technology, spinning mills can free-
ly select how many spinning posi-
tions are used for the individual lots,
and naturally lot changes are fow-
ing, during full production. Thus
spinning mills are able to cut stor-
age costs and earn money even with
smaller lots.
With the Autocoro 8, spinning
mills save all the way down the line.
In the case of raw materials that
overtax the automated systems on
rotor spinning machines with belt
drives and force the effciency rating
downwards, the Autocoro 8 masters
these easily with its individually au-
tomated spinning positions.
The packages of the Autocoro 8
contain up to 10 per cent more yarn
with the proven package diameter.
That reduces logistics costs, ranging
from tube costs via the cost of pack-
aging and transport through to the
vehicle feet and staff costs. Spin-
ning mill customers likewise beneft
from the improved packages due to
their longer running times and im-
proved unwinding prop-
erties.
Furthermore, spinning
mills save energy. On
rotor spinning machines
with belt drives, idle
time, whether on ma-
chine start-up, lot chang-
ing or in the manufacture
of sample packages, is a
necessary evil that con-
sumes energy without
producing. This energy
killer is a thing of the past
with the Autocoro 8, be-
cause only the spinning
positions that are produc-
ing are using power.
Stopping the machine,
changing belts, testing
drives and bearings –
spinning mills now do no
longer need to do any of
these. With the Autocoro
8 they achieve cost-sav-
ing lean maintenance in
their rotor spinning mill
for the frst time. While
single spinning positions
are maintained, the other
spinning positions con-
tinue producing. And the
general cleaning intervals
are also prolonged by at
least 50 per cent.
