  2. Keeping consistent sliver quality
  3. Improving productivity and machine utilization
  4. Extending machine lifetime

Description

Maintenance budgets are tight and machine downtimes are costly. Rieter’s modular maintenance concept enables spinning mills to follow a structured and simple maintenance approach throughout the product lifecycle. It helps plan the maintenance budget and prevents machine downtime.

Overview

The card maintenance kits consist of key spare parts with a high impact on performance and lifetime of machines C 60 and C 70. Replacing those parts at the same time does not only improve machine performance but also reduces the overall conversion cost. New spare parts and components ensure that machines retain their key functionality. This also prevents costly repairs in the long term.

Mini Kit

The card mini kit is designed to leverage the potential of the new wire and extend its benefits as much and as long as possible. While the doffing cylinder and its wire play a key role in achieving peak quality, many additional items around it are required to support its function. A mini kit consists of technological and consumable parts that have a lifetime of one to three years.

Customer values

  • Reducing sliver breaks
  • Achieving consistent sliver quality throughout the wire lifetime
  • Minimizing energy consumption

Performance Kit

The performance kit is designed to ensure trouble-free performance of the machine over the next four to six years. This kit consists of bearings, seals, springs, brushes and many more to ensure the proper functioning of the drive elements. Changing the parts of the performance kit can be planned alongside the regular machine maintenance schedule and is recommended at least every six years.

Customer values

  • Achieving high machine efficiency with minimum downtime
  • Reducing yarn imperfection and classimate faults
  • Extending lifetime of machine and parts

Overhaul Kit

In the carding machine the fibers are processed in a narrow gap between two rotating components. It is essential to maintain a high precision to the critical dimension parts like flexible bend, flat rods and sliver measuring unit.

The card overhaul kit includes these key critical components that contribute to quality and production. This kit extends the machine’s lifetime to several years while maintaining its original performance. It comes with two optional packages, which allow customers to customize the kit based on their requirements.

Customer values

  • Reducing sliver breaks
  • Improving sliver evenness and uniformity
  • Achieving uniform material feed from chute to the card
  • Extending lifetime of machine and parts
