Karl Mayer’s DS 21/30 EC – is a new computer-controlled direct warping machine developed for the warp knitting sector. The machine represents highly efficient technology for use in warp preparation for warp knitting.
A well-thought-out construction and intelligent design features enable high speeds of up to 1,200 m/min to be achieved when producing sectional warp beams having identical circumferences and lengths, whilst guaranteeing accurate and reliable operation at the same time.
Karl Mayer’s high-speed direct warping machines operate using optimally coordinated creel systems, feed units and synchronized braking systems. All the operating conditions start/stop and running phases are 100% computer-controlled, and any variations in the circumference of the sectional warp beams are extremely small. The maximum variation is no more than a millimetre, even when extremely delicate yarns are being processed.
If the machine has to be stopped, highly innovative synchronized braking systems stop the machine in just 0.6 seconds, and the running of the yarn sheet is fully controlled, even when the machine has been operating at high speed. These performance features can all be utilized very easily via the KAMCOS machine control system.
The Operator Interface with touch screen facility gives a clear view of what is happening, and enables all the machine functions to be accessed easily. An Ethernet interface permits the data acquisition and Teleservice modules to be connected up.
These performance features have ensured that all the models in Karl Mayer’s range of direct warping machines have become real bestsellers on the market. The new machine will add further dimension to the product range of the knitting sector.
