Miller Weldmaster and JTE Machine Systems, two industry leaders in the industrial fabric welding industry, are partnering to co-develop an innovative solution geared toward the awning and marine markets. “Partnering has proven itself one of the most powerful business tools for dealing with fast changing markets, technologies and customer base. As the global economy speeds up, partnering with the quality people of JTE moves us one step further towards our First Choice Globally vision”, said Scott Miller, President and Owner of Miller Weldmaster. This innovative machine will be available for demo at the 2014 IFAI Expo, September 14-16, 2014 in Minneapolis, MN at Booth 1527 and Booth # 1553.

SeamSTRONG is a rotary adhesive technology, which can produce strong, watertight, aesthetically pleasing, and consistent seams. It is a revolutionary new product that can easily create large panels at new speeds, which means greater productivity and cost-reduction for the industry. Its digitally controlled traversing head allows for a consistent adhesive application, plus the recipe storage of fabrics and parameters allow for quick product recall. SeamSTRONG uses an advanced hot melt adhesive specially formulated for use in an array of awning, marine and digital textile applications.

Both companies are enthusiastic about the joint cooperation. “We are very excited about working with such a dynamic and well respected company as Miller. Together, we look forward to doing great things for the customer!,” said JTE’s Traci Evling.

IFAI, the Industrial Fabrics Association International and the Advanced Textiles Expo are expected to host over 400 exhibitors who are representing core, high-tech and emerging fabric markets. This major show specializes in showcasing state-of-the-art products in the fields of engineering, aerospace, medical, geosynthetics, as well as the military.
