iTron 2.0

Unique new tufting technology that produces soft floor covering preferable to woven rugs and carpets.

iTron’s versatile platform is driven by:

Programmable and variable gauge
Programmable and variable shifting
Programmable and variable stitch rate
Hollow needle technology
Higher Productivity than weaving
Utilizes a conventional tufting creel

Efficient yarn usage:

No buried ends
No excess yarn incorporated into the fabric or laid on the back

Hollow Needle Technology

iTron hollow needle technology features iTuft – Individual servo yarn feed, Multiple yarns per needle with capability of tufting up to 16 colors Cut/Loop.

Available Configurations

Sewing widths from 42″ up to 204″
Cut pile construction
Cut loop construction

Cut-Loop

A modern twist on traditional cut-loop constructions:

Cut Pile and Loop Pile combined with pile height variations create timeless classics for rugs and broadloom
Tuftco modernizes a classic look with High Pile Cut-Loop with V-Tech
The iTuft pattern attachment allows cut-loop patterns in 1E, 2E, and 4E configurations
Perfect for wool, man-made fibers, and microfiber

Structured-Loop

Simple. Refined. Classic

crisp and sophisticated like woven carpet but crafted using Tuftco’s latest tufting technologies
computer controlled retractor arm creates extremely crisp high pile and low pile differentials
provides varying degrees of pile height differentials
servo-controlled retractor arm is programmed into and saved by Tuftco’s Tuftworx Operating System

LCL - Level Cut Loop

Tuftco’s Double Acting Cylinder System- DACS replaces mechanical spring based systems with a novel pneumatic drive eliminating spring fatigue and wear.
U.S. Patent Numbers: 6,550,407, 6,877,447, 6,945,184, 7,089,874 & Other Patents applied for

Multiple gauges available
Full repeat pattern capability
Optional iTuft pattern attachment available which allows
Multi level cut loop (MLCL) carpets

Direct Drive High Speed (DDHS)

Speeds of up to 2,000 RPM’s
Significantly fewer parts than previous high speed machines
Up to 21,000 square yards of production a day
Active Vibration Cancellation System for optimum balance

Active Vibration Cancellation System (DDHP - SHAKER)

DDHP is tufting technology for high pile turf & shag tufting machines at speeds of 800 rpm’s @ 60-mm which is 33% more productivity than other turf machines. The pile height range is expanded from 20mm-75mm.

Speeds up to 800 rpm’s
Pile Heights from 20mm to 75mm
Significantly fewer parts than previous high speed machines
