Removing foreign particles from cotton has always been a challenge. However, with Trützschler’s T-SCAN technology, textile manufacturers in India are now experiencing significant improvements in contamination removal and yarn quality. This intelligent solution, successfully implemented in cotton ring spinning lines, is now proving its efficiency in rotor applications, ensuring higher quality output and reduced rejections.
Revolutionizing Cotton Cleaning
Cotton bales often contain unwanted materials like leaves, stems, plastic, jute particles, metal, and paper. These contaminants can slip past the initial cleaning stages in the blowroom, causing severe issues such as yarn breaks, dye inconsistencies, and fabric defects. In ring spinning, yarn clearers effectively remove such impurities. However, in rotor spinning, detecting and eliminating polypropylene contamination remains a major challenge.
The solution? T-SCAN! This state-of-the-art system, with its TS-T3 and TS-T5 models, ensures thorough detection and removal of contaminants. The latest versions of this technology maximize yarn quality while minimizing fiber loss. This is especially beneficial for rotor spinning and recycling segments, where contamination control is crucial.
