Loepfe innovated yarn clearing a step forward thanks to YarnMaster PRISMA

Linkedin

Loepfe is driving forward developments and presented a world first at ITMA 2019. The new YarnMaster yarn clearer generation PRISMA astonished everyone with its innovative fusion of sensor technologies. The YarnMaster PRISMA world has a new integrated function: the MillMaster TOP management system for analysing and optimising yarn quality.

A WORLD OF INNOVATION

Loepfe has been pioneering yarn clearing technology for decades. Their commitment to developing a comprehensive total quality control tool for the winding process is very challenging: With their unconventional new approach with the YarnMaster PRISMA concept, a new era in smart quality control has been initiated and is now available for the spinning industry.

The YarnMaster PRISMA concept offers a universal and multi-dimensional approach for spinners by comprehensively addressing all yarn quality problems related to material and the spinning process. With the multi-sensor measurement design and functionalities of this innovative yarn clearing concept, the YarnMaster PRISMA supports spinners all around the world in mastering daily quality control. A fusion of sensor technologies offers unparalleled performance and possibilities in quality control during the winding process.

A WORLD OF SENSORS: FIRST TIME EVER

Four sensor technologies interact intelligently and ensure unprecedented fault visibility and data quality. YarnMaster PRISMA combines all the established sensor technologies for the first time in one device. This world first sets standards and increases productivity and efficiency.

RGB F-SENSOR – THE FULL SPECTRUM OF LIGHT

Almost 30 years ago, Loepfe took a pioneering role in the introduction of foreign matter detection based on the SIRO yarn clearing principle.

The degree of raw material contamination has not improved since then. Today, the ability to control the contamination in yarns is of greatest importance to the spinners.

With YarnMaster PRISMA, Loepfe once again assumes the leading role in this most important yarn clearing function by utilizing a sensor for foreign matter clearing based on the RGB-color measuring technology! This new optical foreign matter sensor is based on illumination technology, which covers the full spectrum of light!

With the use of this new illumination technology in yarn clearing, Loepfe sets a new benchmark today required in contamination control during the winding process, both in terms of reliability and sensitivity settings.

YarnMaster PRISMA yarn clearers are backed with RGB F-sensor technology; offering previously unachieved levels of safety and reliability in foreign matter detection. The new RGB F-sensor illuminates the yarn in the full spectrum of light, enabling the recognition of even the slightest difference in shade and glossiness in any type of yarn and color or both.

P-SENSOR – THE INVISIBLE BECOMES VISIBLE.

The reliable detection of white polypropylene is a most difficult task in yarn clearing and requires a creative solution!

Having mastered the triboelectric effect, Loepfe is in a unique position to measure and evaluate electric charge differences during yarn clearing which are caused during the winding process by different raw materials. YarnMaster PRISMA yarn clearers incorporated with the new generation of P-sensors complements the unique approach of Loepfe’s unconventional yarn clearing concept of total quality control in the winding process.

DM-SENSOR – DUAL MEASUREMENT FOR BASIC CLEARING

There is no longer any need to argue about which sensor technology is the most suitable. The spinners have both sensor technologies at their disposal!

On the YarnMaster PRISMA, the two dominant sensor technologies in yarn clearing are integrated into one single sensing head. This unconventional approach to use an optical and a mass sensor, functioning in perfect harmony, offers unprecedented possibilities and new levels of precision in yarn clearing.

With the intelligent fusion of the two sensor technologies, all technology-based advantages of both sensors are at your disposal and consolidated for the spinners’ advantage. YarnMaster PRISMA yarn clearers backed with DM sensor technology – ready for any challenge and ensuring economic production while not compromising on quality.

WORLD OF CONNECTIVITY: EASIER THAN EVER

Effective online quality management is one of the key success factors for winding and open-end spinning machines today. Loepfe makes it easier than ever before for the spinners to analyse yarn quality and adaptively evaluate the data. With the intelligent settings assistant, the spinners can continually optimise processes and make them more efficient. Loepfe’s data management cockpit has never been easier to operate.

PRISMA GUI – EASY AND INTUITIVE OPERATION.

The heart of the YarnMaster PRISMA yarn clearing concept is the simple and intuitive new PRISMA operating system. Easy operating and navigation controls ensure a high user acceptance and productivity.

The menu guidance by an intelligent wizard makes straightforward and intuitive operation possible in managing the comprehensive information provided by the innovative new YarnMaster PRISMA operating concept.

MILLMASTER TOP 2.0 – CONNECTS AND INFORMS.

Loepfe’s data collection and management system MillMaster TOP 2.0 is an integrated part of the functional scope of the YarnMaster PRISMA WORLD and complements every Loepfe yarn clearer installation.

100% online monitoring of quality data produced by the yarn clearers means less routine laboratory tests, which increases efficiency and reduces costs. Simple, configurable data analysis enables the right measures to be initiated with short reaction times.

Data comparisons over long periods allow further increases in the yarn quality and the efficiency of the spinning process.
