The name Autoconer is the synonym for automatic package winding, it is the original. With its product family the Autoconer X6 sets the benchmark for economic efficiency, package quality and most modern, intelligent automation solutions for ring spinning mills. For bobbin processing there are 3 machine types with different degree of automation.
| Type RM | Type D | Type V | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bobbin supply | Stand-alone machine with manual bobbin feeding into round magazines | Stand-alone machine with automatic bobbin feeding via the flat-circular conveyor and automatic material flow | Direct link to the ring spinning machine with direct bobbin feeding and automatic material flow |
The Autoconer X6 product family offers special types of machines for rewinding of packages. The 3 machine types meet all requirement profiles of the rewinding process in terms of textile technology requirements and flexible automation.
| Type E | Type K | Type RC | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Material feed | Manual package feed, single creeling | Manual feed of the reserve package in ergonomic position | Manual feed of the residual packages into large magazine |
| Feed change | Manual | Automatic | Automatic |
Multilink
The Autoconer X6 with RFID technology forms the basis for intelligent linking of ring-spinning and winding machines. With Multilink, customers can achieve this in a flexible and cost-effective manner, even if space is a concern.
Advantages Autoconer X6 Multilink
- Linking of up to 4 ring-spinning machines
- Interface feeding rates ≥ 60 cycles/min
- Winding machines up to 96 spdls.
- Integration of spindle identification system SPID
- Cost savings compared to single-link or manually operated mills
- Direct or underfloor link
- Successfully in the market
Take splicing to the next level
With the Smartsplicer family the Autoconer X6 sets the benchmark for easiest handling and impressive quality in every application. Depending on the application, customers can choose between the Smartsplicer, Smartsplicer Injection, Smartsplicer Thermo or Smartsplicer Elasto. With the latest innovation, the open prism splice technology, the customer can benefit from improvements in the splice process, splice quality and in handling (universal use).
Advantages of the Smartsplicer family:
- Great flexibility within the range of applications
- Spliced joints, indistinguishable from the parent yarn, with high strength and an excellent visual appearance
- Reproducibility of splicing results via centrally controlled setting of the splicing parameters
- Continuous further development and adaptation of the splicing technology to new yarn structures
Advantages of the new open prism technology:
- One prism OZ1 for universal use
- High average splice strength in a wider application range
- Dry splicing of elastic yarns or minimum water dosage
- Elasticity of the splice zone and in finished fabrics
- Embedded Lycra ends
PreciFX - Individual package design with the Autoconer X6
PreciFX is a drumless yarn displacement system both for processing bobbins and rewinding packages, proven in practice in more than 38,000 winding units. PreciFX sets entirely standards regarding package quality. Package format, package structure and package design can be adapted individually and flexibly to meet the downstream processing requirements precisely – without compromise. PreciFX winds more reliably, more flexibly and more quickly than other yarn displacement systems.
- Absolutely pattern-free package build
- Free choice between pattern-free, random wind, precision and step precision winding displacement technologies
- Individual package design and completely new package formats
- Process benefits and higher productivity for all downstream processes
- Reduced logistics costs
