Managing energy instead of wasting it

In May 2024, KARL MAYER launched its Energy Efficiency Solution (EES) for recording and analyzing energy consumption on warp knitting machines. Two months later, customers had already provided initial feedback on the innovation for greater sustainability and lower costs.

To ensure that they can use the EES easily, KARL MAYER has translated the operating manual into six languages and developed a tutorial which can be found on the KARL MAYER Academy online platform. The explanations start with information on opening and configuring with customer-specific data. All display options and search functions are then presented. The final chapter focuses on analyzing energy consumption, costs and CO2 emissions.

In addition, further optimizations for the EES are on the way or have just been completed.

“We are currently introducing a timer function feature. The complete integration of EES as a further solution in our Customer Portal has already been finalised. Just like the Dashboard andCORE LITE, the EES can now also be accessed in this way. This makes it even clearer and easier to use."

The innovative mechanical engineering company is working with its customer RÖKONA on the new energy management solution. The warp knitting specialist develops and manufactures technologically sophisticated textiles for new products and applications in Germany, focusing consistently on customer requirements and relying in particular on technical innovations.

In July, KARL MAYER Sales Manager Julian Schubert spoke to Stefan Passauer, Production Manager Warp Knitting at RÖKONA, about his involvement in the development and optimization of the EES.
