Introduction
There is a reason why the EliTeQCompactSet is regarded asthe most flexible compacting spinning method available to the market. This is becauseit is characterised by a straightforward yet highly effective working principle,enabling all types of fibres and fibre lengths to be processed without anyrestriction. In addition, the system can be retrofitted to almost all ringspinning machine types of well known manufacturers.
To date, over 2.3 million spindles across the globe havealready been equipped with EliTeQCompactSet producing single compact yarns, compacttwo-ply yarns (EliTwistQ), compact single core-yarns (EliCoreQ) and compacttwo-ply core yarns (EliCoreTwistQ) from short-and long-staple fibres.
The properties of a ring yarn can be greatly influenced bycompacting. The typical characteristics like compact, round cross-section,higher strength and hardly any long fibres sticking out are, however, alsolikely to have undesired effects in downstream processing or in the textilearticle. Consequently, as the maximum effects of compacting are now widelyrecognised, a trend can be observed in terms of producing compact yarns that arenot merely in accordance with the principle of being as compact as possible.Indeed, there is an increasing demand for the possibility of varying thecompacting effect. This depends on the various requirements of the downstreamprocess, the end product or just the more cost-effective spinning process.Applications have expanded beyond the mere spinning of long-staple cotton andhave therefore supported this development.
This expansion has involved processing carded cotton,man-made fibres and blends, as well as using compact yarns both in weaving andknitting applications.
The optional product EliVario has been designed to meet thistrend and we will proudly present this at ITMA 2007.This product will enable our customers to produce acompact yarn with great ease, according to any requirement, whilstsimultaneously optimising their energy consumption.
