Biancalani
Three famous Finishing Machines
Milla, Airo & Spyra meeting the market needs & latest trends

Biancalani is famous in the field of designing machines for ennobling fabric. Its renown and prestige have been won over by almost 50 years of activity by means of precise, original realisations that have always been surprising due to their innovative character, and that in time have become solid references for all operators in the sector.


Airo: washing, softening and drying machine

Today with more than 1,000 machines worldwide, one can certainly define Biancalani as one of the leaders in the sector of fabric ennoblement technology. Being an export-oriented company, 90% of the production is sold to foreign markets and Biancalani is committed to offer first class products and after-sales service.
AIRO testifies how this Prato-based company has succeeded in meeting the market's demands and creating a trend: Installed all over the world in hundreds of textile industries, AIRO is a finishing machine that has revolutionised production in all sectors, from traditional to technical fabrics, from clothing to interior decoration, from knitwear to synthetic leather, offering added value to the final product, thanks to its highly versatile capacity to soften, transform, and add volume and draping to the textile products.

Spyra: continuous/discontinuous tumbling machine

Recently the research and innovation of Biancalani resulted in a new machinery, SPYRA, that in a little more than two years from its presentation, has already been installed in many mills all over the world.
The latter machine, which is absolutely original and innovative, is the exact type of convincing response to the production needs of every customer, thanks to its ability to adapt itself both to large standardised productions and also to small, more differentiated productions. With its ten tumblers, SPYRA carries out a continuous rope-form softening and drying treatment, and confers the utmost natural compaction which a textile product is capable of obtaining. In practice, it is the replica of the traditional tumbler treatment but has been made continuous: a new instrument for a high-quality result!
And just recently the new SPYRA 6 Compact has been announced. This version, which has 6 tumblers for both continuous and discontinuous treatments as always, completes the SPYRA range, and is intended for all companies that require quality and added value in their products, but also efficacy and productive functionality. It is a machine of considerable interest for the finishing sector.
Within the products range it is also included:
IDRA® by Biancalani is modular milling-washing machine with four independent channels. IDRA is the forefront for milling machines, since it allows a substantial reduction of manpower, energy and time due to a totally automated execution along with a guarantee of quality and standards of excellence.
MILLA® is the newcomer for traditional milling machines. It features four channels, high capacity and a high quality/price ratio. Thanks to the use of the most up to date technologies available such as PLC, operator panel with touch-screen and inverters for the control of the main motor of the milling cylinders, Milla guarantees great productivity, reliability, easy maintenance and simplicity of use. The machine is provided with an automatic pneumatic lightening system for the upper roller, to avoid squeezing and/or creasing of the fabric. Moreover, an air jet device provides a safe rope opening at the exit of the milling plate. As always, Biancalani encounters the market and creates a trend.
