MODERN AUTOMATIC ROTOR
SPINNING MILL
NEW
AUTOCORO 8 HIGH-TECH REVOLUTION IN ROTOR SPINNING
An innovative machine concept using single-drive
technology is built in the machine. Every spinning position is autonomous and
individually automated. Single drives have been used in the Autocoro and in the
BD series for nearly 10 years, and have been an established feature of the
Autoconer winding for over 20 years.
The new precision rotor reveals the technological
advancement. Instead of a belt drive, the rotor is driven singly and enrirely
electronically. The rotor motor in the new spinbox SE 20 is designed for speeds
of up to 200,000 rpm.
On the Autocoro 8, each spinning position forms a
self-contained production unit. The spinning and winding processes of each spinning
position are autonomous, and piecing, too, is fully integrated in the spinning
position. This means that every spinning position is automated – no more
waiting times for central automated units. The result is higher efficiently
ratings, even for raw materials that call for frequent piecing or particularly
stringent settings for yarn quality monitoring. Even higher rotor speeds are
not taboo when using this new technology.
During full production, lot changing, a productivity
killer on previous rotor spinning machines, can be carried out on the Autocoro
8. It simply changes the lot ‘flowing’; one lot smoothly follows the other
without tedious and unproductive lot competition and run-up of the new lot. The
same goes for test packages. While some spinning positions with Pilotspin are
producing different test packages for the laboratory and customers, the other
spinning positions simultaneously continue production in an entirely normal
manner. The restrictions of long machines in terms of take-up speeds now also
are a thing of the past. 300 m/min can be achieved with any machine length on
the Autocoro 8.
