MFS
In Brief
MFS determines some of the most decisive characteristics of a filament simultaneously, using only one sensor for each thread line.
Features
- Real time monitoring of:
- spin finish
- interlace
- denier
- evenness
- thin and thick places
- broken filament
- yarn breaks and yarn defects
- Developed in cooperation with PACE/USA
In Detail
- Measuring principle:
- Non contact optical technology for determination of interlace, denier, evenness, broken filaments, yarn breaks and yarn defects employing line scan camera technology with 32 bit DSP.
- Conductive for determination of spin finish
- Measuring ranges:
- Spin finish: 0.10 – 2% FOY (depends on conductivity of spin finish), resolution < 0.05 %
- Interlace: 0 to 300 nodes/meter, resolution 0.1 node/meter
- Denier: 10 to 8,000 denier
- Yarn break detection 10 to 10,000 denier
- Yarn defects: slubs, drips, thin spots with > 5 % variation broken filaments with min. 1 denier
- Diameter: 10 to 4,000 microns, resolution < 1 micron
- Yarn speeds: 60 to 10,000 m/min
- Sampling rates:
- Spin finish: > 20,000 measurements/sec (20 kHz)
- Interlace, Denier: 10,000 measurements/sec (10 kHz) *)
- Broken filaments: 10,000 measurements/sec (10 kHz) *)
- Yarn breaks: <10 ms response time (typical)
- Spin finish pins: ceramic, conductive coated, easy and fast exchangeable
- *) MFS for monofilaments provides up to 32,500 measurements/sec (32 kHz)
