Karl Mayer Introduces Elast-O-Matic DSE-HH 50/32 Elastane Warper

Germany-based Karl Mayer Textilmaschinenfabrik GmbH reports its Elast-O-Matic DSE-HH 50/32 elastane warping machine can warp elastane yarns at a rate of 400 meters per minute — 25-percent faster than the company's earlier-generation DSE-H 50/30 machine. According to Karl Mayer, the new machine offers improved precision and ease of operation for optimized productivity in processing of all types of commercially available materials, and is particularly suited for processing especially fine elastane yarns and for use in conjunction with the latest warp-knitting technology.

New features offered with the Elast-O-Matic include multi-motor drives to replace the existing drive system, fault analysis and recording beam data software that has been upgraded to the level of Karl Mayer's KAMCOS® (Karl Mayer Command System) technology, and an integrated Teleservice package. The machine also offers new pressure measurement technology comprising sensors integrated into the pre-drawing unit¹s bearings, enabling automatic equalization of yarn tension within and between packages. The tension is adjusted using an electronic, fixed cam.
