Package Creels
The UKIL eXpert creel options are designed to provide high performance tension control of the yarn during all phases of operation. One V-creel and three different H-creel options are available. Heavy duty construction is used throughout each type of creel. The number of packages and spacing between them is designed to meet specific needs of the application. If necessary, creels can be custom designed to fit in small spaces.
Tensioners (spun)
Ukil offers a wide variety of tension devices, from a simple post/disc, to a self adjusting dancer arm. There are also various models that combine different types of tensioners. For the most demanding applications UKIL offers an electromagnetic device with post control. A system which periodically blows air is included with each tensioner in order to keep lint from building up and causing tension variation. Each tensioner is designed to maintain consistent tension throughout the creel, side to side as well as front to back. All tensioners are built with precision craftsmanship in order to meet the most rigorous requirements.
Direct Warping Head (spun)
The UKIL eXpert Winder is designed to provide consistent section beam winding performance as well as stable tension control, while being easy and safe to operate. Heavy duty steel fabrication eliminates flexing common to many other designs. Large frame rails and cross members are matched to the expected loads and working width required for the application. The head and tailstock have motorized movement for doffing the beams, and the zig-zag comb assembly has motorized movement with an air blowing device. The press roll assembly is designed for perfect alignment to maximize performance and consistency throughout the beam build. The pressure of the press roll is regulated through the pneumatic system and is monitored on the operator control panel. Automatic kickback prevents scuffing of the beams during all machine stops.
Direct Warper Drive-Controls (spun)
The UKIL warper drive and controls utilize the latest technology to provide the highest performance, most constant beam quality possible. A color touchscreen allows the user to easily view operating conditions and initiate commands. Software includes a machine control program run on a PC under Microsoft Windows 7 with a real time extension. Control software is IEC 61131-3 compliant and interfaces with Microsoft Visual Basic. State of the art EtherCAT communication is fast and reliable. The UKIL warper drive/controls offer the best performance, most dependable service and easiest operating system available.
