Murata 1. Sales of 'Process Coner II QPRO' in Full Swing 2. 'Vortex III 870' to Spin a Wider Array of Yarns

摘要

Sales of the new "Process Coner n QPRO" automatic winder from Murata Machinery, Ltd. are expanding. Sales have been in full swing since last year, but due to a decline in price competitiveness caused by the strong yen, the replacement of existing "No. 21C Process Coner" models had not progressed as expected. However, the government's bold monetary easing measures this year has weakened the Japanese currency, which in turn caused a recovery of price competitiveness. Hiroshi Takaku, General Manager of the Textile Machinery Division at Murata, says, "From the beginning, our automatic winders have been highly appreciated for their high productivity, stability and package quality. Our automatic winders once dropped their share due to the abnormally strong yen, but the share has recovered with the expansion of sales of the 'Process Coner II QPRO' model."
