NovaStar, Skein Winder, 1.8m Circumference, 6 to 9 Skeins

NovaStar, Skein Winder, 1.8m Circumference, 6 to 9 Skeins

Description

  1. Overview
    1. Winding is the process of reeling yarn into skeins from bobbins or cones.
    2. The skein (or hank) is one of the forms in which yarn is put up for sale and is the most common form used for subsequent dyeing or hand painting of the yarn.
    3. The skein is made by creating a continuous coil of yarn that has been wound around a revolving frame of a known circumference, resulting in a skein of known length.
    4. The skein is tied at two or more points in its circumference so that when removed from the frame it can be handled without causing the individual strands to tangle.
  2. Rotating Hexagon With Pneumatic Mechanism
    1. The main part of the skein winder is the hexagonal rotating frame, which has a circumference of 1.8 m (70) and is made completely of stainless steel.
    2. The stainless steel construction allows the yarn hanks to slide easily across the bars and minimizes color transfer from dyed yarns.
    3. The opening and closing of the hexagon is actuated by a pneumatic cylinder and does not require any manual intervention.
    4. There are also spring-loaded connectors that allow the yarn to be quickly and easily secured to the frame.
  3. Bobbin Rack
    1. On the rear side of the skein winder there is a structure to hold the bobbin tubes or cones, which contain the yarn to be wound.
    2. This rack is movable in height and is equipped with adjustable spring holders that allow the insertion of tubes or cones of any size.
    3. Above the bobbin rack, circular guides with spring tensioners prevent the yarns from tangling during winding and provide the correct tension for the skein.
  4. Electronic Control
    1. The length of yarn wound is controlled through an electronic sensor that automatically slows down the speed of the winder near the end of the process.
    2. All of the electronic parameter adjustments are controlled by using the intuitive display on the front panel of the machine.
    3. If desired, the speed of rotation can also be changed using the potentiometers on the rear electric panel.
    4. The skein winder can measure the yarn in either meters or yards.
  5. Specifications
    1. Power consumption: 1.0 kW
    2. Single phase 230 V, 50/60 Hz (customizable)
    3. Size (length x width x height): 3060 mm x 1580 mm x 2060 mm (120 in x 62 in x 81)
