Textile frame

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simple clamping of the fabric in a textile frame

Textile stretching frames are special frames into which textiles are clamped.

In contrast to conventional frames, the fabrics do not have to be fastened with clamps, but can be clamped so that the fabrics are not damaged and different textiles can be exchanged quickly . The textile stretching frames are made of aluminum in order to keep the weight as low as possible and to facilitate the attachment.

functionality

You can clamp a fabric in the textile frame without having to use clamps or the like. The guiding, clamping and tensioning of the continuous web of material is mostly achieved by clip or needle chains. Modern textile stretching frames have a rubber lip that ensures that the textile is neither damaged nor slipped. No special tools are required for this.

Wall mounting of a textile frame

Textile stretching frames are available both with a visible frame and frameless. In order to be able to stretch the fabric without creases, the frame or the fastening is first attached to the wall. Then the rubber piping , which was sewn onto the edge of the textile , is inserted into the groove provided .

Possible applications

Since textile stretching frames are among the mobile presentation systems, they are often used at trade fairs . Depending on the fabric chosen, additional lighting (partly integrated in the frame) can create certain effects. Textile stretching frames can be used both as a POS display and as an actual frame on promotion and trade fair stands. In addition, they can be used specifically as room dividers , as they can also be mounted free-standing or hanging.

Since the textile frame can be used in a variety of ways, it is also suitable for use in business premises and in the private sector. The frames can be used purely as wall pictures, but can also be used as room dividers.

Advantages of textile tension frames over other fastening systems

  • Transport plays an important role in large-format frames for trade fairs. The textile stretcher frames can be shipped disassembled, so that transport and logistics costs can be kept very low.
  • Since the textile frame is made of aluminum, it is very light and can be easily transported, but also attached. Plus, there's no risk of it warping over time.
  • The bracket can be attached to the wall with normal tools and the textiles can be clamped in the frame without special tools.
  • Due to the easy handling, the motifs can be exchanged quickly and easily ( advertising material ).
  • Due to the uncomplicated exchange of different motifs, there is no need to use PVC panels. The fabrics and printing inks used are also PVC-free, odorless, meet the standards of fire protection class B1 and are therefore significantly more environmentally friendly.
  • Since the fabrics are not damaged, they can be used for other purposes after they have been used without damage. Since the canvases are made of wrinkle-free material, they can be sent folded or stored and used again at any time.
  • In contrast to many other picture frames , the textile frame is very discreet and the motif is always in the foreground.
