Innovation often starts with a single thread. Here, that thread becomes a Jacquard & intarsia knee brace, knitted on our newest Vega 3.130 machine—purpose-built for the production of medical textiles. Precision, structure, and comfort come together directly on the machine to create advanced functional solutions. Curious to see what’s possible next? Join us at @techtextil_texprocess in Germany from 21.04. - 24.04.2026 to meet the Vega and discover the new knit developments we’ve been working on. See you there !
The glove presented is equipped, for a first in the 3D medical field, with a raster intarsia which displays a flashable QRcode. Program created with Model+2.0 @Techtextil_Texprocess
Our end-of-yarn detection system uses real-time weight monitoring to anticipate when a bobbin is about to run out. This allows operators to replace it at the right moment - before interruption occurs. ✔️ No more unexpected stops ✔️ No more knots in finished knitted products ✔️ Improved efficiency and consistent quality A simple idea, powered by precise measurement, making industrial knitting more reliable than ever.
Introducing Vega Medical — the first knitting machine 100% designed for orthopedic and medical applications. Until now, medical manufacturers had to rely on fashion-adapted machines. With Vega M, we changed the game. Our Stitch Lab experts engineered a solution built exclusively for medical needs, optimized for in-lay elastic yarns and uncompromising performance. The result ? - A new benchmark in efficiency. - A machine that boosts Overall Equipment Efficiency across the board — availability, productivity, and compliance — setting a higher standard for the industry. - Purpose-built. Performance-driven. Medical ready. - Available with 130 cm or 90 cm needle bed. - Ready to knit fully automatic custom-made products. - Programming with the new Model + 2.0 (still compatible with Model 9)

It`s official ! SolarStratos has just made history by becoming the highest solar-powered electric aircraft ever built ! The pilot Raphaël Domjan reached a record altitude of 9,521 meters above the majestic Swiss Alps. Thanks to its carbon fiber parts knitted on our Steiger machines, this feat is a stunning demonstration of the performance and reliability of our technology. Congratulations and thank you to the incredible teams at SolarStratos and Steiger for their hard work, passion, and vision. We are immensely proud to contribute to this extraordinary adventure, a true showcase of our expertise and the future of clean aviation. . . . #steiger #steigertextil #cixing #climatechange #innovation #decarbonation #solarstratos #3dknitting #knittechniques...

Discover Necto, a cutting-edge installation at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2025, Italy, showcasing a 3D knitted web of natural fibers designed by SO–IL, Mariana Popescu, and TheGreenEyl. Produced on Steiger knitting machines. Photographed by Iwan Baan, Necto is exhibited in Room 3 of the Natural Intelligence section from May 10th to November 23rd, 2025. This innovative structure employs a tension-based system and computational design processes. Necto`s surface is crafted from natural fibers, produced in strips and optimized using computational modeling. The design team ensured Necto`s portability by dividing it into parts for transport and assembling it on-site without heavy machinery. Following the exhibition, Necto will be disassembled and repacked for future use, leaving no trace behind. Necto represents a pioneering exploration of form-finding using textiles, adaptable enough to change shape according to spatial and curatorial requirements.
Steiger`s technical department has various tools to optimize machine design. Digital simulation is one of them, and is used in particular to optimally size certain complex parts. . . . #steigertextil #steiger #cixing #knittingmachine #technologies #swissmade 🇨🇭...
