ITMA Milan 2015 was definitely a great success for Marzoli, with more than 3,000 booth visitors from over 80 countries, several contracts finalized with major clients and, above all, a great deal of interest shown in the range of Marzoli machines and innovations.
“Marzoli machines set the lead in spinning technology, and all its clients have recognized this point. The Marzoli C701 card is the unique carding machine with an active surface of 3.74 sqm and with an innovative geometry that allows high production levels with low peripheral speed of the main cylinder for lower stress on the fibers and less wear of the carding flats.
The new Marzoli CM7 LP Comber which, thanks to a completely revised kinematics and lighter materials (e.g., aluminum and titanium), can reach a mechanical speed of 600 nips per minute and production levels of up to 85 kg/h. The circular and top combs of advanced technology guarantee leading quality performance with a substantial reduction of IPI values. The LP comber can also be equipped with a cutting-edge automatic lap piecing technology that allows substitution of empty tubes with new laps, to piece them and restart the machine in less than 2½ minutes without any human intervention.
The Marzoli FT6 roving frame has a multi-motor drive for the flyers to reduce energy consumption. With new design of head and rear stocks for reduction of the required space, its individual sensors, one for each spinning position, always guarantee the immediate halt of the machine in case of roving breakage.
The new Marzoli Integrated Transport System is available in two versions: the MTR (Marzoli random transport) and the MTT (Marzoli block creeling solution), with trolley trains that can also enter the doffer rail of the new FT60 and FT70 roving frames and the creel of spinning frames.
At ITMA 2015 great public interest was shown for the innovative Integrated Bobbin Cleaner placed on the exchanger, the IBC (Marzoli patented). This innovation cleans the dirty tubes before changing them with full bobbins and discloses the following benefits. There is no need of a separate cleaner. There are fewer chain stops and less chain downtime for a regular supply of full bobbins to the spinning frames and thus less energy consumption.
Marzoli Remote Maintenance (MRM) is an innovative platform that draws on the data gathered by processors and additional sensors installed in critical parts of the machines to continuously monitor the state of health of the machinery. The data regarding temperatures, power consumption and vibrations are sent to an IoT platform, provided by Microsoft, where they are analyzed through special algorithms developed by Marzoli. These algorithms verify that the monitored parameters are inside the machine nominal operating ranges according to the machine working parameters and room condition: if they are not, the client is immediately alerted.
This innovation guarantees several advantages like prevention of machine failures, longer running life of the machine components, more effective maintenance of the mill, etc.
