Uster® Quantum 2 Reaches Milestone

Switzerland-based Uster Technologies AG reported that it has delivered 1.5 million of its Uster® Quantum yarn clearers, citing this latest milestone as proof that the spinning sector increasingly demands online quality control during production.

According to the company, the Uster Quantum’s success comes from its ongoing technological development in response to customers’ needs, which has made its yarn clearers — specifically the Quantum 2 — an “indispensable tool” for spinners worldwide.

Quantum 2 highlights include: capacitive basic clearing combined with optimized foreign fiber cleaning; advanced clearing limit optimization using computer aided yarn clearing; detection of low-intensity foreign fibers; a vegetable filter to filter out plant matter; total production quality monitoring on the same basis as the Uster Tester and Uster Classimat Quantum; and detection of white and colored polypropylene; among other highlights.
