Mayer launches path breaking spinning cum knitting technology
At the recently concluded Olympics of the Textile industry – ITMA 2011 in Spain, Germany’s Mayer & Cie, introduced a combined spinning-knitting machine – Spinit, which eliminates the need to spin the yarn on ring spindles as well as package it on cones.
For the first time since the first circular knitting machine was introduced, a large extent of the spinning process as well as the entire knitting process has been united in one single jersey machine. The combination allows the production of almost spiral free fabrics along with high savings potential, says Mayer & Cie.
Mayer & Cie, the world’s leading circular knitting machine builder by revenues was developing the Spinit at the company’s headquarters in Albstadt for a number of years. As per Mayer & Cie, 25 Spinit machines can produce the equivalent of 20,000 ring spinning spindles, 380 winding heads and 20 high speed circular knitting machines.
Spinit is made up of a roving, roving sensor, 3-roller drafting unit, spinning nozzle and circular knitting machine. Mass variation and foreign matter contamination is detected and eliminated during the running process.
Mayer adds that the machine mounted drafting unit has a maximum delivery speed of 250m/min and the maximum delivery speed of the drafting unit is 10 times faster than in ring spinning.
New Garnett-e-Controls system launched at ITMA
Garnett Controls Ltd (UK) launched their new generation retrofit control systems for textile machinery at ITMA, Spain aimed at replacing traditional inefficient drive systems with economic, easy to use, and expandable systems.
Utilising the latest in touch screen technology which Garnett pioneered in the retrofit carding sector, the new range of panels are targeted at the company’s principal area of activity, carding, spinning and nonwovens, as well as an increasingly wide spectrum of applications both inside and outside the textile sector. Reduction of energy consumption within a plant is a key attribute of the new Garnett-e- Controls system with a number of recent installations returning high savings.
The launch of the latest generation of fibre weight control systems complimented the new operator control interfaces in Barcelona. The new Microweigh XL8+ is the most accurate and advanced card feeding system for carding and technical nonwoven applications including medical textiles where the latest GAMP standards are applicable.
The new model incorporates enhanced data options making on-line quality analysis possible within client’s own infrastructure. In addition a new style of efficient anti-vibration mounts is being introduced, further enhancing the proven stability associated with the units.
For higher production applications the Rollaweigh feed control system, which has become a virtual standard in many dry-laid nonwoven plants internationally, provides volumetric continuous control at unlimited production rates. The Rollaweigh 8+ series incorporates a reduction in overall tare weight whilst at the same time enhancing structural stability, and taking advantage of the company’s new mounting system….Read More…
