Yarn Tension Monitoring and Control in Texturing
topic
False twist texturing machine tension monitoring uses piezoelectric or strain gauge tension sensors at multiple positions including input tension T1, twist zone tension T2, and output tension T3, with T1 to T2 and T2 to T3 tension ratios characterising the twist insertion efficiency and heater friction contribution that together determine yarn processing stability and the uniformity of crimp development across all spindle positions on a multi-spindle machine.
Role
Provides the real-time tension data required for monitoring texturing process stability and detecting developing problems including yarn breaks, disc wear, heater deposit accumulation, and feed roll speed deviation that manifest as tension ratio changes before causing yarn breaks or quality deviations, enabling proactive maintenance intervention that maintains production efficiency and yarn quality consistency across all positions of high-spindle-count texturing machines.
