Determination of sliver evenness, yarn evenness, yarn hairiness.
Nowadays, a higher level of automation and a short reaction time to irregularities in the production process are key factors for a modern quality control system.
Measurable variables supplied by the system are the variation coefficient of the mass distribution along the yarn length, the spectrogram, and for staple fibre yarns, the number of neps, thick- and thin places (imperfections). Now all relevant parameters for sliver, rovings and yarns can be determined with one testing device and thus optimal running behaviour for the spinning machine can be ensured.
Test basics
Yarn evenness is tested across a wide yarn fineness range in accordance with ISO 16549.
A modern, integrated laser sensor generate the basis of the automatic measurement of yarn hairiness.
Determination of the total yarn hairiness and the hair length classification is made on this basis.
Saurer's solution for intelligent data collection and analysis
The Saurer solution for intelligent data collection and analysis includes networking between the Saurer Autolab laboratory system, Saurer machines and mill management system Senses. This means that in addition to being able to display and evaluate the production data of machines from Saurer and third-party providers from across different production areas, the quality data of the laboratory systems can also be displayed and evaluated in a single application.
