Show highlights

Over the years, INLEGMASH experienced different socio-economic conditions, ups, downs and pauses. Through all these events the show has managed to maintain its presence and retain its position as an effective platform for demonstrating promising solutions in the textile and garment industry. 

The first national Turkiye Pavilion will be arranged with the support of the Textile Machinery and Accessories Industry Association (TEMSAD). The pavilion will host business meetings between Turkish and Russian entrepreneurs who will identify cooperation pathways for the future.

The INLEGMASH Team has announced Technical Textiles as the trend of the 2023 show. These textiles are one of the strategically important areas for the development of textile materials and are widely used in almost all industries. A special showcase will be organised to support this trend. The conference programme will include the 4th International Symposium on Russian Technical Textiles: Nonwovens, Raw Materials, Reengineering.

The Tekstilmash trade company will present a prototype of a new air-jet weaving machine at its stand, whose large-scale production will start at the end of this year. It will be the first air-jet weaving machines designed and manufactured in Russia with technical specifications on par with those of the world's leading textile machine tool manufacturers.

The ELFORT stand will showcase a smart digital sewing factory – the JANETS (JUKI Advanced Network System) sewing management system from JUKI Corporation.

Smart-T will show the full cycle of digital textile production from printing and thermal transfer to cutting. For the first time, INLEGMASH will have a large industrial flooring nesting facility, iECHO GLS, on display. Ark, part of the Smart-T holding company, will show advanced Gongzheng industrial textile dye-sublimation printers for the first time in Russia. 

Kosygin Russian State University will have a showcase where visitors will be able to see an armour pack test rig under dynamic conditions, a virtual fitting room, and a surface abrasion assessment device.

Conference programme

The conference programme will be opened by the Plenary Session on Market Needs as the Motivation for Industry Development. The event will be devoted to the issues of public procurement in the industry: plans, realities and economics, and cooperation of textile companies for shared growth: experiences of cooperation across industry sectors.     

The 3rd INLEGMASH International Industrial Conference will be dedicated to the main issues of establishing, modernising and expanding industry production.

Its events will showcase innovations in textile and apparel machinery, R&D, technical textiles, CAD, etc. Not a small part of the programme will be dedicated to production processes and modern technologies in the industry. National and international experts will cover the latest developments in production and application of technical textiles, industrial hemp, processes and equipment for textile finishing, digital textile printing, digital nesting of textile materials and much more. The programme will also cover industry training and HR issues. 

The participants in the 4th International Symposium on Russian Technical Textiles: Nonwovens, Raw Materials, Reengineering will talk about the competitiveness of Russian-made technical textiles and nonwovens, Russian innovative developments in the production of technical textiles and nonwovens, and whether Russian textiles can survive without imported raw materials. 

One of the important topics of this year’s conference programme will be digital textiles. It will focus on the basics of digital textile printing and textile finishing technologies for a wide range of applications, and on changes in the digital textile market in 2022. The professional audience will be interested in technical textiles, raw materials, nonwovens and recycling in Russia. 

One more interesting event will be the panel on smart technology in the textile and garment industry and the transition to Russian-made and freely distributable software.
