Multi-phase weaving
- How it works! The M8300 multi-phase weaving machine produces simple, standard fabrics with an extremely high weft insertion rate. The three priorities in this revolutionary development were performance potential, ecology and economy. Even at market launch, its performance was three to four times that of a modern air-jet weaving machine.

The performance of the M8300 is far superior to other weaving machines The M8300 produces simple standard fabrics with extremely high weft-insertion rates. Special emphasis has been placed on producing fabrics with this machine that meet the high quality standards set today. This has been convincingly achieved by the elimination of insertion faults and creating the basic requirements for uniform fabric appearance.

Sulzer Textil M8300 is the result of a development strategy focused on performance potential, ecology and economy. Even in the development stage the multi-phase weaving machine already surpassed by far the performance of any other contemporary air-jet weaving machine. As the weft is inserted continuously without interruption and at an even pull-off speed of only 20-25 m/s, the stress on the yarn is significantly reduced. This points to potential for further performance boost in the future.
