Advantages
- Suitable for all yarn counts
- Detection of the true defect length
- Detection of contamination not affected by
yarn diameter variations
- Superior discrimination power between yarn
and contamination, which allows better
selectivity and avoids unnecessary stops
- Not sensitive to temperature fluctuations or
ambient light
- Can be installed on all types of O.E.
machines, regardless the presence of any
type of yarn clearer, safeguarding the
original investment in yarn clearers
- Easy installation and cabling
- No accumulation of dust in the detectors
- Cost effective solution
Integration with Corolab
or BarcoProfile
ABS works as stand alone (on machines
without clearers or machines with other than
BARCO clearers) and also in conjunction with
BarcoProfile or Corolab. The functionality of this
clearer can be summarized as follows:
- Absolute optical control of the yarn diameter
- Classification of defects in an 8x8 matrix
- Continuous monitoring of yarn CV%
- Fast moiré detection (<2m)
- Detection of yarn count deviations
- Special channels for sliver faults and neps
- Real-time spectrogram, histogram and CVL-
curve
- IPI values: neps, thick and thin places
- Classification of piecings and piecer motion
