Electronic Wrap Reel for Thread Sample Preparation

DESCRIPTION / TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

This is an Electronic Wrap Reel, an automated sample preparation device designed to produce skeins of yarn of a precisely predetermined length. This instrument is a crucial and fundamental first step for various yarn tests, especially for yarn count and skein strength determination, in accordance with international standards like ISO 2060 and ASTM D1907. The following are its detailed technical specifications.

Precise and automated reeling performance is at the core of this machine. Equipped with a reel that has a standard circumference of 1000mm (1 meter), this device ensures each revolution produces an accurate length of yarn. The reeling process is fully automated thanks to a programmable revolution counter (adjustable from 1 to 9999 revolutions), which automatically stops the machine once the desired number of wraps is reached. The reeling speed is also flexibly adjustable within the range of 30 to 250 RPM to suit different yarn types.

To ensure the quality and accuracy of the resulting skein, this instrument is equipped with essential features. An adjustable pre-tension system (0-100 cN) ensures that the yarn is wound with the correct and consistent tension, preventing stretching that can lead to inaccurate test results. Furthermore, a travelling reciprocating mechanism that traverses a 35mm distance ensures the yarn is laid evenly across the reel, producing a neat and easy-to-handle skein.

As a complete system, this machine includes a yarn package stand (creel), ready for immediate use. By providing a fast, easy, and highly accurate method for sample preparation, this electronic wrap reel is an indispensable instrument for any quality control laboratory in the textile industry. It serves as the foundation for all subsequent yarn testing, ensuring that the strength and count data you obtain is valid and reliable.
