Synthetic Yarns Don’t Need Foreign Matter Detection! Or Do They?

Spinning - Yarn
Thanks to the new OffColor detection feature of Loepfe´s YarnMaster ZENIT+ the labor-intensive and therefore expensive visual inspection of the bobbins is no longer necessary. The raw material for spinning synthetic fibers originates from well-controlled processes in chemical plants. This is why contamination with foreign matter occur very rarely. However, synthetic yarns like polyester can have different fiber qualities with different glossiness. Mixedup yarns can lead to defects in the following processes along the production chain. Today, the visual inspection of these costly errors is still very time- and labor-intensive. PT. Superbtex, Indonesia, strives for a simpler and more efficient solution to overcome this issue and has addressed Loepfe for a suitable solution. The co-operati
