A Rock-Solid Connection

Producing Eyelet Buttonholes with VUVG Solenoid Valves

Buttonholes serve as both a functional and visual point of connection between textiles. In textile manufacturing, however, there is generally very little time to produce them. The new 581 automatic eyelet buttonholer from Dürkopp Adler delivers the necessary speed. Equipped with Festo’s compact VUVG solenoid valves, it takes just under four seconds to create a buttonhole, reducing cycle time by roughly one second – which can make the difference between being the market leader and just another competitor.

“Festo technology makes the 581 automatic double-chain-stitch eyelet buttonholer the fastest of its kind in the world.”

Markus Richter, Head of Development at Dürkopp Adler
