Turning an idea into a solution The international textile machinery industry depends on innovation. But what is innovation? Each of us may have our own definition of how we see innovation but in the end it comes down to turning a novel idea into a solution that adds value to a product and for a customer. Providing solutions for customers around the world is what the Beppe Ploner Group companies have been doing for over 50 years. An Italian based company, with its head office in Biella, encompasses Tecnomeccanica Biellese, Sant’Andrea Textile Machines, and Coppa. The Group supplies machinery for woolen and semi-worsted spinning plants; non-woven products; spinning lines; filtration and recycling systems, and more. The Group also works on individual designs for the specific customer requirements. ‘We provide manufacturers with the latest technology options to achieve their processing and spinning objectives’, says Mario Ploner. ‘It is a commercial necessity for them to operate in the most competitive level and still retain environmental compliance. This sensitivity to the environment has created new design challenges but today the end result is that our machinery produce better quality products. And we are proud to play our part toward this objective’. ‘We have seen the industry adapting and changing to meet market conditions. During this time we have been evolving as a company to provide innovative solutions to our customers’, Mario Ploner commented. ‘We base our designs on the available space that each client has and

the specific requirements that their production needs. We are providing faster and better outcomes, both regarding new machinery, plants and for maintenance and spare parts supply. We also care about safety and we keep increasing new solutions to guarantee a better technology for our customer also for these aspects’. ‘Our Automatic Filtering system is the culmination of the accumulated experience in the field of suction of dust, waste and fabric clippings from different types of processing machines’, says Mario Ploner. ‘Using our experience we have developed a new automatic filtering and cleaning system with significant advantages in automation and efficiency’.
