JI+ : Jumac Leads the Show at ITME India 2022 With Innovation

Successful participation at the top spinning industry events over the years has been a key factor behind the growth of the Jumac brand. For us, these events have served as excellent platforms to showcase our range of premium-grade sliver handling solutions, display the latest innovations, and connect with partners, stakeholders and prospective/existing clients. Thanks to the seamless interactions and information-sharing at these events – both in India and overseas – Jumac has been able to constantly consolidate its position as a sliver can manufacturer of global repute.

While our company has always received encouraging responses at the industry events and exhibitions, we made a real splash at last month’s India ITME 2022 (8-13 December). Innovation took centrestage during the exhibition – with our first foray into the domain of IIoT-enabled sliver management being announced. The newest additions in our product portfolio were exhibited too. Here’s a quick recap of how Jumac led the show at ITME 2022:

Ji+, A Breakthrough IIoT-enabled Sliver Management Technology, Was Launched

Over the years, Jumac has stayed steadfast in its focus of ensuring yarn quality optimisation from the very outset. We have constantly embraced the latest innovation standards – in order to ensure that sliver handling at mills becomes progressively easier and more efficient. At ITME 2022 Noida, we launched the state-of-the-art Ji+ (Jumac Intelligence Plus) technology. This is an integrated IIoT-enabled sliver management system that enables last-mile traceability & tracking, and optimises can utilisation. The response to our innovation during the event was immense.

Smart Automation To Resolve Commonly Encountered Mill Problems

Inefficient and/or erroneous handling of delicate sliver (however insignificant it might seem initially) often leads to irreversible damages in yarn quality. As a leading sliver can manufacturer, we consider it our responsibility to help mill-owners eradicate such problems from the operational system. With Ji+ ushering in automated spinning can management, tracking the sliver status in the cans on a real-time basis becomes possible. These sliver cans have identification bands with 10-12 LED light colour options. These ID bands serve as indication tools that provide valuable actionable insights. Ji+ highlights the potential of smart automation to eliminate common mill issues.

Focus On Industry 4.0

While collaborating with partners, stakeholders and its global clientele, Jumac has always looked to come up with solutions that help in enhancing product manufacturing and distribution standards – as well as service parameters. Our latest innovation, Ji+, captures the essence of Industry 4.0 in a comprehensive manner. The technology introduces a system of data-backed management and real-time monitoring – with a seamless combination of proprietary software and a powerful hardware system.

More Transparency. More Traceability. More Control.

Lack of visibility and information access often leads to problems in can handling & usage. Our latest innovation brings in greater transparency into the system, by working as a ‘hive mind’ network – with all the can-related data being accessible on a centralised dashboard (as well as on authorised mobile devices). The Ji+ system is also fully compatible with our Smart Can mobile technology. With this technology, we are trying to help spinning processes evolve, and move out from the limitations of labour-intensive operations. With better control and end-to-end traceability, it becomes that much easier to take more informed, data-backed decisions.

A Sneak Peek Into Jumac Intelligence Plus

The Jumac Intelligence Plus system, powered by machine learning and IIoT, showcases what the future of spinning would look like. The foolproof traceability of the cans across machinery during the preparatory stage – together with real-time tracking of yarn movements – ensure that sliver processing is never compromised (due to manual oversights) in any way. Apart from making can replacements faster, our new technology also provides a safeguard against accidental yarn mix-ups. Mill ROI levels should also receive a thrust with the Utilisation of Machines (UOM) metric going up. A seamless combination of better quality and improved productivity – that’s precisely what implementation of Ji+ ensures. Not surprisingly, the technology created a lot of buzz at India ITME 2022.

Launch Of Supremo Caster Wheels

Living up to our billing as a one-stop sliver can manufacturer company, Jumac has the complete range of material handling solutions in its portfolio. Precision-engineered caster wheels are an important line of products, since they facilitate smoother, better sliver transportation (i.e., can movements). At ITME 2022, we offered a preview into the next level in this – the Supremo Caster Wheels with ‘Ever Clean’ feature. These casters promise true fluff-free and dust-free assurance. In a ‘smart mill ecosystem’, our newest innovations have a potentially vital role to play.

Complete Range Of Sliver Handling Solutions Showcased

In addition to the new launches, we also exhibited our existing line of textile spinning solutions. These included our range of HDPE spinning cans (available in different diameters) – with high-quality accessories like springs for uniform sliver handling (box-type springs and pantograph springs), and caster wheels with fluff-free properties. Our range of specialized cans, including the XL 1200 cans that have 25% higher sliver capacity, were displayed too. The trolleys (perforated and non-perforated), that have been designed for bobbin storage and movement, were also exhibited. There were designated sections in our stall for displaying the different product categories.

High Footfall Figures. Interactive Sessions. International Visitors.

Our stall at India ITME 2022 registered excellent walkins (from visitors, partners, stakeholders and customers) – with the curiosity over our latest innovations at an all-time high. Several discussions and interactive sessions were conducted with industry peers – as our team focussed on seamless information transfer.

Through our regular participation in trade events, we look forward to streamlined information transfer with other players. At this year’s ITME event, we greeted visitors from all over the globe at our stall. The interactions helped us catch up with the latest news, updates and highlights from the textile spinning sector.

Continuous Improvement: The Jumac Mantra For Growth

We have been able to sustain our position as the top spinning can manufacturer in India by constantly upgrading our operations and product portfolio. Our commitment towards ‘continuous improvement’ has helped us evolve over the last five decades – as we have kept meeting the precise requirements of our clients worldwide.

Innovation has always been entwined in the business philosophy of Jumac Manufacturing. As an organisation, we try to be proactive in understanding the likely problems and issues our clients might be facing, as well as track the latest trends, news & updates from the spinning industry. This, in turn, has helped us come up with technologically advanced solutions that deliver actual value to mill-operators. At India ITME 2022, our latest innovations received an overwhelming response – and our stall registered impressive footfalls on all days. As an innovation-focused sliver can manufacturer company, we value the encouragement and appreciation from our customers the most. Going forward, Jumac will continue to work on making sliver handling even smarter & better. And that’s a promise.
