on show the new Itema rapier weaving machine - GalileoRX


At SZTIE, Itema will showcase GalileoRX, the latest model of rapier weaving machine manufactured in the Itema China plant in weaving width 2300mm with FPA – Free Flight weft transfer system and producing apparel.

Specifically designed to combine the most innovative weaving technology with the unique advantages of accurate manufacturing in China, GalileoRX was launched in December 2022 and will be running live for the first time on an exhibition ground at SZTIE.

Born on the heritage of the most successful high-end rapier weaving machine assembled in China, the Itema R9000 and later R90002, GalileoRX features further technological and design advancements to fully meet the needs of the market, reaching unbeatable levels in terms of performance, textile mastery and eco-efficiency.






From the technological point of view, GalileoRX offers weavers the possibility to adopt the most advanced weaving technology to put them apart from the competition due to tangible and substantial benefits. GalileoRX, indeed, successfully weaves the widest range of fabrics – a totally open platform configurable to meet exactly the weaver’s requirements.?The optimized mechanical components provide substantial energy savings and enhanced performances while guaranteeing superior fabric quality. The new machine’s ergonomy guarantees outstanding user-friendliness by facilitating machine accessibility for the weaver when carrying out daily textile operations, thanks to the new front cover with incorporated pushbuttons panels, to easily operate the machine from different operator positions. The Itema Electronic NCP—New Common Platform—comes here loaded on a high-performance, super-sensitive touch-screen console, that facilitates the communication between the weaver and the machine thus simplifying the daily textile operations.
