HOW COTTON COST, MACHINE PRODUCTIVITY, AND POWER TARIFFS AFFECT SPINNING MILLS.

A study examines the influence of fluctuating cotton prices on yarn production costs in Indian spinning mills. O the average, cotton prices comprise 65, 55, and 48 percent of the eventual retail proce of yarns spun in 20/1-30/1, 40/1-60/1, and 80/1-100/1 counts, respectively. Analysis shows that machine productivity is the most improtant ..

Higher Performance Direct Beaming.

The BEN-Direct direct beaming machine features the BEN-Vac dust extraction system that removes the dust releaased from running yarns. The system removes dust after it has condensed in the airstream from the creel; a winding zonehood is fitted with a suction duct linked to the BEN-Vac in order to protects worder health and allows higher sp..

Studies of Autolevelers in Drawframes.

Researchers measured cotton yarn count variations that occurred during processing on a 3/3 drafting system fitted with a short term, closed loop autoleveler. It ws possible to spin yarns with a coefficient of variation (CV) in yarn counts of between 1.2-1.4 percent with the autoleveler drawing was sufficient. Because the yarn count CV imp..

Innovative Landmark In High Performance Beaming.

A new generation of direct beamin installations comprises a direct beaming machine, a V-creel, a flexible yarn tension control device, and a balloon separator. Benvac's dust extraction systems improve beaming system speed and performance by reducting the amount of free fiber fly and dust at the unwinding frame, size box, and dry dividng z..

Mastering The Spinning Process With Computer Integrated Spinning (CIS).

The machines i modern spinning mills are becoming increasingly complicated to control, have expanding production capabilities, incroporate varying degrees of automation, and require fewr operatios. Thus, it is becoming increasingly important to ge able to survey the entire operation from a single point. CIS systems. developed entire opera..

CANlink And CUBIcan -- Integrated Can Transportation Systems For The Spinning Mill.

Rieter CANlink and CUBIcan systems enhance material folw in spinning mills. The CANlinke system postions three rows of cans between tow directly linded Rieter SB and RSB draw frame machines. The outer rows are extended, driven lanes for inlet and outlet of the rotary can changer of the SB draw frame. The middle, undriven row, serves as fe..

Yarn Conditioning -- The Quality Advantage.

Xorella manufactures yanr steaming and conditioning machinery and equipment. The major application of its Contexxor system is in the tratment of cototn and cotton blend yarns after spinning and winding for both knitting and weaving. Processing on the COntexxor system increases yarn strength, yarn elongation, and moisture content. Moisture..

Hollingsworth--Lintmaster Opener/Cleaner.

When processing cotton, Hollingworth's Limtmaster increases overall fiber length while reducing neps and short fiber content. The fiber is opened by four Cardmaster plates located on the main cylinder. A carding segment located under the lickerin roll provides additional opening. A main cylinder allows high speed operation that ensures cl..

GRINDING OF SPINNING CYLINDER COTS.

Mechanical and chemical damage to the surfaces of spinning cylinder cots require grinding to repair. Abrasion causes the mechanical damage. oxidation causes the chemical damage. A detector pin linked with a traveling unit mechanically measures surface roughness. When a cot is too smothe, its coeficent of friction and drafting efficeincy d..

CHANNEL SPINNING -- A NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR COTTON SPINNING.

During channel spinning, fibers are sucked into a motionless, straight channel, deposited on an inner collecting groove, combined with the yarn tial, and mechanically twisted together. This technique offers several advantages over other spinning systems. Since the fiber and yarn move parallel to the inner collecting groove, the effective ..
