Rieter is presenting the Autoconer X6 at the upcoming ITM 2022 in Istanbul (Turkey), taking place from June 14 to June 18, 2022, which further improves the attractiveness of the company’s ring and compact-spinning offering by completing the system. In addition, Rieter is showing the roving frame F 40 which doffs at 90 seconds only. SSM’s NEO-YW precision winder is launching into the European market while three key innovations in components are being introduced.

The Autoconer X6 is a globally recognized winding machine at the highest performance level, putting it on a par with all other Rieter machines. The winding machine serves as the final quality assurance in the ring and compact-spinning process and is key to the performance of the subsequent process stages.

The latest splicer generation OZ1 (Ne 20 to Ne 120 and finer) and OZ2 (Ne 3 to Ne 40) provides an optimum splice quality based on an open prism. When splicing cotton-based elastic core yarns, duo-core yarns and multi-core yarns, the open prisms are used in combination with the Elastosplicer. This has already been successfully introduced in vertically integrated mills.

The new Multilink system with Multilot offers maximum flexibility: Up to four ring spinning machines are linked to one Autoconer, with each ring spinning machine able to supply a different type of yarn.

With the integration of the Autoconer X6 into the Rieter system, the mill management system ESSENTIAL will open up over the coming years the potential for end-to-end transparency and optimization throughout all process steps.

The roving frame F 40 was already introduced to the market at ITMA 2019. A precise bobbin build-up in combination with a doffing time of 90 seconds only and the option of setting the drafting system electronically are convincing customers to invest in this machine in combination with Rieter systems.

SSM is presenting the NEO-YW precision winder which brings to bear SSM’s unmatched winding expertise into one easy-to-use and high-performing machine. NEO-YW will kick off its launch into the European market at ITM 2022.

Components for Higher Performance and Durability

The newly acquired Accotex and Temco brands are adding strength to the components family, which now includes Accotex, Bräcker, Graf, Novibra, SSM, Suessen and Temco. Rieter is presenting three key innovations at ITM.

Accotex’s new top and bottom aprons NO-79201 offer outstanding tear and abrasion resistance and superior friction properties. They can be applied universally, making service and stocking more efficient.

Temco’s intelligent bearing solution i-Bearing for filament machines allows condition monitoring online. By identifying critical conditions, bearings can be replaced before they fail which helps to minimize machine downtimes.

Today, Bräcker’s berkolizing technology of treating rubber cots with UV light to improve the surface has become an industry standard. At ITM, Bräcker is introducing the berkolizer pro which stands for consistent, energy-efficient, and adjustable UV treatment.

卷绕是纺织价值链中一个小而关键的工序。在这一工序中，纱线被紧密地卷绕在筒管上，为下一道生产工序做好准备。每一家纺纱厂都渴望能够加工出完美的卷装，以方便染色或织造等后道工序处理纱线。 

preciforce树立全新标杆
实现完美卷装的秘诀是要确保整个卷装达到一致的密度，这对于染色工序尤其重要。然而，这是一项表面看似简单，实则需在数十年专业知识的基础之上精心设计才能得以实现的工程成果。 

就在不久之前，卷绕系统还只能监测密度，而不能调节压力水平。SSM的preciforce改变了这一切，它能够调节背压力，使每一个卷装都能达到相同的密度。密度均匀的卷装可简化染色工序，进而实现更佳的染色效果。更为重要的是，染厂可节约能源和水资源，因为再也没有必要进行复染。而复染恰是不均匀卷装染色所无法避免的。 

致胜组合：preciforce与DIGICONE 2 
出色的密度均匀性确实重要，但控制成本同样意义重大。SSM公司的使命是帮助客户以尽可能低的成本和最少的浪费进行生产。卷绕是一套重复性操作，SSM工程师发现，对谷歌搜索和算法交易有用的办法对卷绕也一样行之有效，因为这些都是基于重复的连续性操作。他们开发了一种算法，以确保络筒机按照分步式程序，以最经济的方式实现紧密卷装。DIGICONE 2采用这种先进的卷绕算法开发，以确保实现最佳的卷绕精度。preciforce与DIGICONE 2构成了一个无懈可击的组合，能够以最经济的方式生产出卓越的卷装。  

此外，与普通的自动背压力系统相比，preciforce可节省约20%的能源。

SSM机器的卓越可靠性则进一步完善了这个组合，保证了机器以及备件都具有最长的使用寿命。SSM还提供世界一流的服务网络，在全球拥有10多个当地服务中心和80余家代理机构。这意味着离客户近和快速客户响应。 

The main advantage of this retrofit for the customer lies with faster and more powerful motors. Due to stronger motors the speed can be increased, default rate can be decreased and lifetime of motors is longer. All factors have a very positive impact on productivity, which is a key criteria for production.

SSM GIUDICI FT机器 (图1) 在尼龙弹力丝 (拉伸变形丝) 领域具有非常好的口碑。凭借经过优化的专件表面和独特的成纱路径，它们成为多家专注于生产优质尼龙纱线厂商的首选。而现在，涤纶弹力丝厂商也同样可以运用这些特点。SSM推出的全新变形机TG30-PES是在成熟机型理念基础上的又一次进化。

大众市场上的成本竞争十分激烈，因此新机器的投资成本具有举足轻重的影响。长轴机理念比单锭独立机器理念更具优势，因为这种设计的单锭成本更低。

H型机器TG30-PES拥有一条无止捻器的成纱路径，在加工细旦或超细旦弹力丝时具有真正的优势。这不仅适用于尼龙，而且还适用于可制成弹力丝的所有其他原料，例如涤纶、丙纶、PBT或PTT。以往，涤纶变形是通过“V型”机器加工的，缺点是工艺效率较低，最细纱支受限，维护保养成本较高

成就理想纱线质量的关键因素
纱线质量受到多项因素的影响。这些因素包括在集中加工区域 (热箱、冷却和锭子) 中进行加捻，避免成纱路径形成锐角，缩短成纱路径和避免因止捻器故障、轴承受损或陶瓷破损而可能造成的故障。短的成纱路径对提升最高生产速度具有切实的优势。纱线在一定速度下会开始振动，这种现象被称为“失稳速度”。这既会降低工艺稳定性，又会影响纱线质量的改善。

符合人体工程学要求的长轴变形机TG30-PES的另一个优点是它配备久经验证的电子横动导纱系统，而前一代机型则配备由机械凸轮系统驱动的横动导纱装置。每层的凸轮装置由单独的电机驱动。

卷装收边或横动变化等其他功能则由机械装置来执行，并且幅度受限。防叠则基于随机卷绕原理，通过简单地改变横动速度来实现。尽管这类防叠系统常见于加弹设备，但是它们无法完全避免重叠区，尤其是当加工细支纱，卷装直径增长相对较慢时。

电子横动系统的优势
SSM是电子横动系统的发明者，毫无疑问该系统也应用于SSM长轴变形机，其具有以下优势：
• 无需维护保养，无需上油/脂润滑
• 避免卷装上沾到油/脂污渍，进而污染纱线
• 采用分步精密卷绕算法DIGICONE生产无叠纱卷装，具有出色的退绕性能
• 在卷装形状、收边、鼓边补偿等方面具有完全的灵活性
• 根据特定卷装质量，用“腹带”卷绕的方式标记A/B/C级卷装，以便快速无误地分拣成品卷装

TG30-PES机器随附用于卷装评级 (A/B/C级) 的集成式在线张力和质量监测系统GQS。它与机器使用同一触摸屏终端进行操作，这一点有别于其他独立监测解决方案。

此外，新款长轴机TG3 0 - P E S上还装有加热导丝辊(图2)。 对弹力丝进行热定型以达到所需的弹力，这在当前涤纶弹力丝生产中属于领先技术，而SSM变形机则独创性地使用加热导丝辊达到相同目的。与友商使用的常规管式热箱不同，加热导丝辊的维护保养更简便，并且具有出色的人体工程学特点。

意大利设计和制造
SSM机器和系统在意大利生产，大多数部件为本地采购。每一台机器均由位于意大利北部的SSM工厂组装和测试。训练有素的员工确保机器在客户现场顺利安装和调试，并提供流畅、成功的开机服务。

开合式锭子理念
每一台SSM假捻变形机都配备开合式锭子，即使是极细的易断纱线，也能轻松生头。这样可防止错误生头并损坏摩擦片。而用插纱叉插入纱线时，则可能出现这种情况，尤其是使用聚氨酯片 (图3) 时。

SSM对“H型”机器提高工艺效率、扩展纱支范围下限和降低维护成本的优点充满信心。

有了TG30-PES，SSM为变形丝厂提供理想工具，在中到大批量商品假捻变形纱线生产的市场上保持竞争力。

涤纶弹力丝 (拉伸变形丝) 于20世纪60年代问世，自那以后便成为了商品纱线。然而，随着时间推移，涤 纶纱已逐渐演化成为多种特种纱线，涵盖粗单丝旦数(dpf)到超细长丝，甚至超微细长丝。这些纱线可用于 生产具有超柔手感的轻质面料。

具有不同截面形状的长丝能够改善汗水蒸发，或赋予面料独特的光泽。另一种特种纤维是将功能性化学品 直接包覆在聚合物中，创造出具有附加性能的面料，例如添加抗菌性以达到除臭效果，或运用人体红外线 辐射以提高体温。此外，增加原液染色POY (预取向丝) 的用量可提高色牢度，同时还因无需后道染色而提 升环保性能。

所有这些特种纤维都是新的弹力丝标准，因此对变形丝厂提出新的挑战，例如需要更高的生产灵活性，因为更多的特种纤维意味着生产批次更多，但批量更小。凭借DP5-T，SSM已经在空气变形市场取得了强势领先地位；现在它又通过推出独具灵活性的假捻变形机DP5-FT (图1) 来稳固这一市场地位。

单锭独立机器理念带来完全的灵活性
整台40个锭位的DP5-FT可设置40套不同的工艺菜单。每个锭位几乎是一台独立假捻(FT)机，各自配备热箱、控制板，以及单独驱动的可编程电机。

无需投资购买功能相同的实验机。客户只需在DP5-FT上的一个或多个锭位上开展试验和打样。之后，这些 锭位还能重新用于正常生产，以尽可能提升效率，降低打样成 本。

单锭位理念还具有节能和提高生产效率的优势。与长轴机不同的是，在某一锭位不使用时，该锭位的能耗 降除，因为所有相关的电机都停止运转。此外，当达到特定的闲置时间后，还能启动节能功能，以降低热 箱和导丝辊的温度，从而大大提升节能效果。在运行的长轴机上，常常还能看到没有纱线的锭位，这是因 为已断头的缠绕纱线无法在机器运行时安全去除，或者是由于发生故障的锭位正在等待下一次停机。而单 锭位机器则没有以上限制，因为每个锭位可单独停止运行并立即维护，从而达到更高的机器效率。

最后但同样重要的是，对把人身安全作为首要目标的生产商，DP5-FT是他们的首选设备。因为在单锭位理 念下，每台电机的功率大幅减小，降低了挡车工受重伤的风险。

灵活提高产能
DP5-FT高度灵活性体现在最少可以仅购买五个锭位，因此是新进入弹力丝市场客户的理想解决方案。它在 弹力丝批次大小、种类和纱支方面带来完全的灵活性，此外还能更好地控制供应链。如果客户后期想提 高弹力丝产能，那么该机器可在不更改机头和使用同一个机器终端的情况下，接长至多达40个锭位。

全面控制和在不停机的情况下检查
S S M 变形机的一个独到之处是配备了加热导丝辊(图4), 用于弹力丝热定型，以获得所需的弹性。这在涤 纶弹力丝纱线生产中属于创新做法。友商机型上的管式热箱因长度原因，安装在机器后部平台下方。这样 一来，挡车工无法在生产中检查热箱，也不能定期拆卸内管进行清洁。在SSM变形机上，热定型导丝辊位于机器前部，因此可在不停 机的情况下，随时对整条丝路进行全面控制和检查。用导丝辊取代预定长度的管式热箱后，挡车工还能通过增加或减少导丝辊上绕纱圈数来调节热定型的时长。

SSM基于这一现代化的机器理念，为变形丝厂提供合适的工具，帮助厂商在竞争激烈的弹力丝特种纱市场中保持领先地位。

用于生产弹力机织物的包芯纱由弹性芯纱和包覆其上的另一组份的可纺纤维组成。芯丝只能由氨纶丝或由氨纶丝和变形丝一起制成。这就是所谓的“双芯纱”。如今，甚至有这样一种趋势，就是使用两种不同牵伸度和纱线支数的氨纶纱连同变形长丝一起制成芯丝。这些“三芯纱”进一步改善了弹力机织物的弹性和保型性。

两种生产选项
目前主要有两种方法可生产双芯或三芯包芯纱。第一种方法是将可纺纤维用作包覆物，使用立达环锭细纱机直接将氨纶纱和变形长丝纱纺入。第二种方法是使用环锭细纱机加工之前，使用XENO-AC TWIN空气包覆纱机（图1）对氨纶纱和变形长丝纱进行并纱、空气包覆和卷绕。在第二步中，棉纱纺入并覆盖在双芯或三芯纱上(芯纱位于“筒子纱卷装”（图2）)，例如使用立达环锭纺细纱机（图3）。这两种方法都需要在现有的环锭细纱机上安装专门的上部结构件。

对于不预先卷绕双芯纱或三芯纱的直接方法，这些上部结构件都非常高。为了重新装载环锭细纱机，必须关闭机器。与间接方法相比，该方法会造成将近13%的产量损失。此外，挡车工必须爬到环锭细纱机上，才能放入带变形长丝纱的卷装。这样做不仅危险，而且还需要临时额外增加人员，而这些人员本来可执行其他操作任务。

间接法优势
如上所述，使用“间接”方法生产双芯或三芯包芯纱需要额外增加一个工作步骤：使用XENO-AC TWIN空气包覆纱机制备包芯纱。该解决方案所需的环锭细纱机上的纱架要低得多，更方便用户操作。另一个优势是，可在装载每个纺纱单元的同时，继续操作其他所有单元。这意味着，在重新装载机器的同时，不会出现生产停工。这两种方法的转换成本大致相当，XENO-AC TWIN空气包覆纱机方法要稍微低一些。

空气包覆纱机确保稳定的质量
使用空气包覆纱机的“间接”方法的主要优势在于，使用环锭细纱机加工时，芯纱的居中效果更好，从而能使纺织短纤维得到很好的包覆。这样可确保芯纱受到最佳的保护。对于挡车工来说，很难检测到纱线中未居中的包芯纱。只有在织物经过织造和染色后，才能看到这种瑕疵。由于氨纶纱无法染色，因此芯纱居中不良会在织物中形成瑕疵斑点，从而破坏机织物的整体外观。该空气包覆纱机可确保稳定的质量，从而减少投诉。

传统环锭纺纱厂的理想入场机会
因此，使用空气包覆纱机对长丝纱进行并纱和空包的双芯或三芯包芯纱的质量要优于使用环锭细纱机直接生产的包芯纱。

XENO-AC TWIN空气包覆纱机方法为传统的环锭纺纱厂进入弹性包芯纱市场并取得成功提供上好的机会。这种方法还兼具用户便利性和安全性。而且不必对纱线质量做出妥协。

数十年来，Lurex等金属涂层纱已获得市场的广泛认可。当前有一种趋势是将这类纱线织入面料中，以获得光泽和花式效果。这些纱线采用特定的纱线组合，已在从家纺到时装的各个市场获得了广泛应用，包括鞋袜加工。

市场总是不断寻求独特的花式产品。秉承这一理念，SSM开发了一种利用空气包覆工艺创造新组合的创新方法。 SSM XENO-AC 不仅可以生产标准空气包覆纱，而且还能生产复杂的纱线，将Lurex纺入各种长丝中，例如涤纶和锦纶的拉伸变形丝(DTY)或全拉伸丝(FDY)。这些纱线将赋予针织或机织面料成品出色的光泽度和无可比拟的优点。在此生产流程中，Lurex丝与一根或多根长丝一起穿过气压喷嘴，然后进行并网。图1、2和3显示出特殊设计的成纱路径，以将金属涂层丝顺利、稳定地从原料卷装中直接喂入。

包覆Lurex的长丝可减少纱线致痒性，与直接使用纱线相比，使用这种纱线加工出的针织或织造面料手感更柔软。包覆长丝还能保护Lurex免受摩擦伤害，避免在后道工序中断裂。对于某些产品而言，空气包覆工艺可替代成本高昂、生产速率低下的传统Lurex包机工艺。Lurex空气包覆工艺的典型生产速度大约是机械包覆的20倍。此外，还可将氨纶纺入纱线，通过增加弹力来改善面料性能，获得既有光泽又有弹性的面料，这种面料常用于生产牛仔布、长袜和短袜。图4为机织面料，而图5是各种由长丝和Lurex制成的纱线卷装和面料样品。

客户可对已有的XENO-AC进行升级改造，以将标准工艺轻松改造为可加工Lurex的工艺。 SSM DP5-T 空气变形机（图6）同样可以升级改造，这在生产新型花式纱方面为厂家提供了很高的灵活性。

空气包覆工艺通过让变形丝和氨纶复合来生产弹性纱。这两种纱线被送入一个网络喷嘴，并在空气压力的作用下网络在一起。一根或多根拉伸变形丝(DTY)以最小的张力超喂进入空气喷嘴，并形成网络点。在空气包覆工艺中，会对氨纶丝施加特定的牵伸比，从而形成最终产品所需的弹性。空气包覆纱(ACY)和机械包覆纱(CCY)在结构上截然不同。空气包覆纱(ACY)是由网络点和开口段交替组成的结构（图1），而机械包覆纱(CCY)则是由长丝围绕氨纶丝缠绕而成（图2）。

机械包覆工艺是通过让包覆丝围着芯丝缠绕来生产包覆纱，从而保证最佳的均匀度和包覆质量。然而，这种工艺的加工速度非常缓慢，生产成本也很高，在生产用于服装面料的细支纱时尤甚。

因为空气包覆工艺是将DTY和氨纶网络在一起，而不是捻缠在一起，所以效率要远高于机械包覆工艺。空气包覆工艺消除了机械包覆工艺需要高速转动的限制因素，其生产速度通常要高出机械包覆工艺30到50倍（图3）。

由于机械包覆纱工艺在生产高纱支包覆纱时存在高转速和低效率的问题，每生产1千克纱线所需的能耗远高于空气包覆纱工艺，其结果是成本也更高（图4，计算基于中国工厂，20D绵纶DTY+20D氨纶丝，牵伸比3.0；空气包覆纱生产机器为SSM XENO-AC；机械包覆纱生产机器为SSM NOVA-CS；准备机器为SSM FM1）。

此外，机械包覆纱工艺要求将外包纱预先卷绕在有边筒管上。因此，该工艺是两步工艺，而空气包覆是一步工艺，无需额外的准备工序。SSM自动落纱系统提高了生产率，单锭独立设定和独立驱动超喂罗拉则可在生产小批量产品时实现极高的成本效益和灵活性。SSM空气包覆纱机可通过可控的预张力和卷绕张力，极其精确地控制纱线质量，是纱线制造商生产卓越性能纱线的理想选择。空气包覆工艺消除了传统包覆工艺对转速要求较高的限制因素。SSM空气包覆工艺是一项成熟技术，目前全球共有800多台空气包覆纱机以及超过22 000个锭位在客户工厂运行。

空气包覆纱因其优良的弹性恢复性能而被广泛用于弹力牛仔布，尤其是用作其纬纱（图5）。SSM还开发出将Lurex（金银丝）与空气包覆纱组合使用，或在同一纱线中使用两根氨纶丝，使超弹力牛仔布具有更高的弹性恢复。这些纱线可满足受应力约束下的高弹性恢复要求，应用于工业领域，如松紧。当用于袜类时，空气包覆纱还可兼顾用户对裹紧度和出色舒适性的要求。

空气包覆工艺不仅能以优异的效率创造经济效益，其所生产的空气包覆纱还具有品质上乘，性能出色的优点，因此，不管您要生产何种弹性纱，这都是一种极具吸引力的解决方案。此外，SSM还提供一系列经过现代化改造的机械包覆纱机：用于单包的NOVA-CS（图8）以及用于双包的NOVA-CD，此类机型可提供最高的包覆质量。

How densely and accurately a yarn is wound up when manufacturing dye packages is crucial to the color quality and the productivity of the dyeing process. SSM is setting new benchmarks in this area with the high-precision backpressure system preciforce. Dye packages with all kinds of yarns thus show a significantly better dyeing behavior. As such, in the production of cotton dye packages the effective package density can be increased and processed with a very low density tolerance of up to +/-1 g/l. The package build-up is extremely uniform, which gives the customer two advantages: more yarn per package and therefore increased production per dyeing process, as well as a consistent color quality. The crucial factor – the yarn density – is now an independent value that can be entered and regulated on the operating unit of the precision winding machine. The backpressure system preciforce is offered as an option on new winding machines XENO-YW, YD, PB, TU and AC and can easily be retrofitted on older models of the specified machine types.

到目前为止，在市场上仍然寻求不到全自动缝纫线成型绕线机。由于待加工的纱线种类繁多，纱管尺寸和用途繁杂：这导致全自动绕线机的标准化设计变得非常困难，客户只能选择成本极高的定制绕线机。但这并不意味着手动更换纱管的绕线机就是缝纫线领域的最佳解决方案。

正因如此，一家亚洲缝纫线生厂商决定使用284锭丝丝姆TK2-20-TT绕线机替换其“手动绕线机”。通过这一举动，公司的产能提高了100吨/月，达到了300吨/月的目标。不仅如此：公司还可能将达到产能所需的锭子数量减少50个，并将运行整个系统所需的人员数量减少60%。通过此项投资，仅人工成本一项，公司每年可以减少约3万瑞士法郎的支出——由于该公司位于新兴工业化国家，这一成果备受瞩目。

使用TK2-20-TT绕线机短短14个月之后，公司即可收回成本。由于其非常精确的计长功能及整个系统更低的能耗，客户可以额外获得每年15万瑞士法郎的收益。

Make the difference with SSM equipment!

Fancy intermingling option
This option creates commingled yarn with fancy color effects. It is available for the DP5-T, making this machine even more versatile, and for the new SSM air-covering machine, the XENO-AC. It consists of a high-speed valve attached to an intermingling jet body that stops and restarts the air flow at a very high pace.

The principle is not new, but its availability on SSM single- position machines makes it much more attractive for users. Intermingled fancy yarns are generally produced in small to medium lot sizes. There is no need to dedicate a complete machine side for producing a small quantity, rather, only the necessary positions are used, which gives users the added flexibility they want.

Several types of fancy effects can be combined, for instance slub and VARIO, to produce even more complex design effects. Slubs in conjunction with VARIO effects can also be combined with the elastane feeding device to produce elastic air-textured yarns. The whole range of SSM devices and options allows for new types of designs, directly at the yarn stage, making the downstream processes (weaving, knitting) simpler and giving yarn producers powerful means of diversifying their offer and enhancing their competitiveness.

Part 3: High-speed valve option
Another option available on the SSM air-texturing machine is the so-called high-speed valve, which can completely stop the air supply for a defined interval. This specially designed high-speed electro-valve is installed at the compressed air input, before the texturing jet. It allows creating a new kind of fancy effect in which the ATY shows successive non-textured lengths contrasting with the duller textured lengths, giving the appearance of shiny flashes. When texturizing threads of different colors together, the air interruption makes for a color-change effect, showing one or the other color in an alternating sequence.

Part 4: fancyflex™ AIR option
Since one aim of air texturing is to create imitation of natural fibers, the fancyflex™ AIR option was developed to imitate the natural irregularities shown by linen, silk and other yarns. This option works by producing neps and texture variations present in natural yarns but using inexpensive materials like polyester. Our fancyflex™ VARIO option combined with a torque jet to false twist the threads offers users a new type of fancy effect. This setup is a way to easily control the characteristics of the effect. The prominence of the neps and the distance between them can be controlled in order to achieve the desired effect in the fabric.

fancyflex™ VARIO
In order to be able to create longer effects and new kinds of effects, SSM developed a new device: the fancyflex™ VARIO. Featuring hardware and software specially developed in house, it provides controlled speed disturbances directly to the overfeeding godets, which are perfectly synchronized.

By controlling and changing the overfeed of a single component of a yarn, users can change the resulting dullness and also the final color of the ATY. Used on a single-color ATY, lengths with higher overfeed, which appear duller, will be produced along with lengths with lower overfeed, which appear shinier. Used on a single black or white thread, the shade of the yarn can be changed from darker to lighter – slowly changing, producing a shading effect or a 3D effect. When VARIO is used on several threads of different color, several colors and shades can be produced for a single air-textured yarn.

The fancy effects shown beside were created using a rather simple two-step cycle with two different overfeed levels, some with a random time setting.

To further support users in developing unique fancy effects, SSM developed the pattern mode. It provides a sequence of up to 50 different steps. The overfeed level and duration can be set for each step, allowing the creation of special repeating patterns.

fancyflex™ III slub device: slub effect at its best
SSM has refined and expanded the capability of the slub device. It can now handle two different yarns e.g. different colors resulting in an ATY showing successive slubs of two different colors or sizes. Proper dispatching of the slubs in the woven fabric is critical because this plays an integral role in the final visual effect. If the distance between slubs does not vary enough, an unwanted pattern on the woven or knitted fabric will result. To solve this problem, the cycle time of SSM slub device constantly and automatically changes by an adjustable random factor of up to 100%.

To give yarn manufacturers full control of slub distribution, SSM created the so-called “pattern mode.” It allows users to control the distance variation by editing a sequence of up to 40 steps, or so up to 40 consecutive slubs, that will repeat in a loop, allowing full control of the final fabric design. The pattern mode also gives greater flexibility when processing two colors of slubs because the user can choose which color to use for each of the 40 steps.

This powerful mode of control opens the door to specific designs that are not possible using the more conventional random mode, like slub degrade, which progressively increases or decreases the distance between slubs.

The maximum length of the slub is limited by the fancyflex™ III slub device, as it can only accumulate a certain quantity of yarn before it must be released.

除digitens™数码张力(SSM在线纱线张力调节)和DIGICONE® 2数码卷绕第二代(SSM分步精密卷绕)等要素外，背压力系统对络筒机的完美纱线卷装成型是非常重要的影响要素。背压力对需要达到的卷装密度有重大影响。背压力系统越精密，卷装密度就会得到越好的控制，从而实现最佳的卷装成型。全球络筒机器上的标准背压力系统，如气动式，电子-机械式或机械式系统，都遵循预先定义的曲线，在生产中经常出现的干扰因素是无法用这些系统加以纠正的。

因此，SSM开发出全球首个能连续调节接触压力并始终能避开干扰因素的背压力系统。

preciforce™ - 全球独一无二的背压力系统 
preciforce™ 是首个且仅有的能精准调节200-8,000厘牛范围接触压力的络筒机背压力系统，不管是卷绕松式筒子还是卷绕紧式筒子。由于这一创新的设计，在络筒机上通常使用气动或机械背压力系统而需要手动调节就再也没有必要了。由于其紧凑设计，功能强大的preciforce™精密背压力系统可以很容易地对现有所有类型的SSM XENO机器进行升级改造。

除了所有上述优点外，preciforce™精密背压力系统是完全免维护的，能耗更低，且系统的自校准进一步提升了preciforce™精密背压力系统的优势。

SSM preciforce™ 精密背压力系统是SSM XENO-YW, -YD, -PB 和 -AC机型的可选用件。

纱线以及卷装的多样性 - 特殊挑战
问题是：络筒机通常不能够直接生产出易于染色的卷装，这是由于存在粗支纱，低支纱，粗糙纱细，光洁纱线，圆柱形卷装以及圆锥形卷装 … 其原因数不胜数。优异的络筒机会将所有的参数都考虑进去，同时，能持续稳定地生产高品质卷装。一旦纱线卷装以不理想的方式卷绕，这种状况会导致下道工序出现问题，从而使得产品处于劣势。这种劣势会消耗大量的时间与金钱，这也正是竞争激烈的纺织行业的致胜要素。因此，SSM与著名的大学合作，开发出特定的纱线排列程序，无论何种纱线，均可使络筒机能够卷绕出完美的卷装。

以图像取代实验室测试
工程师们和数学家们选择特殊的方法，他们并不是测量纱线张力，线密度，材质以及纱线直径，并将这些参数集合至复杂的公式中，而是将SSM的专业知识转化为理论，这样做能够对筒子纱的结构以及密度分布精准预测。从数论中运用这些方法，最终专业技术人员能控制络筒过程中的“混乱动态系统”。

以这套算法为基础，开发出的DIGICONE®2算法能嵌入到络筒机控制系统软件中。通过络筒过程中的高速记录以及借助X线计算机层析成像技术，最终证实了SSM在这一项目上的成功（见对比图像）。结纶：相同结构的络筒机，之前并不总能卷绕出容易染色的筒子，而通过新的软件控制，则达到了这样的目的。

创新带来的竞争力优势
由于SSM与著名大学的合作，这一想法得以最佳地实施。Karaarslan说“DIGICONE®2算法使得我们能够在络筒机的市场上保持领先地位”。目前这种算法已经成功地运用在最新一代SSM机器上，顾客也已实质性地从中获益。

What’s a stable electricity supply?

An electricity supply is characterized by frequency, magnitude, waveform and symmetry of the three-phase-voltages. If the following disturbances exceed certain limits then the quality will be affected:

• main power shortages
• jitter light
• voltage variations
• frequency variations
• slow and rapid voltage changes (over-voltage, spikes)
• unbalance of three phase voltage
• harmonic distortion

An exact definition of a stable supply is given in the European Norm (ex. EN50160). SSM assures its machine function correctly if the norm is fulfilled.

How to test the electricity supply

To test if a supply is inside the norm you have to analyse your net over a long time. Variations over the seasons have to be taken into consideration (summer/winter influences etc.). Often a weekly analyse will give you sufficient information about your net. SSM can offer a short analyse of your net. Very often though consumers know their supply. Important are the amount of main power shortages and voltage variations.

How to connect the machine to the supply

A lot of errors can be avoided by connecting a machine correctly:

• Is the grounding system of the machine correct?
• Sufficient cross section of the supply pipe?
• Avoid connecting machines of different power classes to the same main distributor.

How to protect a machine

There are a number of devices that can help to protect a machine, e.g. UPS (unbreakable power interrupt), power stabiliser, flash protector, or net filter. It is important to choose the best and most economical solution. The beside checklist will help you to choose appropriate equipment.

The ratio between double strokes and number of revolutions is kept constant for a certain diameter range. The crossing angle varies only slightly within a range of ±1°. This results in an enhanced package density that does not change with increasing package diameter. So the building of pattern zones is avoided and the package maintains a stable structure without any ribbons. Due to this stable structure, the risk of complete layers “slipping off” during the unwinding process of dyed packages, as known with random winding, is completely eliminated.

The introduction of the XENO platform opened new possibilities for optimizing the winding algorithm. Thanks to this new machine platform, SSM could release DIGICONE® 2, enabling an increase of dye package density by another 10–24% with unchanged dyeing recipes.
