Allround Cutting machine in full operation in South Africa

Since early April 2025, a brand-new ETF Allround Cutting Machine type M 5523 has been successfully installed and is now fully operational at Feltex Automative in South Africa.

Feltex Automotive is a key supplier in the automotive industry, delivering high-quality acoustic, seating, and trim components made from textile and polyurethane materials. To support their growing production demands, they chose the versatility and reliability of the ETF Allround Cutting Machine.

The machine processes needlefelt from mother rolls up to 2,500 mm wide. From the guided unrolling cradle, rolls can be unwound both from the surface and from the center.
A bi-directional, high-speed cross-cutting unit ensures precise cutting lengths using the scissors-cut principle.
Blankets are then smoothly transported via a belted table to the stacking area.
This table integrates a state-of-the-art length measuring system with an automatically adjustable stop, easily controlled via the operator’s panel to match exact sheet length specifications.
