Papermachinefelt Needle Loom on its Way to China

950 tonnes of machinery, packed in 21 crates and 3 containers, started their journey from Eberbach to China on September 6. The needle loom type DI-LOOM PMF, which is 18 m wide, 12.3 m high and 4.4 m deep, was first loaded onto an inland waterway craft to start its transport to the North Sea port of Antwerp. There it will be reloaded and shipped via Shanghai to Kunshan where Dilo technicians will rebuild the machine in its final location.

The difficult loading onto the vessel which took from the early morning into the night required the use of several heavy trailers and huge cranes to lift the crates which each had a weight of up to 100 tonnes from the street via the Neckar bank onto the vessel.
