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.
The ring and compact-spinning maintenance kits consist of key spare parts with a high impact on machine performance and lifetime. 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.
The mini kit for ring and compact spinning consists of key components in the drafting, spindle, suction and doffer zone with a lifetime of approximately one to three years. The compacting components are included in K mini kit which improves the compacting yarn quality. The key components like belts support an efficient power transmission, while the gripper membrane, seals and felts play a key role in achieving consistent productivity. To maintain optimal machine performance, Rieter recommends replacing these components at a set interval.
The performance kit for ring and compact spinning is designed to ensure trouble-free performance of the machine over the next four to six years. This kit consists of key parts in drafting and spinning zone. The key technological parts like spindle brake, thread guide, roll, bearings, torsion spring, tape tension roller, traveler clearer and separator ensure consistent quality and increased productivity.
The overhaul kit for ring and compact spinning includes key components to ensure high machine efficiency, components with long lifetime contributing to quality and production and allowing that the machine is ready for the next decade of operation. The kit consists of key components in the creel, drafting, spindle drive and suction zone. The kit extends the machine’s lifetime to several years while maintaining its original performance. Rieter recommends replacing it every seven to ten years.
Frequent and repeated maintenance of the doffer as well as checking and resetting the system has a significant impact on the machine efficiency, especially in the mid and long-term. If the doffing cycle is delayed, for instance due to an elongated servo disc belt, the productivity of the spinning machine will drop and impact costs.
Investing in regular maintenance is smart and helps prevent breakdowns. Rieter maintenance kits combine spare and wear parts with the corresponding service life to improve machine performance and reduce conversion costs.
Sreedhara Textiles has upgraded its ring spinning machines G 32 and G 36 with a ring spinning performance kit improving productivity, yarn quality and power savings.
