The PTA 4/55 is a versatile high-speed needle loom engineered for balanced, efficient production. Combining 4 independent tape lines with a practical 55mm reed width, it delivers robust output for a wide variety of medium-width plain and simple-patterned webbings, offering an optimal blend of productivity and flexibility.
▎Product Advantage
1. Optimized Multi-Line Productivity for Versatile Widths
The PTA 4/55 is engineered for manufacturers who need both volume and adaptability. Its 4-line configuration delivers significant productivity gains over single or dual-line looms, while the 55mm reed width offers ideal versatility for producing a broad range of products—from single medium-width straps to multiple narrower tapes per line. This makes it a perfect efficient 4-line production machine for businesses managing diverse orders for medium-width technical straps and plain webbing.
2. High-Speed Precision and Reliable Performance
At its core, a durable and precisely calibrated needle loom mechanism ensures stable, high-speed operation. The machine is built to maintain consistent tension and uniform beat-up across all 55mm lines, resulting in webbing with excellent density and clean selvedges. This reliability is crucial for consistent production of packaging straps and ensures high-quality output shift after shift, building trust with consistent performance.
3. Rugged Design for Demanding Industrial Use
Constructed with a heavy-duty frame and high-quality components, the PTA 4/55 is made to withstand the rigors of continuous operation. Its robust build minimizes vibration and wear, ensuring long-term durability and reduced maintenance needs. This focus on longevity makes it a cost-effective and durable industrial workhorse, providing a strong return on investment through high uptime and low operating costs over its lifespan.
4. User-Friendly Operation for Enhanced Efficiency
Designed with the operator in mind, this loom features straightforward mechanical controls and an accessible setup. The efficient threading path and simplified maintenance procedures reduce changeover times and skill requirements, allowing your team to maximize production uptime. This ease of use makes it an ideal versatile and easy-to-operate needle loom for growing manufacturing operations.

▎FAQ
Q: How does the PTA 4/55 compare to models like the 2/65 or 10/30?
A: The PTA 4/55 offers a balanced middle ground. It provides higher line-count productivity than the 2/65 but focuses on medium widths rather than extra-wide. Compared to the narrow-focused, high-line-count PTA 10/30, the 4/55 is designed for wider, stronger straps. Choose based on your primary product width and required volume.
Q: What materials can this loom process effectively?
A: It is highly versatile and can efficiently handle a wide range of common materials, including polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), nylon, and blended yarns used for general-purpose and technical webbing.
Q: Is this machine suitable for a small to medium-sized factory?
A: Absolutely. Its 4-line design offers substantial productivity to support business growth without the extreme complexity or floor space requirements of much larger multi-line machines, making it an excellent scalable solution.
Q: What kind of maintenance does it require?
A: It follows a standard preventive maintenance schedule typical for industrial needle looms, involving regular lubrication, cleaning, and inspection of wear parts. The manual provides a detailed schedule and procedures to ensure optimal performance.
Q: How can I get a price quote or more detailed specifications?
A: Please contact our sales team through our website's inquiry form. Providing details about your target products (width, material, annual volume) will help us provide you with a tailored quotation and comprehensive technical documentation.
Before starting the machine, perform a comprehensive safety and mechanical check:
Lubrication: Ensure the centralized lubrication system is filled and oil levels are sufficient for smooth mechanical movement.
Mechanical Check: Verify that the heald frames, cams, and needles are securely fastened and free of debris.
Tension Setup: Check the yarn path for any tangles and ensure the tension on all 4 lines is consistent with your production specifications.
Warp Threading: Pass the warp yarns through the reed and heald wires according to the required weaving pattern.
Weft Insertion: Position the weft yarn on the holder and thread it through the tensioner and the needle carrier.
Waste Management: Ensure the initial few inches of the weave are clear of knots or uneven tension before engaging full speed.
Speed Adjustment: Use the frequency inverter to gradually increase the speed. For new patterns, start at a lower RPM to verify weave integrity.
Width Adjustment: Set the dividers for the 4-line output, ensuring each track does not exceed the maximum 55mm width.
Pattern Chain Setup: Configure the pattern chain links based on the desired weave structure (Plain, Twill, or Satin).
Inching Mode: Use the "Inch" button to rotate the machine slowly for one full cycle to confirm there is no mechanical interference.
Full Start: Once the test cycle is successful, press the "Start" button for continuous high-speed production.
Monitoring: The intelligent sensors will automatically monitor for yarn breakages. If a break occurs, the machine will stop instantly; re-thread the yarn and resume operation.
Emergency Stop: In case of any abnormality, immediately press the red Emergency Stop button.
Routine Shutdown: To stop production, press the "Stop" button and wait for the machine to complete its current cycle.
Daily Cleaning: After shutdown, use compressed air to remove lint and dust from the needle area and cams to prevent buildup and ensure long-term precision.
| Frequency | Task |
| Daily | Clean lint from needles and check automatic sensors. |
| Weekly | Inspect belt tension and clean the centralized oil filter. |
| Monthly | Check the wear of the pattern cams and tighten all structural bolts. |
| Bi-Annually | Replace the main gearbox oil and inspect the motor brushes. |
