OverHead Travelling Cleaners

Compatible. Efficient. Robust.

From a unique product innovation to a significant global presence, from one product improvisation to the entire product category, from a joint-venture partnership between India and Germany, to every corner of the world, our leap into the world of OHTCs was a significant intervention to the textile machinery manufacturing industry.

Compatibility is key when it comes to OHTCs. SIMTA Jacobi OHTCs function effortlessly on speed frames, ring spinning frames, auto and manual cone winders, doubling machines, open end spinning machines, warping, twisting machines, Airjet Spinning Machine, chenille machines, end wall cleaning and weaving machines.
