3. Overview  Piloted Patrolling  Reduction in pneumafil waste  Efficiency increase  Detection of spinning positions with problems  Preventing lapping problems  “Round-a-clock” monitoring

4. FANI Modular Concept Archimede JSpin Roving Stop Motion Yarn Breaks & RPM Monitoring TBox

5. Yarn Breaks & RPM Monitoring: Sensorfil Ext  Electromagnetic Sensor  1 Sensor per Spindle  Real-Time monitoring  Yarn break Monitoring  RPM Monitoring  Suitable to all type of existing ring-rails.  For cotton / short staple ring spinning frames  Easy individual detector switch OFF and ON  No parts in motion

6. Sensorfil Ext: Yarn Break Monitoring Two levels of alarm lights to simplify and pilot operators patrolling: 1. Three-colors tower lamps on the headstock of the ring spinning frame. 2. Sectional red spy light on the ring-rail.

7. Sensorfil Ext: Yarn Break Monitoring Yarn Break Alarm Lights: 1. Reduction of patrolling time. 2. Increase of operator efficiency. 3. Decrease of spindles down time.

8. Sensorfil: Yarn Break Monitoring Three-Colors Tower Lamp  1 or 2 Lamps per machine side  Each color is a different level of yarn breaks on that particular machine side.  Examples: All colors OFF = NO breaks 1 st color ON = 1 breaks 2 nd color ON = 5 breaks 3 rd color ON = 10 breaks 3 rd color BLINKING = several breaks

9. Sensorfil Ext: Yarn Break Monitoring Sectional Red Spy Light 1 spy light every section of 24 (standard) or 12 or 8 spindles.

10. Sensorfil Ext: Piloted Patrolling Patrolling without Sensorfil Ext Without yarn breaks signalisation the patrolling is systematic and in continuous on all side in order to avoid high pneumafil waste and lapping problem

11. Sensorfil Ext: Piloted Patrolling Patrolling procedure becomes piloted. Through Tower-Lamp the operator will see immediately if there are yarn breaks in one side. It is no more necessary attending side without yarn breaks. Tower-lamps will provide information about breaks level on the side. Red spy light along the side will help for the identification of the spindles with breaks. Patrolling with Sensorfil Ext

12. Roving Stop Motion BP-06 1. Reduction of pneumafil waste. 2. Preventing Lapping Problems. 3. Breaks attending less urgent.

13. Roving Stop Motion BP-06 Roving Stop Motion BP-06, in case of yarn breaks, stops roving between top and bottom back rollers reducing pneumafil waste Reduction of pneumafil waste

14. Roving Stop Motion BP-06 Preventing Lapping problems By stopping the roving, laps on front delivery rollers will be avoided.

15. Spinning Machines Monitoring Two information levels: 1. Directly on the ring spinning frames by means of unit UCF/1B-CN. 2. Full data monitoring with Archimede JSpin.

28. Spinning Machines Monitoring Archimede JSpin Monitoring System Circled in red: spindle n° 36 has both yarn breaks and RPM out of tolerance. Circled in Blue: on these spindles there aren’t yarn breaks but there are slippage problems. Operators in charge of patrolling can’t detect this problem. Not detecting this problems means twist quality problem on yarn.

31. Monitoring of Preparation Machine TBox Device: Preparation-to-spinning machines (cards, draw frames, combers, roving frames) can be linked to Archimede JSpin by means of TBox control unit. If Roving Frame are equipped with FANI RFS-1 sensors, roving breakages data are collected.

32. Monitoring of Preparation Machine TBox Device:  Functioning.  n° 5 automatic stop codes by means of no-voltage contacts (stops, doffing, lack of material, etc..).  n° 99 stop codes selectable through keyboard.  Production by means of a proximity sensors.
