1. Automatic Bale-Opening and Feeding Lines

In the preparatory departments of the textile mills take place actions for bale-opening and
feeding of the card machines. The transportation and unpacking of the incoming bales, e.g.,
cotton bales and ready laps involved much hand labor in the recent past. As an alternative, an
automated cotton bale-opening machine is shown in Figure 8.1. It comprises two main
assemblies: a motionless channel (see 10 in figure) for the cotton transportation and a moving
unit (4) for taking off the material. This unit is mounted on the frame,(13)

FIGURE 8.1.
Automated bale-opening machine.
which slides down the railway alongside the transportation channel. The cotton bales are placed
on both sides of the channel. Approximately 200 bales with different sorts of cotton of variable
height can be processed simultaneously. The take-off unit (4) is programmed in accordance with
the type of the selected mixture. It takes off parts of the material by means of the discs (1),
actuated by the AC motor (2). The depth of penetration into the bale is controlled by the rods (3).
The pressing force of the unit (4) is controlled according to the readings of a pneumatic sensor.
The signal is forwarded to a microprocessor controller (usually a general-purpose PLC) which
commands a pneumatic cylinder (5) to change the elevation of the unit (4). The material then
goes into pneumonic-channels (8,9) and the transportation channel (10). The subsequent
machines are fed through the channel (12) by means of a transporting ventilator. A magnetic
catcher placed inside the channel (12) prevents the penetration of metallic bodies into the feeding
system. The take-off unit (4) moves along the railway at a speed of 0.1–2.0 m/s, driven by the
AC motor (7). It can make turns of 180 degrees at the end of the railway and then process the
bales on the opposite side. The frame (13) and the bearing (14) accomplish this, while the
position is fixed by the lever (15). The productivity of these machines approximates 2000 kg/h,
and they usually feed up to two production lines simultaneously, each of them processing a
different kind of textile material mixture.

1.2 Automation in RIETER of the blow room section:

THE UNIFLOC A11 OPERATING PRINCIPLE: The A 11 UNIfloc processes cotton from all
sources and manmade fibers in staple lengths of up to 65 mm. The bales being opened are placed
lengthwise or crosswise on both sides of the bale opener, and the take-off unit can process up to
four different assortments. Reduction of the raw material into micro tufts is assured by the
patented double teeth on the take-off roller and the grid with
closely set clamping rails. The unique geometry of the double teeth ensures the uniform
treatment of the entire bale surface. Retaining rollers traveling with the take-off unit prevent bale
layers from sloughing and ensure precise, controlled operation over the entire height of the bale.
The take-off unit is lowered by a preselected or computed distance at each pass. Running-in and
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

running-out programs compensate for the differing hardness of the bales over their cross section
and ensure a uniform level of production. The fan incorporated in the swiveling tower extracts
the opened tufts and feeds them into the tuft channel running between the guide
rails. Transport to the following machine is pneumatic.

Operating principle of the A 11 UNIfloc automatic bale opener

INTEGRATED BALE PROFILING

Bale Profiling guarantees totally uniform bale take-off . The height profile of the bale lay-down
is precisely detected by light barriers and memorized. Scanning is performed at a constant speed
of 9 m/min. Tufts are already taken off in the profiling phase. Continuous feeding of the
subsequent machines is thus ensured from the outset. During the subsequent passes the bales are
opened at the preselected speed of travel and take-off depth. In the process the system
automatically compensates for differences in height in the bale profile. Labor-intensive manual
leveling is eliminated. After the required height range, take-off depth and speed of travel have
been entered for each group of bales, take-off proceeds fully automatically.

CONSISTENTLY HIGH OPERATIONAL READINESS

The double teeth enable maintenance intervals to be halved. The teeth are mounted individually.
They can easily and quickly be replaced if required, without removing the take-off roller. This
explains the exceptionally high operational readiness of the A 11 UNIfl oc.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

Automation in TRUTZCHLER of the blow room section:

BLENDOMAT BO-A:
There are many good solutions, but only one optimal solution
Trützschler offers high-performance blow room installations for production rates of 1,000 or
2,000 kg/h. They are unique with regard to their economic efficiency. But often, this high
performance is not required. Therefore, Trützschler has developed Eco Line.
Eco Line is the most economic solution up to 750 kg/h
It is even more compact, requires less space, has a reduced energy consumption and is still
flexibly adjustable to individual requirements. The working width of the most important
machines of this new line was reduced to 1200 mm. This saves space and driving energy.

Alternatively or in combination with the manually fed Bale

The Automatic Bale opener BLENDOMAT BO-A can also be used.

Compact and yet highly flexible

No compromises with regard to flexibility:
• The bales can certainly be opened with the Automatic Bale Opener BLENDOMAT BO-A. In
case of limited floor space availability, however, the newly developed Bale Opener BO-E can
also be used.
• Depending on the contamination of the cotton it might be convenient to add a Pre-Cleaner CLP
to the new CLE NOMAT Cleaner CL-C 1 1200.
• When processing manmade fibers an Opener TUFTOMAT TO-T 1 is used.
• Whether the use of a Mixer MX-U or an Integrated Mixer MX-I is favorable depends on the
design of the installation. Feeding to the cards is effected via the Dust Separator SP-DX or via
one of the foreign part separators of the Trützschler product range.
• Even the formation of laps with a scutcher is possible (see special brochure Scutcher Line).
• Furthermore, the line can also be complemented by a filter installation (see brochure Compact
Filter CF).
• For very fine yarns the installation is minimized intentionally and the use of a fine cleaner and
a foreign part separation is dispensed with.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

Bale Opener BO-E:

Thorough mixing
The Bale Opener BO-E has a feed table with a length of 2.8 m. For particularly thorough mixing
and long runtimes without operation, it can be extended by up to 10 m. Furthermore, an
adjustable evener roll ensures additional mixing improvement and uniform tuft size.
Flexible layout
The Bale Opener BO-E can be optimized for every intended application. For processing of
cotton, a pre-cleaner can be integrated. The adjustable grids facilitate easy adaptation to the
cotton quality. A bucket wheel lock ensures that the suction air has no negative influence on the
cleaning area. The bale opener can also be fed via a condenser. This condenser then drops the
material into a trunk. Next, the dosed tufts are transported by two delivery rolls into the mixing
room. This variant turns the BO-E into a pre-mixer. For instance, the material is fed by an
Automatic Bale Opener BLENDOMAT BO-A and waste is added by means of a feed lattice.
Continuous disposal
The transfer area between feed lattice and spiked lattice is suctioned off in the same continuous
manner as the mixing room. This initial dust extraction ensures that the machine remains clean
for a long time, without manual cleaning.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

Mixer MX-I and CLEANOMAT Cleaner CL-C 1:

Trützschler mixing systems offer an optimal solution for every spinning mill and every mixing
task in the sector of single component staple fiber mixing. The main advantages here are above
all:
• The direct coupling of cleaner and mixer for improved economic efficiency
• Controlled, reproducible mixing for best homogeneousness
• Optimization of mixture for uniform final product appearance Trunk mixers come first for
obtaining a specific, reproducible mix in spinning mill preparation. The trunks are filled in
sequence and emptied at the same time. This principle guarantees a maximum homogeneity of
the mix.
Two powerful mixer variants:
• Integrated Mixer MX-I
– Direct coupling of the mixer with a cleaner or opener
– Ideal for a compact installation
• Universal Mixer MX-U
– Extraction of the material by the downstream machine
– Ideal for feeding two parallel cleaners or scutchers

The Integrated Mixer MX-I is directly linked to a CLEANOMAT Cleaner CL-C 1

Clear line towards success

We have tailor-made answers for you regarding questions on the optimal solution for processing
cotton and man-made fibers in the short staple range: Cleaner CLEANOMAT and Opener
TUFTOMAT. They offer a high degree of cleaning with minimum fiber loss. Even a saving of
just 1% of raw material costs through greater yield of good fibers enables rapid amortization of
the Trützschler Cleaner. In addition to the economic efficiency, the product quality at the end of
the process is the main factor. Trützschler is also setting new yardsticks here, amongst other
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

things, with optional steeples variable drives. This perfection is consistently continued by the
TUFTOMAT system when opening the fibers. Whether you are processing polyester, acrylic,
polypropylene or viscose – with the TUFTOMAT Openers, Trützschler offers you a tailor-made
solution for every application.

Carding section:
Truetzschler Card DK 800
The Truetzschler DK 800 is a new high-production card. With its comprehensive carding
concept the DK 800 is ideally suited for modern textile mills, which want to be competitive in
the worldwide textile market. The new features of the DK 800 improve carding quality once
more and an increase in productivity can be achieved in many cases. The DK 800 card is
designed for production output of up to 100 kg/h (mechanically). There are sufficient

Licker-in and cleaning unit

Changing the amount of waste extracted at the licker-in was always a troublesome and time-
consuming operation. For this reason, the technologically necessary adaptation to the raw
material was often neglected. In practice, this meant excessive amount of waste and therefore
poor yield from the raw material. Waste extraction at the licker- in is done by two mote knives in
combination with suction hoods. With deflector blades in front of the mote knives the amount of
extracted waste can be easily fit. If the setting of these deflector blades is opened, more air
passes breath the edge of the corresponding mote knife, and therefore more waste is extracted. In
contrary, if the deflector blade setting is closed there is a reduction in the amount of waste
extracted. When man-made fibers are being processed the closed deflector blades prevent fiber
loss in the licker-in region. This ensures optimum adjustment to any raw material processed.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

Quick adjustment of the amount of extracted

waste to the raw material quality
In the DK 800 it is possible to adjust the setting in a few seconds for saving raw material. The
deflector blades in front of the mote knives can be adjusted individually from the outside.

Autoleveller
Long-term sliver count regulation
The auto leveler CORRECTACARD is standard equipment on the Truetzschler Card DK 800
and provides long-term regulation of sliver count. The funnel at the sliver exit point measures the
sliver thickness and converts the result into an electrical signal. The Card Control evaluates this
signal and adjusts the feed roll speed in relation to the deviation from the nominal sliver count.
Because the principle of measurement is by mechanical scanning. Fiber fineness, delivery speed
and type of material have practically no influence on the results. A single measuring funnel
covers the full range of sliver counts normally used.
Short-term sliver count regulation
The regulation system CORRECTAFEED provides a great improvement in the sliver count
variation. It acts over a sliver length from one meter and upwards. The tuft web thickness is
constantly being measured between the entry zone of the feed roll and the sensors which are built
into the feed table. These values are registered by a memory in the Card Control. When the
measured place is precisely at the transfer point between the feed table and the licker-in, there is
an instantaneous correction of the feed roll speed. This correction is superimposed on the basic
speed of the feed roll and the correction carried out by the long-term leveler CORRECTACARD.
The feed table is flexibly mounted according to a special design, independently of the sensors.
This ensures optimum clamping of the tuft web.

WEBSPEED and NEPCONTROL

Significant reduction in sliver breaks by Sliver
Former WEBSPEED
The web doffing system of the DK 800 has been developed with fully automatic and secure web
guiding in mind, from a simple doffer to the WEBSPEED system. Special, self adjusting and
maintenance-free seals on the sides of the cylinder prevent a contamination of the critical zones.
Quality control during production with
Nap Sensor NEPCONTROL
In the area of the web doffing unit, the Truetzschler Nap Sensor NEPCONTROL NCT can be
easily mounted below the stripper roll instead of the guiding profile. Fully automatic
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

NEPCONTROL NCT permanently counts the number of naps, trash particles and seed coat
fragments and reports it to the Card Control.
An optimal web monitoring is next to the
visual inspection
An electronic camera takes pictures of the web under the stripper roll. The camera moves about
the whole working width of the card in a special, fully closed profile. The pictures are evaluated
regarding naps and trash particles by a computer directly flanged to the profile. The measuring
principle greatly follows the visual web inspection

Card Control
Continuous quality and production monitoring
with the Card Control
The Truetzschler Card DK 800 is controlled by the new developed Card Control, which collects
and monitors all relevant data for the machine including can coiler and can changer, the leveling
devices CORRECTACARD and CORRECTAFEED.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

The Card Control collects all important data and

 Delivery speed
 Total draft
 Can filling volume
 Production rate
 Sliver count
 Web thickness (feeding)
 Pressure/bottom trunk FBK
 Speeds: FBK opening roll, feed roll, licker-in, cylinder, doffer
 Flat speed
 Metal detector
 Thick places monitoring (feeding side)
 Negative pressure suction
 Safety devices
 Sliver monitoring
RIETER
Carding C 60
Carding elements separate trash, dust and short fibers in the pre- and post-carding areas. Guiding
elements and the associated mote knives are responsible for the extraction of the impurities.
Different sets of carding elements are available to meet the requirements for a specific yarn type.
MAIN CARDING area
After the pre-carding area, the fibers enter the active carding area. Mill trials have shown that
stronger centrifugal forces support the separation and elimination of trash, short fibers and seed-
coat fragments.

AUTOMATIC wire SHARPENING

The inevitable wear of the card clothing becomes an even more crucial issue with any high
production card. The Integrated Grinding System (IGS) – a unique Rieter feature – solves this
fact fundamentally by keeping the wires sharp at all times.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

The advantages are:

 Constant sliver quality over the entire service life of the wires
 Better carding, i.e. better nap and trash elimination as a result of the constantly sharp
wires
 No downtime whilst the cylinder and flat clothing is ground because this is an automated
and computer-controlled system
 Major simplification of maintenance work
 Increased service life of the cylinder wires and thus very economical
 Ideally suited for the newest generations of cylinder wires where manual grinding is
problematic

Draw Frame

RIETER( Draw Frame SB-D 40)

Reiter was the first manufacturer to introduce the concept of single-head draw frames some 25
years ago. This concept offers
quality, flexibility and operating advantages and has since continued its victorious progress even
in traditional double-head draw frame markets.
SUPERIOR QUALITY DUE TO INDEPENDENT AUTOLEVELING SYSTEM :The
RSB-D 40 single-head auto leveler draw frame stands out for its high auto leveling and thus high
sliver quality. This is also guaranteed by the independent operation of the auto leveling system.
By contrast, a double-head auto leveler draw frame has the disadvantage – due to its design –
that the drives of both auto leveling systems are connected via a common draw frame system
delivery roller. The two auto leveling systems therefore influence each other and this results in
inferior sliver quality. A crucial factor in sliver quality is the accurate coordination of mechanical
systems, drive, electronics and software. An experienced and well-coordinated development
team resolved this decisive issue at Reiter. Double-head draw frames with auto leveling
components from different manufacturers do not produce even remotely comparable auto
leveling results. The significantly better sliver regularity and coiling free of sliver breaks on the
RSB-D 40 result in higher productivity on roving frames, spinning machines and winders as well
as higher roving and yarn quality.
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

CONSISTENT QUALITY DUE TO FEWER AUTOLEVELING SYSTEMS Especially when

several auto leveler draw frames are producing sliver for one yarn blend, accurate adjustment of
the required sliver count on each individual draw frame is of highest importance. Any incorrect
setting of the required sliver weight, caused for example by errors in determining the weight in
the laboratory, directly increases variances in yarn count throughout the blend. In mill operations
this is frequently a reason for fluctuations in yarn count. Due to the high productivity of the
RSB-D 40, the number of auto leveling adjustments is much smaller than on double-head draw
frames running slowly and with lower efficiency. Consequently, the risk of personnel-induced
fluctuations in sliver count and thus yarn count is reduced with the RSB-D 40.

PRODUCTIVITY DUE TO HIGH DELIVERY SPEED AND HIGH EFFICIENCY :The

productivity of the RSB-D 40 single-head draw frame compared to a double head draw frame is
incorrectly rated when the calculation is simply based on speeds quoted in sales literature and the
number of heads. In the case of the RSB-D 40, delivery speeds of 850 m/min are already
standard in mill operations when processing carded cotton in ring spinning applications. In rotor
spinning applications even higher delivery speeds are already reality. In addition to the
significantly higher delivery speeds of the RSB-D 40 in mill operations, production efficiency is
10% to 20% higher than that of double-head auto leveler draw frames. At each sliver break in a
feed can, can change at the in feed or delivery end, machine malfunction or maintenance
operation, only one drafting system head is stopped on the RSB-D 40 – instead of two heads in
the case of the double-head draw frame. This advantage increases with rising delivery speed. In
addition, the empty can magazine with up to 8 reserve cans, the robust rotary can changer,
trouble-free running and long cleaning intervals in the drafting system zone result in high
efficiency. Productivity is therefore also more independent of operators‘ influence.
THE RSB AUTOLEVELING PRINCIPLE
Fluctuations in sliver weight of up to ± 25% can be balanced by means of digital, high-precision
RSB auto leveling. Fluctuations in the mass of the feed slivers are detected by „tongue and-
groove“ scanning discs. In this case the signals are collected at short, constant intervals, thus
ensuring very high precision, even at maximum speed. The auto leveling processor uses the
measured signals to compute a required speed for the highly dynamic AC servo drive. This value
is transmitted to the drive exactly when the length of sliver measured reaches the drafting point
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

in the main drafting zone. The result is a sliver with outstanding short, medium and long-term
regularity.
PERFECT AUTOLEVELING STARTS WITH SCANNING ACCURACY Perfect auto leveling
starts with the accuracy of feed sliver scanning. Errors made here can be corrected neither by a
control algorithm nor by higher drive dynamics. Compared to other tongue-and-groove scanning
systems, RSB scanning stands out for its very high precision. The vibration-damping structure of
the scanning unit, the use of a belt drive instead of sluggish bevel gears and the use of absolutely
temperature-stable sensors are only a few of the features on which the legendary RSB precision
is based. The RSB scanning system‘s pair of rotating „tongue and groove“ scanning discs
measure the feed slivers without friction. There are therefore no deposits – in contrast to a
stationary measuring lever – and the sensor system provides precise readings over a long period
without the need for maintenance.

The RSB sensor system applies higher scanning forces and can therefore also accurately scan
fiber slivers of differing bulk. This is especially useful when feed cans are in intermediate
storage for differing periods, since fiber sliver bulk then differs especially from can to can. Only
RSB scanning guarantees correct scanning readings and thus the highest possible sliver count
consistency, independently of the influence of operating personnel or material flow.
QUALITY DUE TO FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS IN SCANNING New and
geometrically further optimized „tongue-and-groove“ scanning discs are used in the RSB-D 40.
Measured-value resolution and thus the accuracy of mass readings has therefore been
significantly improved. Scanning disc loading with a newly developed, high-precision spring
instead of compressed air ensures extremely robust auto leveling. Scanning force is constant, i.e.
no adjustment to the raw material specification is necessary. Some 70% of all applications can be
covered with one pair of scanning discs.
DIGITAL AUTOLEVELING SYSTEM WITH HIGHLY DYNAMIC DRIVE
Processing and implementing the precise scanning signals right through to the drafting system
calls for special know-how. The auto leveling processor processes the signals on the basis of a
sophisticated computing algorithm and transmits them to the highly dynamic, maintenance-free
AC servomotor. A planetary gear superimposes the variable speed of the servo drive on the
constant basic speed of the main motor. The servomotor therefore only has to produce the output
necessary for auto leveling and can thus be considerably smaller and therefore more dynamic
than in concepts featuring individual drive motors. Piecing in combed slivers and coilers can also
be leveled out reliably in this way.
FURTHER IMPROVEMENT IN AUTOLEVELING QUALITY ON THE RSB-D 40
The new drive concept ensures that the even more precise scanning readings are also transmitted
right through to the drafting system, resulting in better sliver quality. The smaller mass of the
 AUTOMOTION IN BLOW ROOM OR OPENNING SECTION

dynamically powered drive elements compared to the previous model contributes to this. The
drive concept with two fewer belts and the use of low-wear, ribbed V-belts improve power
transmission accuracy. Supported by the high dynamics, this concept ensures that even the
shortest sliver defects are reliably leveled out, even at delivery speeds of 1100 m/min. With the
new model, delivery speeds can be increased by at least 10% for all materials, in most cases also
with signifi cantly improved or equal yarn quality.

AUTO set self-adjusting auto leveling

AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF THE LEVELING ACTION POINT The leveling action

point is the most important setting value in auto leveling. It specific as the point at which a defect
detected between the scanning discs is leveled out in the main drafting zone of the drafting
system. Defining the leveling action point is a complicated process and calls for know-how on
the part of operating personnel. An incorrectly set leveling action point will even make sliver
quality worse than in the process without auto leveling. To date, several sliver samples had to be
produced with diff erent settings, taken to the laboratory and examined on the regularity tester
until the optimum leveling action point was found. AUTO set makes this complicated process a
thing of the past. At the push of a button, AUTO set automatically runs through all leveling
action points in approx. 1 minute. At the same time the Reiter Quality Monitor records the
resulting quality values of the sliver produced. An algorithm (patent pending) automatically
calculates the optimum leveling action point. The proposed value is accepted by the push of a
button – and that‘s it! This saves valuable time and ensures correct settings and thus superior
sliver quality, even with inexperienced personnel.

spinning pos tion (ROJ)
 separate servomotors for fl yers and spindles
 pneumatically loaded guide arms for constant pressure and maximum roving uniformity
throughout the machine
 mechanically driven creel for slip free sliver intake without false draft
 reduced maintenance due to electronic solutions for all important machine functions

ADDITIONAL ADVANTAGES OF THE F 35

 roving frame with automatic doffer
 shortest doffing time (less than 2 minutes) due to improved doffer concept
 optimum combination with Rieter SERVO trail – automated

and semi-automated roving bobbin transport to and from the ring spinning machine

THE LONGEST ROVING FRAME FOR MAXIMUM PRODUCTIVITY

The productivity of the machine increases with the number of spindles. The F 15 and F 35 roving
frames are designed for up to 160 spinning positions at a spindle gauge of 110 mm.

DRIVE SYSTEM FOR HIGH OUTPUT AND REDUCED MAINTENANCE

The proven multi-motor drive system has been optimized further. The differential gear has been
eliminated. Spindles and flyers are driven directly by individual servomotors. The control system
ensures synchronized running throughout package buildup. The main features are reduced

maintenance, lower energy consumption and speeds of up to 1 500 rpm (mechanical). The drives
are controlled by frequency converters and thus especially gentle in their treatment of the
material. Controlled machine stop is assured in the event of power failure.

IMPROVED RUNNING BEHAVIOR WITH INDIVIDUAL ROVING MONITOR

It is advisable to equip the roving frame with the ROJ individual roving monitor (optional),
especially in the case of manmade fibers, blends, dark-colored raw material and long machines.
Its main features are: no incorrect stoppages due to fiber fly individual, automatic control and
logging of roving ends down prevention of lap formation statistical analysis for systematic
improvement of running behavior This results in a considerable I crease in roving frame
efficiency.

AUTOMATION
Roving bobbin transport system
RIETER – ADVANTAGES OF A SYSTEMS SUPPLIER
As a systems supplier, Rieter plans and supplies the ideal bobbin transport system between
roving frame and ring spinning machine for different levels of automation. Rieter supplies
economical systems ranging from simple manual transport to fully automated solutions.
Integrated roving bobbin cleaning stations complement the product offering.

SERVO trail – FLEXIBLE ROVING BOBBIN TRANSPORT SYSTEM

Transporting individual roving bobbins manually from the roving frame to the ring spinning
machine is labor-intensive and often results in damage to the roving. The answer to this problem
is Rieter SERVO trail – the flexible roving bobbin

transport system.
ADVANTAGES WITH BOBBIN TRANSPORT
SERVO trail ensures a high degree of flexibility, a substantial increase in quality and
productivity, and reduced labor costs. SERVO trail systems are individually tailored solutions
ranging from simple handling systems to ingenious multi-train systems. The flexible system
enables different heights and several floor levels to be linked. Various models are offered for
integrated cleaning of roving bobbins – ranging from simple unwinding of
the remaining roving to an integrated opening unit for roving residues. The result – well
organized, space-saving production

processes and ready access to the machines.

HIGHER QUALITY
Manual or automated roving bobbin transport systems enhance
roving quality by:
 eliminating manual bobbin handling, i.e. touching the roving

 eliminating intermediate storage, which can result in damage, soiling and aging of the
roving
 eliminating the likelihood of confusion between different roving bobbins
 ensuring the application of the „first-in, first-out“ principle

RING SPINNING

Ring Spinning
The technology behind ring spinning has remained largely unchanged for many years, but there
have been significant refinements. Changes, which on their own offered only slight advantages,
provided the following synergies when combined:
· The introduction of longer frames reduced the relative costs of automatic doffing.
· The combination of spinning frame and winding (link winders) further enhanced the adoption
of automation.
· The introduction of automatic doffing meant that doffing time was reduced and thus package
(and ring) size was less critical.
· The introduction of splicing on the winder meant that yarn joins became less obtrusive — again
offering the potential of smaller package.
· Smaller rings meant that for a limiting traveler velocity (40 meters per second [m/s]), higher
rotational speeds (and hence twisting rates) could be achieved.
These combinations meant that the potential maximum speed of ring spinning was raised from
about 15,000 to 25,000 revolutions per minute.
There also have been several other proposed developments that have met with mixed success.
Drafting systems: While double apron drafting dominates, the system can be tweaked to enable
higher drafts. Recent exhibitions have featured machines operating at potential drafts of 70 to
100. The use of high drafts has significant impact on the economics of the total system.
Individual spindle drives: Several manufacturers demonstrated this possibility in the 1980s.
While the concept offered advantages with respect to lower energy requirements, less noise and
better control of speed, it suffered higher initial costs and bigger spindle gauge.

Ring Design
Several approaches to reducing the limitations of traditional rings and travelers have been
proposed. Orbit ring: This development from Rieter was aimed at increasing heat dissipation
from the traveler.
