An unparalleled experience in textiles, integrated with the

most modern applications in electronics enabled Panter to

conceive the E58 that according to Panter's tradition, is

available both in the positive rapier version, E58P and

negative one, E58.

Introduction

The loom Panter E58, the evolution of Panter's experience

achieves a wider field of applicability than previous models,

for both light and heavy fabrics, thanks to the optimization of

the rapier body and the further evolution of the tape control

system.

The new electronic cabinet, CU2006, developed using the

most modern technologies provides ease and simplicity in

use and weaving operations checking.

The new machine offers maximum reliability and high

productivity through the possibility to maintain high speed

and elevate performance in working without difficult setups,

assuring optimum quality of the product as well as low

operation costs and reduction of the maintenance cost, with

a strong reduction in wear of moving components and of

consumption material.

Another improved characteristic is the optimization of

ergonomics and ease of article changing.

Panter can rapidly switch from a positive to a negative rapiers

operation, providing maximum flexibility and a high rise in

productivity.

Negative rapiers can weave simple and standard wefts at high

speed while positive rapiers are perfectly suited for weaving

complex wefts such as hairy yarns, boucle, Liberian fibres

(linen and hemp) and technical fibres such as Kevlar, carbon

and glass fibres, aluminium and steel.

The distinction between positive and negative rapiers can be

made by the weft exchange.

• In the negative, picking (gripping, exchange and release)

happens automatically.

• In the positive, picking occurs by controlling the opening of

rapiers in order to make weft gripping more reliable.

Panter miniaturized rapiers are realized by using innovative

pre-formed high-resistant steel technology, which can

provide for the use of extremely small masses and high

mechanical resistance.

Small sizes, up to 8 mm, can optimize the stresses on warp

yarns and enable the operator to arrange rapiers very close to

healds. This also allows an operator to use a smaller shed,

without compromising the maximum quality of the fabric.

Moreover, such rapiers will enable the operator to use smaller

tapes and tape guide hooks having a special geometry inside

the shed. Unlike those used by other manufacturers, they will

increase weaving capacity up to the most elaborate technical

fabrics (Kevlar, glass fibres), multifilament and high weft

density, which were notoriously unreliable on guideless looms.

Control Unit CU2006

The control unit CU2006 is a multi-axle and multi-processor

system that can communicate by can bus, Bluetooth and

serial connection with the different internal and external

devices.

The management of moving parts is done exclusively by

digital technology. The graphic display and system of multiple

selection menu, structured in icons divided by arguments and

connected to the loom functions, allow easy and immediate

programming of the machine.

EfficiencyDirect Drive

From the very beginning the one thing that made Panter

machines stand out was the revolutionary direct motor. The

direct drive system has been developed and engineered

entirely by the company since 1999.

This device is intended to control the weaving machine directly

without any brake clutch. This allows the motor to reach

maximum speed in one single revolution as well.

This means that starts and stops are repetitive, constant and

controlled, which is absolutely necessary for maximum quality

without any sign of stoppages.

Moreover the electronic control of the motor will enable the

operator to select the speed rate, to achieve various speeds

according to a pre-established pattern to limit overload peaks,

to cut down electric consumption from 40% to 15% and to

reduce the mechanical stress of drives even up to 50%

providing maximum reliability and low maintenance. The

system considerably simplifies the operators work and makes

it more comfortable. An interface allows the operator to

program the direct motor in order to customize loom

operations according to the weaver's needs.

The tape control system is the heart of

the Panter loom.

Studied for years by the technical department, it's based on a

screw-lead screw concept with multiple principles which grant

high performances, noise reduction and low power

consumption.

The small number of moving parts and their particular

configurations optimize machine reliability in high speed

conditions and diminish wear and tear.

All mechanical components are sure and reliable and undergo

sophisticated quality control tests to ensure they are perfect

for high speed weaving.

The system increases to a maximum the machine's versatility

and allow frequent article changing.

The E58 thanks to improvements in geometry and oiling has

boosted the system's energy output and drastically reduced

tapes stress at high speed, increasing their longevity and

working quality.

The structure of the Panter weaving machine is composed of

superior units with highly engineered and technically superior

components, which is the result of thorough investigation and

long-standing research and development. Panter has been

using Advanced Engineering Techniques to provide a Sturdy

& Reliable Structure

The 'shoulders' conceived according to an innovative vision

going beyond contemporary traditional engineering

techniques and comprise an ensemble of medium thick metal

sheets that can provide the machine the necessary strength

and sturdiness at all critical points without compromising its

functions. The reason for this choice was to markedly reduce

noice levels and to damp vibrations. Even if the damping

capacity of cast iron is twice that of steel evidence shows that

the damping capacity of sheet metal assembly may be 100

times that of cast iron.

The antiwear surface treatments of all pieces of the assembly

protects sheets against atmospheric agents and keep the

structural functions of mechanical components unaltered all

through the passage of time.

The metal sheets are laser-cut inside the company. This

allows the maximum flexibility to meet all kinds of needs,

through slight structural changes.

These choices, made in 1992, have proven themselves

successful by their full achievement of their purposes and the

absence of any contra-indication to these principles. What

was considered against the trend at the beginning is now

fundamental for the modern machine which can fulfil all kinds

of requirements in a constantly changing market.
