PROCESS AUTOMATION THROUGH SPINCONTROLCENTER II.

Rieter's Spincontrolcenter II (SCC II) is profiled. The SCC II is a fully programmable process control unit designed to electronically coordinate and supervise the operation of Rieter's RU 14, RU 14-A, and R 1 series rotor spinning machines. The unit is capable of interfacing with other computer systems. The SCC II rapldly analyzes incomi..

EFFECTS OF LINT CLEANING ON FIBER AND YARN QUALITY

The effects of lint cleaning on cotton fiber and yarn quality were studied. Rieter's Monocylinder preparation machinee, with or without one or two ERM B5/5 units, were used to process each lot of cotton with one, two, or three major cleaning points. Normal and aggressive cardings were performed on each lot. The effect of the number of cle..

MEASUREMENT OF FIBER LENGTH AFTER CARDING

The Wool Research Organization of New Zealand (WRONZ) has developed and standardized a test for measring wool fiber length after carding. The new test method and testing device avoid many of the problems associated with earlier length measurement methods. The test device reproduces carding action in a controlled atmosphere. measurements a..

Air- Jet && Ring Spun Yarns

A study investigated the influence of air jet and ring spun yarns on polyester viscose fabrics woven on Dornier rapier looms. Fabrics woven from ring spun yarn showed a slightly lower level of thickness when compared with fabrics woven with air jet spun yarn. Fabrics woven from air jet spun yarns showed higher bending length and flexural ..

The Effect of the Spinning Process on Wool-Fibre Crimp

Wool fiber properties, such as crimp, length, and thickness, affect the bulk or thickness of worsted yarn. Crimp is a particularly important property. When free from applied tension, crimp configuration is multiplanar. Research on the effect of spinning on crimp generated quantitative data on the loss of crimp after various processing sta..

Automation of Wool Top Making Plant through the Integrated Process System

Sant'Andrea Novara's LINEA 123 integrated processing system has applications in the automation of the manufacture of wool top. A description of its construction and operations focuses on its high level of productivity and flexibility. The system continuously processes wool, performing doubling and drafting operations conventionally requir..

The Extraction of Dust and Fibre Blends via Metallic Filter Media.

Second stage textile filter media usually result in excellent extraction of dust and short fibers. However, second stage separation filtering systems carry high costs. They require systems for cleaning the exhaust air for regenerating the second stage tex

Production of Fine Yarns from Partially Etherified Jute Fibre

Research on the manufacture of fine yarns from partially etherified jute fiber used a control jute fiber and butyl and dodecyl substituted jute fiber. Measurements of physical properties included linear density, tenacity, extensibility, and moisture regai

Use of ceramic elements in the textile industry

Ceramic components for the textile industry include guides and finishing pins in extrusion spinning, texturing false-twist pins, friction discs, tensioners, stop motions in creeling, and cutting blades. There are notes and illustrations of some of these ceramic ancillary devices.

Comparison of high-performance spinning methods with regard to the spinning of 100％ polyester

The importance of polyester fibres in the short-staple sector is growing. These fibres are processed primarily in the form of blends with cotton and synthetic fibres, through a certain amount is also spun unblended, ie 100％ polyester. The effect of the particular properties of the polyester fibres on spinning behaviour and yarn propertie..
