Intermingling<br />
Intermingling of yarn and there especially the number and regularity of the intermingling knots are one<br />
of the prerequisites for high end downstream operation. <strong>Oerlikon</strong> <strong>Barmag</strong> in close cooperation with<br />
world renowned brands for intermingling jets offers with the <strong>eAFK</strong> machine a wide range of intermingling<br />
possibilities throughout the process. Intermingling is an option that depending on downstream<br />
requirement has to be discussed.<br />
Pre-intermingling<br />
While processing fi ne denier and especially highlychallenging<br />
microfi ber with high number of fi laments, pre-intermingling<br />
can be an attractive solution for improving the quality of<br />
the fi nal yarn, overcoming manufacturing problems and<br />
increasing overall machine performance.<br />
Furthermore special products manufactured with special<br />
intermingling jets can create competitive advantages. The<br />
<strong>eAFK</strong> machine offers the possibility for implementing the<br />
intermingling piping required for pre-intermingling at the<br />
fi rst feed.<br />
Intermingling<br />
Regular and high quality intermingling is crucial to success<br />
especially for downstream weaving applications and here for<br />
warp yarns. To achieve the best-possible intermingling, the<br />
<strong>Oerlikon</strong> <strong>Barmag</strong> <strong>eAFK</strong> includes the so-called intermingling<br />
zone upstream to the secondary heater. It comprises<br />
two feed systems (G2 and the additional G2x) that allow<br />
stable and controlled yarn processing within a defi ned<br />
14 <strong>eAFK</strong> – <strong>Oerlikon</strong> <strong>Barmag</strong><br />
area. The integrated intermingling piping, equipped with<br />
straight couplings, offers easy handling and operation of the<br />
respective jets.<br />
Detorque<br />
In the event that customers wish to produce close to zero<br />
torque yarn without the need to ply yarns, <strong>Oerlikon</strong> <strong>Barmag</strong><br />
offers a detorque intermingling system for the <strong>eAFK</strong>.<br />
Located between the secondary heater and the third feed<br />
unit the intermingling piping can be equipped with special<br />
jets that create a yarn that is not completely without torque,<br />
but with minimal torque. Detorque works only with PET<br />
and requires a set heater. It is an alternative to plying yarns,<br />
which reduces the takeup capacity of the respective DTY<br />
machine by half (for 2-ply), in the event that the yarn is plied<br />
on conventional rather than Multispindle machines.
