ADVANCED KNITTING TECHNOLOGY EFS 700 Electronic Yarn Feeder: Controlled feeding of elastic yarns on flat knitting machines The EFS 700 electronic yarn feeder is designed for the feeding of elastic yarns on flat knitting machines, at a constant tension into the knitting machines. A sensor measures the outgoing yarn tension and regulates the feed speed accordingly. The required yarn tension level is preset by using the keypad. The display shows the values for the yarn tension in cN, and the current yarn speed in metres per minute. The controlled feeding of the elastic yarn enables a proper plating on flat knitting machines. The constancy of length and width is significantly improved. ■ Constant yarn tension to ensure an even knit structure with better length and width constancy ■ No plating faults at carriage return resulting in less faulty fabric ■ Higher machine speeds and fewer stoppages for faults ■ Easy to use. Automatic zero-setting of yarn tension sensor. These two features save time and cut costs ■ Automatic Wind-On button - no manual wind-on required. ■ High-dynamics motor. Yarn feed rate and constant yarn tension adjusted in milliseconds

BARREL TENSIONER The barrel tensioner ensures the step less adjustment of the yarn tension of the elastic yarn at the yarn inlet of the EFS 700. OPERATOR KEYPAD Menu-guided operation and simple controls make this practical operator keypad very user-friendly. YARN WHEEL The yarn wheel is light and very strong. This is the ideal combination for dealing with the dynamic stresses transmitted by the motor. Precision yarn take-up ensures optimum winding and prevents overwinding. The yarn sensor has a yarn lifter for automatic zero setting. The rapid response sensor ensures optimum adjustment and maintenance...
