WORLD'S HEAVIEST DUTY FLANGER GAP X5 sews all thickness quilted panels, faster.
Power Trac Technology continues to dominate the flanging market
The GAPX5 Serger Flanger is the world's fastest, and heaviest duty serger flanger. In addition to its bone crushing quilt compression and Formula 1 speed (4800rpm) it boasts the world's highest presser foot and needle lift. At over 1.50", operators of any skill level can now quickly load and unload the thickest and most stubborn quilts with precision, and ease.
The GAPX5 is the latest in a continuing series of flanging machines known world wide for their unparalleld reliability, speed, power, and high quality sewing finish.
From their beginnings nearly 30 years agao, each of the Galkin flangers are known for their characteristic Power Trac belt, a patented feeding system that allows operators to sew any thickness quilt at higher speeds than conventional walking foot flange machines.
VP of Galkin Business Development, Michael Lydick claims that the X5 represents a new direction of thought in flanging technology:
"The GAPX5 Flanger combines over 30 years of operator, mechanic, and factory owner comments and suggestions into a single machine. It uses some of the most advanced machining and assembly techniques available today. It's like a modern day tank with needles...there isn't a quilt sewn in the world today that this machine can't serge and flange."
And factories around the world all agree.
The GAPX5 Flanger is sewing some of the heaviest quilts sewn in companies like Simmons, Sealy, Kingsdown, and King Koil.
..."These companies are known for pushing their equipment to the edge, and quilting some of the heaviest density and more exotic foams....we've seen 4" high density foam quilts come through here and thought, 'Holy cow...how are they even getting that through the quilting machine'. But we always send back the X5 sewn samples, and people are just blown away..."
The GAPX5 can be purchased with a full assortment of accessories and optional support equpiment to accomplish a wide variety of tasks and suit a full range of needs - ranging from a stand alone sit down workstation to a full scale integrated ergonomic air table with 16" of vertical travel for multiple shift adjustment.
