Gualchieri e Gualchieri, EPT-EP, 2026, Chenille Yarn Machine, 24 Spindles, 175mm Gauge (New)

Description

  1. Overview
    1. Application: For the production of chenille yarn from different kinds of yarns such as acrylic, polyester, cotton, viscose, wool, etc.
  2. Specifications
    1. Number of spindles: 2 (not extendable)
    2. Gauge (distance between spindles, center to center): 150 mm (5.9)
    3. Ring diameter: 115 mm (4.52), synthered, height 17.4 mm
    4. Bobbin height: 450 mm (17.7)
    5. Spindle type: HZ55
    6. Production: 6 to 10 meters per minute (this is not a limit of the machine itself, it is a limit of the yarn. Mechanically the machine could run up to 18 meters per minute).
    7. Electronic system controlled by PLC to achieve the highest production and precision of movements. Software system to insert all the programmable parameters values (such as twists, spindles speed, effect yarn speed, core yarn speed). Programmable parameters also for yarn reserve and best control of tension during package formation, with dividing of package in 6 different zones to which a different speed can be assigned and with machine speed variation at cycles of ring rail up and down movement with consequent more regularity of twists. Better formation and consistence of final yarn package because of more uniform distribution of the yarn spirals. This system reduces the breakages of yarn and the defects on the chenille yarn due to different and higher tensions. The software allows also the production of fancy (slub) chenille yarn. The working programmes can be stored on the PC or on another support.
    8. Transmission by means of tangential drive belts.
    9. Independent cutting group.
    10. Arms and rollers group designed by ourselves which facilitates the passage of the yarns and guarantees the necessary pressure.
    11. Electrical cabinet with panel PC (touch screen) for the transmission of the working data to the machine and electrical components including the drives. Step motors on board the machine.
    12. Main power supply to the machine: 400 V +/- 10%, triphase, 50 Hz.
    13. Power installed: +/- 3 kW
    14. Gauge: 175 mm
    15. Ring diameter: 127 mm
