Electronic Yarn Detector to replace the mechanical yarn detector system on Autocoro Open-End Rotor Spinning Machines

The Electronic Yarn Detector is maintenance free and wear resisting.

Disadvantages of mechanical yarn detectors:

  • Central adjustment of winding tension for the whole machine according to the reliability of the most unfavourable yarn detector to avoid unmotivated release
  • This tension level often exceeds the technological requirements by far and results in yarn elongation loss
  • Alternating mechanical yarn detectors often cause unnecessary fibre feed before the spinning position is actually stopped, what increases good fibre loss
  • High maintenance costs to avoid over-feeding due to malfunctioning mechanical yarn detectors

The Electronic Yarn Detector easily solves all these problems of the mechanical yarn detector.
