Unitech Texmech, manufacturer of textile spinning rings and rings travellers, has launched new Steel Spinning Ring UniK1, developed through a special process of steel treatment using new technology.
The novelty is suitable to spin fine and superior fine count, compact yarn, dyed yarns as well as highly abrasive fibre yarn such as acrylic, polypropylene, kevlar, linen, bamboo, polyester, melange, modal etc. Also, coarse and high strength denim yarn, core yarn and new generation of fibres can be spun using the technology.
“We used our extensive knowledge of manufacturing spinning rings to develop and launch the UniK1. We observed a significant shift in the customer requirements where the focus is on higher speeds, performance, productivity and economy of yarn spinning.” – Makarand Bapat, Managing Director, Unitech Texmech Pvt. Ltd.
“This prompted us to develop the new spinning ring, which when run under actual spinning mill conditions, has shown the UNIK1 to be at par with any imported spinning ring and at the same time is also a truly ‘Made-in-India’ product,” added Bapat.
The special treatment provides UniK1 with excellent wear resistance properties. Also the rings are hard and tough as compared to the hard chrome coated ring. The ring also offers low coefficient of friction as against hard chrome coated ring, as the heat generated on the ring is lower, a necessity for compact yarn spinning.
Moreover, ring are imparted with specialised surface treatment, that provides it with high fatigue strength, resulting in consistent performance.
Unitech Texmech has experience of 42 years and has been exporting its technologies to several countries including Japan, Turkey, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, Bangladesh, South America, etc.
