Comparison measurements show that the central suction duct with a large crosssection combined with the air guide element significantly reduces the energy consum

The unique suction drum system and the new suction inserts ensure high and sustained consistent yarn quality. 4

Excellent Yarn Quality

Due to the electronic drafting system and the intermediate drive, the machine length is independent of the yarn count and raw material. The partial machine start allows economic adjustment to new market requirements.

Flexibility Cost-Optimised Spinning Flexible drafting arrangement facilitates long machines, quick lot change and integrated fancy yarn application High average machine speeds, lower energy consumption Efficient Doffer Fast doffing and high reliability Energy-Saving Drive Rieter 4-spindle tape drive Production and Quality Monitoring Individual spindle monitoring (ISM)* allows high spindle allocation Unique Compacting System Solid suction drum with new components ensures high quality level

Low Maintenance – High Availability Low-maintenance suction drum system reduces machine downtimes Process Advantages High strength and low hairiness improve the running behaviour Easy Machine Setting Fast and easy on the display Energy-Saving Compacting Up to 63 % less energy for compacting

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Highest Quality and Reliability Unique compacting system Proven suction drum system The solid suction drum remains the basis for longterm, consistent quality in compact spinning. The low-wear surface ensures a good and especially uniform yarn quality over long operating periods. The suction drum system is the only compacting system that offers high machine efficiency without extensive maintenance and cleaning. Nip roller Suction drum By means of the optimal and constant air flow with the suction insert “Bright”, the fibres are optimally integrated in...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Quality Monitoring Air guide element “Detect” secures and monitors the quality Quality through specific air flow The air guide element “Detect” ensures precise air flow. In combination with the suction drum and the suction insert, this achieves the optimal compacting result. The lateral inflow of the air captures all fibres and binds them reliably into the yarn strand. Yarns with highest strength and lowest hairiness are the result. Compacted fibres Air guide element Suction drum Suction insert Quality monitoring through air guide element “Detect”...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Energy-Saving Compacting Up to 63 % less energy for compacting The one-duct system reduces the energy consumption The Rieter compacting system has the lowest energy consumption of all compact systems. The central suction duct reduces the energy consumption needed to generate the vacuum. By means of the large cross-section the air resistance is reduced and consequently the energy input. The compacting zone is covered by the air guide element. The optimally guided air flow reduces the air volume required for compacting to a minimum. In combination with...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Energy-Saving Drive Rieter 4-spindle tape drive uses minimal energy The Rieter 4-spindle tape drive is energy saving and easy to handle. With the 90° enlacement on the spindle, a good drive of the spindle can be secured with a low contact pressure. This contact pressure ensures minimal force on the spindle bearings and thus secures the lowest possible energy consumption. the necessary flexibility, as a wide yarn count range can be operated with low power consumption. With major changes in the speed, the optimal speed range can be adjusted by means of...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Flexible Machine Concept Drafting arrangement for all requirements Quick reaction to market requirements The frequency-controlled drafting unit motors of the FLEXIdraft drafting system allow an easy setting of the draft on the display. Quick material change reduces downtimes to a minimum. FLEXIstart* supports the economic spinning start-up of the machine. Depending on the machine length, only a quarter or half of the drafting system is operated and consequently unnecessary material loss is prevented. * Option Intermediate drive ensures flexibility and...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Easy Machine Setting All functions are set centrally on the display Easy entering of the spinning data All machine functions are centrally entered. The various menus of the machine control simplify the entry process. The operator is guided step by step through the menu. As all important lot data such as yarn count, twist and speed curve are centrally set, the time required for a lot change is reduced. Rapid machine setting With MEMOset the data for 18 various lots are stored. Should a yarn count be repeated at a later point in time, it is especially...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Efficient Doffing High productivity through fast and reliable doffing Doffing without unterwinding With the SERVOgrip, no yarn residues occur that need to be removed from the wharve. As well as saving yarn, it helps to keep the machine clean. Ends down caused by flying yarn remnants are avoided. Rieter is the only manufacturer to offer an exactly controlled clamping crown. The controlled opening and closing of the clamping crown by the ring rail fixes the yarn exactly and ensures a low number of ends down after doffing. In addition, the risk that fibre...

Rieter . K 46 Compact Spinning Machine Reliable cops transport through SERVOdisc The SERVOdisc system works with peg trays that are clipped into a conveyor belt. This achieves a high level of precision in positioning. During doffing, the full cops and the empty tubes can thus be precisely taken over and removed. High dependability and short doffing times guarantee high machine efficiency over a long period. The SERVOdisc system is an open system and is thus practically self-cleaning in all circumstances. It is driven by two diagonally offset 70 watt motors and consumes only 10 % of...
