As technical textiles continue their rapid expansion across demanding markets such as defense, mobility, aerospace, construction, energy, Stäubli will showcase innovative solutions designed to empower mills to produce the next generation of advanced fabrics at Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, Germany, from 21 to 24 April. One of the global leaders in high‑performance weaving technologies, Stäubli will exhibit its trend-setting technologies at the Swiss Pavilion Booth B01.6 in Hall 12.0.
Magma warp knotting machine
At this year’s edition, Stäubli will display its MAGMA Tying Machine, a robust and high‑efficiency solution specifically engineered to handle the increasingly diverse and demanding yarns used in today’s technical textile applications, including polypropylene tapes and other challenging filament structures. MAGMA delivers consistent tying quality while reducing the downtime traditionally associated with warp changes.
Stäubli will also present its TF series weaving machines, engineered for the production of advanced 3D, multilayer, and high‑performance fabrics using demanding materials such as carbon, glass, and aramid fibers.
The TF20 offers high-speed capability and a double rapier option, increasing output for industries requiring lightweight composite reinforcements. The TF30 ensures gentle yarn handling while supporting highly sophisticated weave structures, making it ideal for aerospace‑grade and industrial textiles.
TF weaving system for complex multilayers
As part of the brand’s other solutions for technical textile, the UNIVAL 100 electronic Jacquard machine provides unparalleled flexibility for weaving complex and sophisticated technical fabrics. Featuring individually controlled harness cords and exceptional motion precision, the UNIVAL 100 is particularly suited for 3D weaving and the processing of demanding materials such as glass and carbon fibers.

The Jacquard machine LX 2494 is used for weaving technical fabrics on all types of weaving machines. Very robust and wear-resistant, it opens new avenues in heavy fabrics and is designed for many years of daily use with a minimum of maintenance. The Stäubli M6T 3-position module principle makes the machine particularly compact, and plays an important role in exploiting its performance potential.
