but exceeded its expectations, with improved efficiency, flexibility for different technical fabrics and excellent usability.🤩⚙ Boosted by this success, Rafitec decided to completely switch to rapier technology and purchased another 44 OptiMax-i Connect weaving machines from Picanol in 2024. This decision reinforced the Brazilian company's firm commitment to innovation and quality. 🙌 We are really proud to be “Growing Together” by playing such an important role in terms of helping to shape the future of Rafitec and consolidating its leading position in the production of synthetic fabrics and packaging solutions in South America. 🤝 #picanol #letsgrowtogether #beconfident #customerstory

Today, we’re launching “Dashboards,” which is a new feature in PicConnect, our digital platform. 🆕 This represents a major enhancement with which you can gain insights into your weaving mill’s performance at a simple glance. 🧐 Going forward, data from your weaving mill will be displayed visually and intuitively, enabling you to quickly gain high-level insights. 📊 This new feature comes with several pre-defined dashboards that can be customized to your preferences. This ensures that you can view key data in a format that works best for you. 👌 Furthermore, it is also possible to schedule automated exports in Dashboards. 📨 This will send your dashboards in PDF format directly to your inbox, giving you quick and easy access to the insights. With the introduction of Dashboards, PicConnect continues to evolve to better meet the needs of modern weaving mills, making data-driven information easier to obtain and more accessible than ever. 🙌 Interested in experiencing this new feature and all the other benefits of PicConnect? 👉 If so, then visit https://lnkd.in/evq338VD or contact your local After Market Sales Representative. #picanol #letsgrowtogether #beconfident #picconnect #digitalization
