KTF/100HPS
The KTF/100HPS devices are controlled by an internal microprocessor providing great
versatility
(parameters may be programmed depending on the various yarn machining
conditions).
The KTF/100HPS device considerably reduces the preparation tasks, thanks to a single
self-threading ceramic eyelet that makes the operator job easier.
The tension value displayed on KTF/100HPS’s LCD indicates the actual tension with
which the device is working. This guarantees a constant and accurate monitoring of the
working process.
Advantages obtained by using the KTF/100HPS devices
!
Constant yarn tension both when the machine speed changes and when the yarn
packages gradually get empty.
!
Best efficiency by eliminating the yarn breakage
(tears and extratensions),
and
possibility to work at the highest speed offered by the machine.
!
Possibility to work with a wide range of yarn types including:
- Very thin yarns, such as bare elastomers 11/17 DTEX.
- Very difficult yarns, such as covered elastomers
- Elasticised yarns either bare or covered
- Nylon, cotton, etc.
!
Yarn tension graduation capability, with 0.1 g. resolution
(INC/DEC function
-
BTSR
Patent).
!
Accurate yarn feeding speed measurement
(1 to 1500 m/min) – (LFA m/min = Length
of Absorbed Yarn).
!
Optimisation of yarn consumption and less difficulties to keep the correct size of
manufactured products.
!
Drastic reduction of yarn consumption
(8% to 15% for bare elastomers, 2% - 5% for
covered elastomers).
!
Better quality of manufactured product
(defect free)
and drastic drop of second choice
production.
!
Constant keeping of set size, independently of the yarn package emptying condition.
!
Possibility to use the yarn up to the complete package emptying.
!
Better machine efficiency.
!
Possibility to feed the strap elastic or wrist band, guaranteeing a constant compression
(hosiery machines).
!
Possibility to perform gradual compression with no limits, and with a minimum
resolution of 0.1 grams.
!
Efficiency optimisation on machines that use the yarn in non-continuous mode (Start-
Stop), thanks to the possibility to draw back immediately the yarn fed in excess
(Mode 04 – BTSR Patent)
.
!
Full control of yarn presence, even during the “LEARN” phase performed with the
SMART KTF 2000 control terminal.
(Mode 04 – BTSR Patent)
.
!
Possibility to find the best application conditions of KTF/100HPS device:
(No of coils
to be wound around the roller, ideal programming values for parameters etc),
thanks
to the continuous visualization, in graphic form, of both average and peak values of
yarn tension.
