Digital Yarn Twist Counter for Single & Plied Yarn

DESCRIPTION / TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

This is a Digital Reeling Twist Tester, a precision instrument designed to determine the number of twists in both single and plied yarns. This instrument fully complies with the test method requirements of international textile industry standards such as ISO 2061 and ASTM D1422/1423. It is an essential device for quality control in the spinning and textile industries. The following are its detailed technical specifications and capabilities.

This instrument offers superior testing flexibility with support for the two primary standard methods: the Direct Counting Method and the Untwist-Retwist Method. Driven by an electric motor, the machine features a variable rotational speed adjustable in the range of 300 to 1200 revolutions per minute, allowing for efficient testing. Tests can be conducted on various selectable standard sample lengths, including 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500 mm, to accommodate different yarn types and test method requirements.

Designed for accuracy and ease of use, all results and parameters are shown on a clear digital display. The device can count twists over a very wide range, from 1 to 9999.9 twists. The scale accuracy for setting the sample length is 1mm, ensuring precise sample preparation. The instrument is capable of handling a wide variety of yarn sizes, from fine to coarse, within a range of 1 to 499.9 tex, making it highly versatile for numerous applications in a textile laboratory.

As a fundamental tool for textile quality control, this twist tester is crucial for spinning mills, weaving/knitting factories, and research laboratories. By accurately determining the twists per inch (TPI) or twists per meter (TPM), manufacturers can ensure the consistency, strength, appearance, and feel of their yarn and the final fabric. Its simple operation and reliable results make it a vital investment for maintaining product quality standards.
