Ever since the 1970s, when external friction texturing using three axle disc units made its breakthrough, solid ceramic friction discs made by CeramTec have demonstrated their ability in this process. They are extremely effective in the continuous operation of friction texturing. CeramTec solid ceramic friction discs have many decisive advantages when compared with other disc materials:
- Long service life, due to the material’s high wear & tear and corrosion resistance
- Even and constant yarn quality from position to position, due to the consistent disc finish
- No detrimental effect from spinning preparations, i.e., free choice of finishing agents
- No damage to friction disc in the event of running yarn at spindle-stop
- Considerable flexibility in speed and titre ranges, also successfully used in microfilament production
- Easy start-up of disc units, particularly at high yarn speeds, when yarn tends to jump out of the disc groove
- Universal cleaning possibilities: with acids, alkaline solutions, burning at high temperatures or in an ultrasonic bath
- Extremely low build-up of rubbing powder, especially when using Cerasoft® G
Depending on your application we offer 3 different surface types: Ceramtec-Standard, Cerasoft® G and Cerasoft® GX. The Cerasoft® G disc with a thickness of 9 mm allows extremely high speeds. At such yarn speeds, the disc and the yarn are running with speed differences on a level at which conventional disc materials (polyurethane, plasma coatings, nickel/diamond) will fail completely, or fail to give a good texture to the yarn. The development of Cerasoft® and its outstanding progress is the result of very close cooperation between texturing and preparation agent suppliers, and also between equipment and machine builders.
CeramTec high-performance discs are outstandingly well proven, and can be adapted easily for all well-known spindleunits, as Barmag, Rieter/ICBT, Rieter Scragg, TMT, Temco, Hongyuan, Jingwei.
