On show will be the globally top-selling machine UCC548E and the exclusive Sino SL-4 TC.
ShanghaiTex takes place from November 25-28 with Terrot located in hall W5, booth number F01.
The UCC548E is described as a double-electronic machine with electronic needle selection in the cylinder and dial that is ideal for the production of functional sport and leisure textiles.
With great flexibility and a high production output, the UCC548E features a wide variety of applications while producing single and double jersey combinations.

This model has a maximum machine speed up to 21 rpm while a speed factor of 720 guarantees high production output available in different gauge settings ranging from E14 up to E 28.
“The UCC548 E is a high-speed model that is able to produce different fabric weights and designs – ideal for smaller and constantly changing markets,” says Terrot. “Due to their outstanding efficiency and quality, Terrot electronic machines have become well- established on the international market and earned the customers trust worldwide.”
The second exhibition model is the sinkerless Sino SL-4 TC. This model is described as an easy and extremely efficient single jersey production for leisure and outerwear fabrics.
