Patent drawing of CMC's Quick Thread pattern attachment.
The inspiration for innovation happens in an instant. It is impossible to predict the exact moment or elements required for genius to strike. But in the tufting machine industry, CMC has always been on the leading edge of technology. Our many patents show our dedication to creating the most versatile, productive machines possible.
But inspiration is just the start. Good companies have a disciplined process to transform the genius of a moment into a refined product that is ready for the market. That comes from listening to you...
Our latest tufting machine innovation is a perfect example. The INFINITY pattern attachment, which has a servo-driven mechanism controlling each yarn independently, gives carpet manufacturers multiple pile-height capability at every needle. In other words, there are no repeats across the width of the carpet or rug (or you can choose your own repeat size). This gives you tremendous freedom in creating patterns with free-flowing designs, geometrics, textures, and shading effects. We have also eliminated the need for a tube bank on the INFINITY, allowing yarns to be fed directly to the needle. As a result, you gain ultimate control over each stitch.
 The INFINITYattachment was voted by the American Floorcovering Alliance members as Floor Tek Expo Product Design/Innovation of the Year for 2003. Two of our customers, Shaw Industries and Interface, both won 2003 NeoCon Gold awards for products made on the INFINITY. (Shaw won for broadloom carpet and Interface for carpet tiles.)
We believe that innovation is at the heart of value creation. And because an innovator is never satisfied, we will always be working to create solutions for the worldwide tufted carpet industry.
