technology, spinning mills can freely
select how many spinning positions
are used for the individual lots,
and naturally lot changes are flowing,
during full production. Thus
spinning mills are able to cut storage
costs and earn money even with
smaller lots.
With the Autocoro 8, spinning

mills save all the way down the line.
In the case of raw materials that
overtax the automated systems on
rotor spinning machines with belt
drives and force the efficiency rating
downwards, the Autocoro 8 masters
these easily with its individually automated
spinning positions.
The packages of the Autocoro 8
contain up to 10 per cent more yarn
with the proven package diameter.
That reduces logistics costs, ranging
from tube costs via the cost of packaging
and transport through to the
vehicle fleet and staff costs. Spinning
mill customers likewise benefit
from the improved packages due to
their longer running times and improved
unwinding properties.
Furthermore, spinning
mills save energy. On
rotor spinning machines
with belt drives, idle
time, whether on machine
start-up, lot changing
or in the manufacture
of sample packages, is a
necessary evil that consumes
energy without
producing. This energy
killer is a thing of the past
with the Autocoro 8, because
only the spinning
positions that are producing
are using power.
Stopping the machine,
changing belts, testing
drives and bearings –
spinning mills now do no
longer need to do any of
these. With the Autocoro
8 they achieve cost-saving
lean maintenance in
their rotor spinning mill
for the first time. While
single spinning positions
are maintained, the other
spinning positions continue
producing. And the
general cleaning intervals
are also prolonged by at
least 50 per cent.
