Mono wire healds from Groz-Beckert: Optimized for application and environment

© 2021 Groz-Beckert
Healds are one of the core components of the weaving process: No woven fabric can be created without them. Groz-Beckert has many different healds for a wide variety of applications in its range. Among them RONDOFIL- and Jacquard healds, which are usually made of two wires. Groz-Beckert provides them innovatively as mono wire healds made from one single wire. This offers numerous advantages for the process, end product and the environment.

From RONDOFIL to Jacquard

Both Groz-Beckert RONDOFIL healds and Groz-Beckert Jacquard healds are made from a single wire. This provides a perfect surface for even the finest warp threads. The surface quality of mono-wire healds is also advantageous for very high row densities of warp threads: High-quality fabrics produced with maximum efficiency are the result.

The mono wire healds from Groz-Beckert are also characterized by the fact that their thread eye, also known as mail eye, is not twisted-in and soldered, but glued. Compared to the use of twin wire healds, the thread surface is therefore protected even more and damages to the warp yarn due to material fatigue and corrosion are prevented. Another advantage of the glued thread eye is that no lead-containing solder must be used for fastening, which makes the healds more environmentally friendly and resource-saving.

The advantages of Groz-Beckert mono wire healds at a glance:

1. Surface is gentle on thread

2. Made from mono wire for high densities

3. No soldering tin used

4. Made from stainless steel

5. Suited for any yarn

6. Highest production accuracy

7. Customer-specific specifications available


REACH compliant and environmentally friendly

The avoidance of lead-containing soldering tin in the manufacture of healds offers advantages across the board. In contrast to other competitor products, the mono wire heald does not contain any lead and is therefore not harmful to health or the environment. Precautions that are required when handling SVHC lead, such as special skin protection, are therefore not necessary. This means that mono wire healds from Groz-Beckert are also REACH-compliant and thus help to meet compliance requirements with regard to the use of chemical substances.

Buyers of mono wire healds from Groz-Beckert who need a REACH certificate for compliance reasons can contact their Groz-Beckert representative who will be happy to prepare this for them.

"Dynamic markets do not only create uncertainty – they also create opportunities."

Volatile markets, increasingly complex materials and growing demands for flexibility are changing the weaving industry. At the same time, new opportunities are emerging in technical textiles, filtration, composites and many other specialised applications. Since taking over as Head of DORNIER's Weaving Machines Product Line at the beginning of 2026, Yvonne Schuberth has been helping to shape this development. In this interview with TexData, she explains why process stability and customer proximity remain the foundation of innovation, how digitalisation is transforming weaving mills, and why she believes the future belongs to technologically demanding applications.

Fewer pores, greater impact tolerance: Peter Dornier Foundation Prize 2026 honours material research on fibre-reinforced composite components for aerospace industry

Microscopically small pores that form during manufacture, or barely visible impact damage, can severely impair the load-bearing capacity and service life of fibre-reinforced composite components. Two young researchers have presented groundbreaking work in this field and will both be awarded the 2026 Peter Dornier Foundation Prize: Dr.-Ing. Benedikt Neitzel from the Technical University of Ilmenau for his doctoral thesis on pore minimisation in the RTM process, and Johanna Buschmann, M.Sc., for her master’s thesis, completed at the German Aerospace Centre, on the improved impact tolerance of 3D fabrics compared to 2D laminates.
