PK 1555 mechanical weighting arm for increased efficiency
The spring-loaded weighting arm PK 1555 is your optimum conversion option when switching from our pneumatic weighting arm series PK 5000.
The PK 1555 offers more flexibility for the spinning process and an improved process reliability, thus resulting in rovings of optimum quality. They are suitable for spinning cotton, man-made fibres or blends thereof.
Features
- Smaller load tolerances
- Visible load indicators
- Ergonomic handle
- Top apron cradle concept with individual tensioning system
- Easy disassembly of top rollers
- Optimum solution for converting a pneumatical drafting system

PK 5000 pneumatic weighting arms
The PK 5000 series weighting arms are an innovative and future-oriented drafting system for short staple roving frames. It can be used for spinning of cotton, man-made fibres and combinations of these up to a fibre length of approx. 60 mm. The load on the top rollers is adjusted infinitely and centrally using a compressed air supply system. This ensures a constant load at all spinning positions of the roving frame. The PK 5000 weighting arm offers an extremely practical method of centralised partial load, which is easy to set and persuasively simple to operate.
Available gauges: 90 / 100 / 110 mm
Features
- Simple and easy to operate
- Rapid erection and setting
- Simple height adjustment
- Centralised and infinite load setting
- Practical and safe partial load
- Reduction in the operating forces
