Weaving machinery for silk fabrics

At Stäubli, we understand the technical precision required in silk weaving. From the delicate handling of warp threads to the complexity of Jacquard patterns, silk weavers face unique challenges— downtime, tension control, speed limitations, and labor-intensive warp preparation. That’s why we engineer advanced solutions that meet these demands head-on.

Silk scarf fabrics

Flexible, high-speed silk weaving and warp preparation solutions enabling quick style changes and efficient throughput.

Tie fabric production

Reliable weaving machinery for gentle yarn handling, enabling refined fabric structures and precise patterns for high-quality silk ties.

Plain and Jacquard silk lining

High-speed, power-efficient weaving machines ensuring premium quality and refined patterning for silk jacket linings.

Your challenges

Silk, a delicate and fragile fibre

Silk can easily be damaged or broken during warp preparation or weaving if not handled properly.

No room for error

Errors in tension or alignment can create defects in the fabric, which may require adjustments or rework, increasing losses.

Continuous silk fabrics production

For maximum profitability, silk weaving must be as continuous as possible. Accurate calculation of downtime and style changes allows for margin optimisation.

Changes in style and design require a high degree of flexibility from the equipment.

You expect your weaving machines to be highly adaptable, both in terms of varying densities, weaves and designs, and in managing silk thread tension.
