SDL Atlas Showcases Innovative Technology at European ITMA

MUNICH – Personnel from SDL Atlas offices and distributors on every continent welcomed a large number of visitors to their booth during ITMA 2007 -- the textile industry's global showcase for equipment and accessories.

The company displayed a variety of its products during the eight-day event. Visitors asked questions, collected product information and watched demonstrations of new SDL Atlas testing technology as well as long-standing industry favorites. Of special interest to attendees was the first appearance at ITMA of the Sweating Guarded Hotplate -- compliant to ISO Standard 11092 -- and the MMT Moisture Management Tester, designed to measure three key parameters relating to moisture transport in fabrics. SDL Atlas officials reported much interest from a number of commercial test houses as well as fabric producers and specifiers.

SDL Atlas offered visitors an opportunity to compare the benefits of an array of different approaches for measuring pilling. Attendees were provided detailed insights into the merits of the PillGrade 3D fabric scanning system that delivers automated pilling assessment.  Also, the exhibition enabled company representatives to communicate its total capability as a turnkey provider of complete testing laboratories, including provision of laboratory design, installation and operator training. Reinforcing the message, said Managing Director Steve Combes, was the amount of interest and number of orders related to the diverse range of company instruments, from the Quickspin system to the newly introduced ColorChex high specification color viewing booth.
