ABOUT DREF 2000
An example of DREF 2000 usage in the filter sector is the use of friction spun yarns for drinking and industrial water, pure water and activated carbon filters. A specialist manufacturer employs DREF products for over 20 types of cartridge that require compatibility with FDA foodstuffs legislation. The yarns employed generally consist of PP fibres in the 3.3 dtex, 40 mm range, which are highly resistant to micro-organisms and have a wide scope of chemical applications
Friction spun yarns offer 20-40% more air volume in the yarn and less flow resistance than flyer yarns, as well as up to twice the service life. The fibre structures are relatively random and subject to high degree of twist. The yarns offer great regularity and increased strength, while their round yarn cross-section ensures limited deformation under transverse load. In addition, production costs are cut by up to 50% through reduced preparation, spinning and personnel expenses. The knot-free, uniform quality of the yarns guarantees fault-free filters and constant micron values, with the layered structure creating a hairy surface that is ideal for filtering purposes.
DREF 2000 ADVANTAGES
- System flexibility and simplicity
- Production of both ‘S’ and ‘Z’ yarns at any time without mechanical alterations to the machine
- Expansion of the scope of yarn and fibre utilization in the medium yarn count range
- Reduced yarn preparation costs due to high sliver weights (card slivers)
- Dust extraction for secondary fibres
- Touch Screen: – allows the easy handling of the various yarn parameters – yarn count calculation, length and weight measurement are included by means of the PLC control – link to the customer’s computer is possible by means of an interface
- High spinning speeds
- High Bobbin weights
- Low energy costs due to the use of only 1 fan for 12 spinning heads
- Simple, variable and single adjustment of the negative pressure for all spinning heads.
- Feeding of all types of filaments, yarns and components as yarn cores, in order to attain high yarn strength and production speeds, voluminous yarns and specific product characteristics
