NEW "the wolf" is here

The Covering machine has a heavy energy consumption start up and load mechanical application. The inertial mass of the bobbins, spindles and yarn packages and the mechanical transmission which controls the drive motions is extremely high with a rapid acceleration and deceleration of the machine speed. The choice of motor and control method is extremely important. The machine is aimed at a technological need for heavy use where long production runs are interspersed with short breaks for the operations of doffing the products being processed. The motor and control system have be chosen to ensure accuracy, continuity and reliability over the years. The current technology provides different types of speed and depending on the type of starts are dimensioned sizes of motors that drive the machine, better the ability to control the power consumption of the motors during acceleration. The smaller the size of motors that can be installed, many cases the condition occurs so that, once the motor is started, the consumption turns out to be much lower than the installed power in practice a large part of the installed capacity appears to be required for motor start up, it is clear that for a lower installed capacity results in a lower power consumption resulting in energy savings scheme.

What is it and how it works. e.joint is a patented unit to be installed in combination with an induction motor or incorporated with the possibility of incorporating a small generator to power e.power if network failure of the electronic machine.  e.traverse, from the constructive system e.joint can be likened to an electric motor, because it meets all the features and reliability of an induction motor so that it can be incorporated in the same motor housing. The system allows control of the synchronous speed of the spindles   from 0 rpm permitted by the pulley installed. There is  no longer need to change the pulleys installed for the change of speed spindles. e.joint system allows you to control the machine process with the same or different speeds by installing a single motor size proportionate to the actual power consumed. There being no need for over-sizing the installed capacity to ensure the motor starting the system is therefore extremely efficient and reliable and can, give energy savings up to 35%. The system also allows e.joint with e.shaft machine speeds the power, pulling and collection, drive synchronously with a closed loop start from 0 rpm to maximum speed available without a 'set of gears by using the motor that controls the speed of the spindles. With the e.wave you can also modular  program the automatic machine speed to encourage bands to lower energy costs or to maintain constant power consumption by dramatically reducing the cycle time of manufacturing process, in some cases up to 15%. These and many other features distinguish the system e.joint from traditional methods of monitoring covering machines. Many other features are also available in combination with the new electronic traverse system  e.traverse of Gigitex Srl with its control algorithm e.flex and multiple functionality allows complete control of the covering machines  in its three versions: base, premium and enterprise.
