Mayer & Cie will showcase its new circular knitting machine for jacquard fabrics, the Ovja 2.4 EC II alongwith its ‘Performance Line’ and advanced smart solutions at ITMA Asia 2025. The exhibition will be held from October 28-31, 2025, in Singapore.
Engineered in Germany and manufactured in China, the new OVJA 2.4 EC II is designed for customers in the dynamic markets of China and Southeast Asia. It features a new system for single-needle selection that reduces cylinder height and requires fewer knitting elements, resulting in a significant decrease in energy consumption. The machine is well-suited for producing fabrics for sportswear, leisurewear, and home textiles, such as mattress covers.
Mayer & Cie ‘s new ‘Performance Line,’ sets industry standards for productivity. This range includes D4 4.4 HPI, the world’s most productive circular knitting machine for interlock fabrics, capable of producing up to 600 kilograms per day. For double jersey structures, the OV 3.2 QCe can produce up to 650 kg of fine rib daily. The single jersey sector is represented by the Relanit 3.2 HS II and Relanit 4.0, which are known for their yarn-friendly, energy-efficient technology.
The company will also present its digital solutions, including the new Control 5.0 machine control system. This system makes circular knitting machines Internet-ready and is a prerequisite for Mayer & Cie.'s digital platform, knitlink. Another innovation on display is knithawk, an optical defect detection tool that uses infrared light to scan the fabric at the knitting point. If it detects a serious or recurring error, it automatically stops the machine, preventing wasted materials and energy.
Benjamin Mayer, Managing Partner, says, ITMA Asia is both an opportunity for customer loyalty and a door opener for new business relationships for Meyer & Cie. This year, the company celebrated its 120th anniversary, a testament to its long-standing commitment to precision and reliability in the industry.
