Product catalog summary
Overview
The Eltex EYE is a flexible yarn break detection system designed to enhance product quality and machine efficiency in textile machines. It utilizes robust piezoelectric sensors that are unaffected by environmental factors such as dust, dirt, humidity, or ambient light.

Yarn Break Sensors
The sensors are available in configurations with 1, 8, 10, or 12 eyelets, providing versatility for different applications.

Master Control Unit
This unit processes data from the sensors and communicates with the operator terminal. It provides stop and lamp indication signals in case of yarn faults and integrates all system components using a smart bus system.

Operator Terminal
The touch screen interface is user-friendly, displaying yarn operation status and fault positions. It allows for quick style changes and logs events in real-time for diagnostics.
  • Fast stop for yarn break
  • Fast learning of positions
  • Real-time event logging
  • I/O for up to six machines
  • Simple installation and self-diagnostics
  • Networkable with modern bus systems

Further Advantages
  • Stop positions displayed on terminal and sensor
  • User-defined yarn position ID display
  • Configurable stop functions
  • Automatic sensor parameter adjustments
  • Easy system configuration changes
  • Robust metal housing sensors
  • Supports CAN Bus, Ethernet, or Modbus
  • Quick software updates

Applications
The system is suitable for various textile applications, including warping creels, winding machines, multiaxial warp knitting machines, heat set creels/winders, air entanglement machines, yarn preparation machines, cable machines, and general multithread applications.

Configurations
Different configurations allow up to 96 single sensors to connect to one control unit, with options for multi-eyelet and single sensor combinations. The system can control up to six machines individually, with additional slave units expanding sensor capacity.

EYE - Yarn break detection system for warping and winding.-1

Eltex Yarn Expert Yarn Break Detection System INFO LEAFLET The Eltex EYE is a flexible system designed for yarn break detection on textile machines. It is designed to improve product quality and machine efficiency. Operator Terminal The touch screen operator terminal has a very user-friendly interface. Information about amount of yarns in operation and positions of yarn faults is clearly displayed. Style changes are quickly made by the press off the learn button. • Fast stop for yarn break • Fast learning of positions in use • Events are logged in real time for statistics and diagnostics • I/O for one to six independent machines • Simple installation, service friendly, self diagnostic • Modern, smart and proven bus system • Networkable Master control unit The master control unit is communicating with the sensors and the operator terminal. It is processing all the data and makes stop and lamp indication signals in case of a yarn fault. The sensors use the well proven piezoelectric principle. They are robust and can work with a wide range of yarns and are not influenced by dust, dirt, humidity or ambient light. All components of the system are wired together with our smart and proven bus systems. The sensors are available with 1, 8, 10 or 12 eyelets. Further advantages • The stop position is shown both on the terminal and on the sensor • Automatic addressing of all the system parts • Ability to show user defined yarn position ID at yarn fault • Easy to change system configuration • The stop function can be set for immediate stop or for a stop after a certain number of yarns are missing. • Sensor parameters can be set for different groups of yarn and can also automatically change depending on machine speed Yarn break sensors • Simple connections with modular connectors • Warping creels • Winding machines • Multiaxial warp knitting machines • Heat set creels/winders • Robust sensors in metal housings • CAN Bus, Ethernet or Modbus (available for OEM interface) • Yarn preparation machines • Software updates can be quickly and easily installed
