Techtextil 2024: Lab spinner LSE 2000-2 and bending stiffness measuring device ACPM 200P
In staple fibre processing, ring spinning is still the dominant spinning process due to its extraordinary flexibility and the high yarn qualities that can be achieved, especially as it can cover a wide range of finenesses. By adapting additional modules, a wide variety of speciality yarns can now be produced in just one machine process, such as core, siro or fancy yarns.
With the LSE 2000-2, the Cetex Institute offers a modern, multifunctional lab spinner in which a variety of additional equipment is integrated. The machine, which operates according to the ring spinning principle, is designed for processing staple fibres made of cotton, wool, man-made fibres and their blends. The basic machine can be equipped with 3 different, interchangeable drafting systems (classic 3-roller drafting systems for long or short staple processing and 4-roller short staple drafting system for sliver spinning). With the integrated additional modules, all common standard or speciality yarns can be produced on the machine: core yarns, compact yarns, siro yarns, S and Z yarns as well as programmable fancy yarns. In addition, the adjustable drafting system inclination and geometry as well as infinitely variable adjustment of the drafts ensure maximum flexibility. 6 individual synchronous motors guarantee absolutely identical spindle speeds at each of the working positions (up to 30,000 rpm). The machine is equipped with a large, clear 22" touch panel for convenient operation.
The Cetex Institute offers the revised ACPM 200P bending stiffness measuring device for automated testing of the bending stiffness of flexible samples made of paper, textile surfaces and films.
ACPM 200P works according to a measuring method with parallel measured value acquisition, which is based on the cantilever method according to DIN 53362. In contrast to the DIN 53362 method, the supply of the sample and the measurement itself are automated. This eliminates human influence on the measurement process and result. The device has two measuring levels and makes it possible to measure the bending stiffness of flexible samples made of paper, textile surfaces and films with thicknesses from 0.01 mm to 10 mm. In addition to an appealing modern design and additional safety and comfort adjustments, the device also enables a revision of the supplied software user interface. In addition, process stability has been further improved and various device parameters optimised.
Cetex will be exhibiting at a joint stand with the companies Technitex Sachsen GmbH, Fibtex GmbH and PAMA paper machinery GmbH, the BG ETEM, as well as the Professorships of Textile Technologies and Conveying Engineering and Materials Handling at Chemnitz University of Technology.
We look forward to seeing you at stand C50/C50B in hall 12.1.
