Our esteemed partner Bejimac, daughter company of Vandewiele nv, is currently showing our cutting-edge measuring systems for coating grammage improvement in finishing lines for woven, tufted and needle-punched carpets.
Hammer-IMS dedicatedly integrates its non-nuclear technology for measuring coating grammage into Vandewiele-Bejimac finishing lines. Thanks to the real-time measurement and automatic system adaptation of these smart systems, carpet manufacturers maintain highest product quality while reducing the usage and scrap of expensive latex material.
Don't miss the chance to explore our cutting-edge technology at ITMA 2023; be sure to visit Vandewiele and Bejimac's booths. Big thanks to Jean-Loïc Paulus, Managing Director at Bejimac.
Bilateral international agreement signed for coating grammage improvement in finishing lines for woven, tufted and needle-punched carpets and artificial grass.
Vandewiele's daughter company Bejimac, specialist in textile finishing machines, established a structural collaboration with Hammer-IMS on quality control of latex coating. This agreement fits in the shared vision of Vandewiele, Bejimac and Hammer-IMS to digitalize the finishing lines for carpets in which accurate, adaptive measurement plays an essential role. Hammer-IMS dedicatedly integrates its non-nuclear technology for measuring coating grammage into Vandewiele-Bejimac finishing lines. Thanks to the real-time measurement and automatic system adaptation of these smart systems, carpet manufacturers maintain highest product quality while reducing the usage and scrap of expensive latex material. The collaboration agreement stipulates that Vandewiele sells and distributes its Hammer-IMS enabled finishing lines. This resellership covers the entire world, except EU, the United Kingdom, Norway and Switzerland.
Last month, Hammer-IMS presented itself in C-mine where policy makers from Limburg province discussed with University Leuven the entanglement of Limburg and Leuven on the level of innovation.
Only eight months after its incorporation and investment capital round, Hammer-IMS exhibits on K-Messe, the world’s premier plastics industry trade fair in Düsseldorf. At this occasion, Hammer-IMS of Flanders demonstrates its new turnkey CURTAIN multi-head solution for measuring thickness and weight in production lines. Co-founders Noël Deferm and Tom Redant of the KU Leuven spin-off company developed a complete portfolio of revolutionary measuring solutions based on ‘M-Rays’ – electromagnetic millimeter waves. The turnkey systems have been performing trial runs at international paper producers and manufacturers of plastic sheets and films, composites and many other materials. Hammer-IMS offers a secure, ecologic and easy-to-install alternative for today’s nuclear measuring equipment. Come and watch the Hammer-IMS system in action on K-Messe – Hall 11 Booth E64.
(English language) The ambitions of the two engineers-entrepreneurs Noël Deferm and Tom Redant of start-up Hammer-IMS are (rightly) big: '"We want to make our non-nuclear millimeter waves based technology the golden standard in our application domains. The market is ready, because "Europe discourages the use of today's nuclear measuring equipment".
Corda Campus Hasselt – On June 10, Hammer-IMS welcomed around 70 guests in the PhiliCorda room to celebrate the launch of the new spin-off. During the event, Noël Deferm (general manager) and Tom Redant (technical & product manager) unveiled their plans for their non-nuclear Marveloc measurement technology, which is based on millimeter waves. Following their presentation, Professor Patrick Reynaert (KU Leuven), Kurt Hensen (CEO of T&M Solutions, now Averna), and Lieven De Jonge (Head of Smart Manufacturing, LRM) addressed the attendees. Both founders developed new systems for measuring thickness and weight in production lines, which are currently being tested by international producers of paper, plastic sheets and films, composites, textiles, glass wool, and other materials.
