SOFT Signage Patent-pending ATAS
system makes life simple Another problem often encountered is tape sticking together when unwinding from the reel.
In order to serve as a solution for this and other issues, IMPULSA has developed the patent pending ATAS solution. Available from the UK distributor Alan Godrich Sewing Machines, the ATAS system is flexible enough to process different Keders during the lifetime of the machine. ATAS features a tape-unwinding device with two relaxing systems to enable users to achieve a revo- lutionary tension-free performance.
ATAS also features automatic Keder feed- ing. “When the operator returns the fabric for the next operation, the Keder is fed au- tomatically to the needle,” says Nigel. “Meanwhile, the operator is ready to sew immediately, all they need to do is simply program the size of the free corner per the customer’s wishes or per the elasticity of the Keder.” There are a number of intuitive fea- tures, such as needle cooling technology that prevents thread burning whilst ensuring the highest possible sewing speeds are still safely reached.

Synchromatic ATAS also handles additional sewing operations such as Velcro tape sewing, binding of tapes, double hemming and single hemming on small flags or even pole pockets.
