Spinning Efficiency with Fibre Shield

Spinning Efficiency with Fibre Shield


Rieter has been constantly pursuing further development of its machines. In addition to fundamental innovations such as new preparation and spinning processes or new machine models with significantly improved properties, detail improvements based on new developments are also implemented. One example of this is the new "fibre Shield" for the compact spinning machine.

It is a well-known fact that in Rieter’s compact spinning process, in contrast to ring spinning, after the draw frame the fibres are fed over a perforated drum in which a vacuum is created. This produces a dense fibre bundle with uniformly oriented, parallel fibres. Marginal fibres can therefore be integrated virtually completely into the fibre bundle, which increases material utilisation (strength) and reduces hairiness.

Soiling reduced by 40 - 60%: As market leader, Rieter has continuously optimised this system over the past 12-years and achieved a high level of efficiency. An analysis of the system has now brought to light a possibility for further improving the reliability of the compacting unit. The so-called "fibre Shield" system is a completely new development consisting of a "Top" and "Bottom fibre Shield". It prevents fibres from being sucked in from the spinning mill environment, which would otherwise in some cases result in an accumulation of fibres in the compacting unit. This would have an adverse effect on compacting and thus also on yarn properties.

Soiling can be reduced by 40 - 60% by means of the "fibre Shield". In addition to even more consistent yarn quality, the number of maintenance cycles can be significantly reduced, thus enabling labour savings to be made. Reduced downtimes, higher system availability: The benefit for customers is very soon apparent. A reduction in the number of maintenance cycles results in higher machine efficiency. Higher yarn output is the direct benefit for the customer. Yet, another major innovation from Rieter to enhance customer benefits.
