ent yarn quality. USTER CLAS-
SIMAT 5 for the first time detects
and quantifies outliers for periodic
faults, evenness, imperfections and
hairiness, in addition to critical
thick and thin places.
The USTER CLASSIMAT 5 is
the tool of choice for those who
want to understand the nature
and sources of these defects and
to develop preventive strategies.
Especially important are its power-
ful foreign matter tools for assess-
ing colored
foreign fibers,
vegetable
matter and, for
the first time,
polypropylene
content.
The full
range of qual-
ity measure-
ments handled by
USTER CLASSIMAT 5 is
complemented by powerful
analytical tools. It integrates
a clearing limit analysis feature,
which can estimate and display the
applied clearing limit for the yarn,
as well as providing an index to
optimize the clearing limit in each
area, including foreign matter.
Yarns from different lots or sup-
pliers can now be compared, to
identify the best and the next best
quality levels, with detailed figures
available at a click, and presented
as intuitive color codings.
State-of-the-art technology
These customer benefits are pos-
sible, thanks to the most technical-
ly-advanced sensors and superior
hardware for detection and eventual
classification of all types of de-
fects. For the first time, USTER
CLASSIMAT 5 measurements
are independent of the machine or
test speed variations. The unique
mounting module includes a special
cleaning facility to prevent dirt and
fluff in the measuring zone. An ar-
ray of guides and a tension control
also ensure highest accuracy in
foreign matter classification.
