The machine "Selfstiro universal" FST is suitable to spin
any kind of material: wool, cashmere, angora, camel hair, technofibres,
silk, cotton, virgin or rigenerated, with any blends,with any length
and count from medium to thin to very thin. It has provided with two
different and indipendent drafting zone which they permit to get with
any material the maximum draft with the highest features of evenness,
strength, elongation and covering power. The first draft zone, with
a length of 470 mm, is provided by a device of false-twist with "spiral
needles" and a fixed position vibrator (patent) which gives a precise
false-twist from the big to the thin counts. This device gives to the
rovings some vibration that, making easier the draft, improve the yarn
quality. The second zone is provided with 3 rollers (feeding, intermediate
control and drafting). Adherent to the control roller turns a "small
draft apron", it is driven by the roller itself through a cylinder.
The draft apron is supported by a "cage", with a shape studied
to reduce the distance between the exit point from the draft apron and
the touching point on the draft roller of the rovings, in the way to
obtain the highest draft possible and fine quality yarns even with very
short and blended fibres.
The spindles are provided of spinning fingers with or without controlled
balloon (patent). The rings are sinterized for a better use of the nylon
travellers. The machine can be equipped with automatic doffer, automatic
creeling, underwinding cleaner, yarns detectors, production control
etc..
The headstock can be traditional with mechanics gears or with full electronic
drive of draft, twist and ring-rail.
