About Textile Machinery

Textile machinery is used in the fabrication and processing of fabrics, textiles, and other woven and non-woven materials. It is used in processes such as spinning, weaving, warping, and dyeing. Textile equipment can be used to manufacture, dye and finish materials such as fiber, yarn, and thread. It is also used for the extrusion of non-wovens, synthetic fiber and various plastics. Textile machinery includes devices such as balers, draw frames, fabric cutters, calenders, dyers, dryers, padres, extruders, conveyers, and die presses. For winding operations, textile machinery includes ballers, doublers, and winders. Textile apparel equipment includes cutting and finishing machines, embroidery machines, and sewing machines. Other types of textiles machines and textile equipment are also commonly available.

Textile machinery is used to process natural fibers such as silk, wool, and cotton, or with artificial fibers such as such as polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. Purchasers of textile machinery can use web-based locator services to buy or lease new or used textile equipment. A textile machinery dealer or textile manufacturer can belong to trade associations such as the Machinery Dealers National Association, the American Textile Machinery Association, or the Association of Machinery and Equipment Appraisers (AMEA).
