Product catalog summary
Overview: The Eltex EyETM system is designed to enhance the quality of warp beams or yarn packages by providing real-time monitoring of yarn tension across multiple applications. This system aims to reduce issues during warping, winding, weaving, or tufting by ensuring yarn tension remains within specified limits.
Specifications:
  • The system allows setting minimum and maximum allowable tension values, with alerts or machine stoppage if these are exceeded.
  • Real-time updates of yarn tension values are displayed on a large screen, with visual indicators for tensions outside warning levels.
  • Tension ranges available are 0 to 300 cN or 0 to 600 cN, with an accuracy of ± 5 cN.
  • Supports up to 96 tension sensors, monitoring a maximum of 1152 yarns.
  • Guide eyelets are 6 mm in diameter, with quick thread or closed type options.
  • Distance between yarn positions varies based on sensor type, with multi-position sensors having 16 mm spacing.
Features:
  • Adjustable reaction speed to tension changes.
  • Centralized setting of warning and stop limits via the Operator Terminal.
  • Individual LED indicators on sensors for tension alerts.
  • Mechanical protection against over-tension and zero tension adjustment capabilities.
  • Robust metal housing for sensors and easy mounting.
  • Supports Ethernet, CAN Bus, or Modbus for OEM interfaces.
System Components:
  • Operator Terminal
  • Yarn Tension Sensors
  • Display Screen
  • Master Control Unit
Advantages:
  • Real-time event logging for statistics and diagnostics.
  • Networkable to a central database with automatic system part addressing.
  • Simple system configuration changes and fast learning of positions in use.

EyETM, yarn tension monitor.-1

Eltex Yarn Expert - EyETM Tension monitoring for multiple yarn applications INFO LEAFLET Eltex EyETM greatly helps increase the quality of warp beams or yarn packages by monitoring all yarn tension in real time. The result is fewer problems, not only when warping and winding, but also in the next step when weaving or tufting. The EyETM system monitors the yarn tension on all positions in real-time. A minimum and maximum allowable tension value can be set. If any yarn’s tension is outside these values the operator can be warned or the machine can be stopped. The system can also be set to stop if a yarn’s tension value has exceeded the warning level for a pre-set amount of time. Selection view Right side High warning level Low warning level The yarn tension values from all yarns are continuously updated and displayed on a large screen. Tension values outside the warning level will be indicated both on the sensor’s LEDs and on the screen. It is possible to expand a selection of the display to have a detailed view including the position ID and the cN value for the yarns in this sect

EyETM Features • One system can have up to 96 tension sensors. The tension sensors are available with 1, 8, 10 or 12 positions. A maximum of 1152 yarns can be monitored. Guide eyelets 6 mm diameter, of quick thread or closed type. Distance between yarn positions with multi position sensors is 16 mm. When mounted side-by-side the distance between two nearby positions is 25 mm. Minimum distance between yarn positions with single sensors is 20 mm. The sensors detect changes in yarn tension quickly. How quickly the system should react to the change is adjustable. Both warning and stop limits are...
