In 2025, one of the most influential global events in the textile machinery industry—ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025—was successfully held as scheduled. As a long-term driving force in textile intelligent equipment and automation solutions, SUNTECH showcased several of its core products at the exhibition and engaged in in-depth discussions with textile manufacturers, industry experts, and partners from around the world.
This participation not only further strengthened SUNTECH’s brand presence in the international market, but also laid a solid foundation for multiple follow-up collaborations.
1. A Key Global Platform for the Textile Industry
ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025 brought together professional visitors from the weaving, dyeing & finishing, garment manufacturing, and textile trading sectors. Against the backdrop of rising labor costs, workforce instability, and increasingly stringent quality requirements, intelligent and automated solutions became one of the central topics throughout the exhibition.
With a focus on improving efficiency, ensuring operational safety, and enabling intelligent production, SUNTECH systematically presented automation solutions tailored to different stages of textile manufacturing, demonstrating how smart technologies can be practically implemented on the factory floor.
2. Reconnecting with Long-Term Partners and Engaging New Customers
Throughout the exhibition, the SUNTECH booth welcomed a large number of both existing and new customers from Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and South America.
For long-term partners, the exhibition served as an opportunity for face-to-face communication and discussions on technology upgrades. For first-time visitors, on-site equipment demonstrations and application scenario explanations provided a clear and intuitive understanding of SUNTECH’s product philosophy and technical strengths.
Unlike traditional “equipment-only” discussions, conversations at this exhibition focused more on real production needs, including:
* Actual production challenges in textile mills
* Equipment stability under different production rhythms
* Changes in workforce allocation after automation upgrades
* Return on investment and long-term operational reliability
These practical and in-depth exchanges enabled several projects to enter detailed evaluation stages directly during the exhibition.
3. AI Visual Inspection System: Advancing Quality Control
One of the key highlights of the exhibition was SUNTECH’s AI Visual Inspection System, which can be intelligently integrated with fabric relaxing machines to efficiently complete the production process.
Addressing common challenges of traditional manual fabric inspection—such as low efficiency, inconsistent accuracy, and high risk of missed defects—the system leverages advanced AI vision technology to achieve automated fabric quality inspection.
Live demonstrations focused on the system’s capabilities, including:
* Continuous and stable high-speed inspection
* Automatic detection and marking of various fabric defects
* Continuous learning based on a million-level defect database
* Automatic generation of defect maps and inspection reports
* Reduced labor costs and lower customer complaint rates
Customers widely recognized that the AI inspection system not only improves inspection efficiency, but more importantly helps factories establish a traceable and quantifiable quality management system, providing strong data support for process optimization and reliable delivery.
4. Automated Material Handling & Storage Solutions: Designed for Safety and Efficiency
At ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025, the Electric Warp Beam Trolley also emerged as one of the most highly discussed solutions. As weaving mills place increasing emphasis on production safety, traditional manual or semi-manual beam handling methods are no longer sufficient to meet modern operational requirements.
SUNTECH’s electric warp beam trolley demonstrated several key advantages on site:
* Single-operator handling, significantly reducing labor costs and safety risks
* High load capacity for stable transportation of heavy warp beams
* Stepless speed control, ensuring smooth operation even under full load
* EPS steering system for flexible maneuvering and precise positioning
Many visitors commented that beyond improving efficiency, the trolley plays a critical role in reducing safety risks caused by manual handling, delivering long-term value for production management.
5. Strong Agent Collaboration Supporting Global Expansion
SUNTECH’s continuous expansion in global markets would not be possible without the strong support of its regional agents. During ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025 in Singapore, SUNTECH held multiple in-depth discussions with agent partners, focusing on local market demands, project implementation processes, and after-sales service systems.
The agents played an essential role in customer communication, technical interpretation, and on-site support, enabling potential customers to quickly and clearly understand SUNTECH’s solutions—one of the key reasons behind the exhibition’s strong outcomes.
Looking Ahead
Through ITMA ASIA + CITME 2025, SUNTECH further enhanced its international brand recognition, advanced multiple projects into technical and solution evaluation stages, and strengthened collaboration with global partners.
Looking forward, SUNTECH will continue to focus on real production needs, further refining its intelligent and automated solutions to help textile manufacturers worldwide achieve sustainable improvements in efficiency, safety, and quality management.
We look forward to working with more partners to drive the textile industry toward a smarter and more efficient future.
