The Coimbatore-based Autotex is a name that has become synonymous with a world-class range of bobbin holders. The company is all set to launch what it claims is the ‘world’s first bobbin holder with bobbin locking system’ at India ITME 2016.
In an exclusive chat with The Textile Magazine, Mr. Ramanujam, Managing Director of the company, said that ITME 2016 is undoubtedly the biggest international event for the textile industry in India. “We have been participating in the event for the last 20 odd years. This time around we expect a spurt in the number of visitors from Asian countries such as Bangladesh, Vietnam, Pakistan, Indonesia, etc. We also expect to see more visitors from Turkey, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, etc.”
The company is all set to launch its revolutionary new patented product at the event. Autotex has already carved a niche for itself through its patented innovations such as the Multi-brake System (MBS), bobbin holder with 3 pin holding system (3PH), the 4 point holding system (4PH) and suspension system (4PHS) in bobbin holders. The bobbin holder with bobbin locking system (BLS) is yet another testimonial to the company’s consistent R&D focus.
Elaborating further on its core philosophy, the company’s Managing Director observed: “We have received good response for our products in several key global markets. We are an innovation-driven enterprise and always strive to provide innovative solutions to the spinners understanding their requirements.”
Key strengths of the company which include having an exclusive R&D team, stringent quality assurance throughout the production process, automated production process, as well as good technical support have been instrumental in the company’s consistent growth story over the years.
According to Mr. Ramanujam, the company has the biggest bobbin holder production capacity in the world. Autotex offers 70 varieties of bobbin holders and has 50 patents. “The fact that we are the preferred choice of global OEMs around the world is a testimonial to the quality and performance of our products.”
On a concluding note Mr. Ramanujam said: “2016 has been a very positive year for us. One of the achievements for us during this year was receiving the ‘Best Quality Award’ from RIETER, which is a matter of great pride for us.”
