Client experience
What our customers say about Sortlink Magic
We at GHCL have installed 14 Sortlink systems and they have proved to be the best workload assigned.
We have successfully established 39 Sortlink 2 and 3 colour sorting systems in 2 of our units. The system has been running smoothly ever since it was installed in 2014, with the least service intervention required.
Indo Texnology has helped us install 12 of their Sortlink 4-colour sorter systems for extra-long bobbins of 260 mm. We are quite pleased that this sorting system can sort very intricate four-colour 260 mm bobbins while requiring minimal maintenance.
Trident has successfully installed 28 Sortlink systems. We are very glad that Indo Texnology's Sortlink system has met all of our performance and service support standards. They have certainly exceeded our expectations.
We're fortunate we went with Indo Texnology's Sortlink for our units at Erode and Vepadai. We deployed 12 Sortlink systems successfully.
Sortlink Magic is truly magic. It sorts all our bobbins accurately. This has allowed us to reduce the manpower requirement in the winding section. We have decided to install this system in all of our units soon.
Indo Texnology installed the Sortlink Magic at KG Naidu Mills and we've been pleasantly surprised with its performance. This is a good system to reduce the manpower required in the winding area.
