ZBMax Series High-Speed Rapier Loom for PTFE Filter Fabric — 180cm Fabric Width, 230cm Reed Width
July 24, 2026 — Fuzhou, Jiangxi, China — Jiangxi Zhongbo Intelligent Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. announced today the delivery of its ZBMax series high-speed rapier weaving machine configured for PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) filter fabric production, with a finished fabric width of 180cm on a 230cm reed width loom.
PTFE filter fabric represents the high-end segment of industrial filtration materials. Known commercially as Teflon filter fabric, it delivers exceptional resistance to strong acids and alkalis across the full pH 1–14 range, continuous service temperatures up to 240°C, and instantaneous peaks of 260–300°C. These properties make PTFE filter cloth indispensable in flue gas treatment for coal-fired boilers, waste incineration, carbon black production, and chemical processing.
Weaving such a technically demanding material requires a technical textile rapier loom with precise tension control, stable weft insertion, and the flexibility to handle specialty yarns. The ZBMax platform was engineered exactly for this purpose.
Engineered for Technical Textiles & Filter Cloth
The delivered ZBMax loom integrates the following features critical to PTFE and other high-performance filter fabric weaving:
Reed width 230cm with 180cm effective fabric width — ideal for industrial filter cloth production
Servo electronic let-off & take-up: Realize constant tension weaving, essential for uniform PTFE filament laydown
Unique weft insertion mechanism: Space connecting bar with patented technology; 16mm narrow sword belt with single guide flight system
Electronic dobby shedding: Up to 20 heald frames (STAUBLI 2658B electronic rotary dobby optional) for complex filter fabric weaves
Maximum insertion rate up to 1425 m/min, with a design speed of 750 r/min
850Kg weighing tension sensor for precise warp tension control
Double back rest system and servo motor controlled let-off for demanding industrial yarns
A Platform for All Industrial Fabrics
Beyond PTFE, the ZBMax series has proven capability across glass fiber, carbon fiber, aramid, and other technical textiles — making it a versatile industrial cloth rapier loom for filtration, composites, and high-performance fabric manufacturers. Its wide-width siblings extend up to 600cm reed width, serving the full spectrum of industrial fabric production.
"This delivery underscores our deep expertise in high speed rapier looms for technical textiles & industrial fabrics," noted the General Manager of Zhongbo Intelligent. "PTFE filter fabric weaving pushes every subsystem of the loom to its limits. Our ZBMax platform meets that challenge with constant-tension servo control, high-precision weft insertion, and the durability our clients depend on for 24/7 production."
