MPF L - Positive feeder
Application
The MPF L impresses with its self-cleaning tension rings on the yarn infeed tensioner and closed, wear-free yarn feed wheel. Other features include the integrated anti-filamentation unit and accessible yarn outlet tension to approx. 1 cN.
Main features
- Ease of operation, maintenance-friendly, wear-free and long service life
- Self-cleaning vibrating yarn tensioner prevents machine stoppages and boosts productivity
- Even tension force due to magnetic tension ring
The components
Vibration Tension
The vibration causes the tensioner ring to rotate against the direction of rotation in comparison with other makers. This prevents the build up of dirt between the tension rings which are self-cleaning. No tensioner ring wear. No more fault stoppages means that knitting machine productivity increases.
Closed winding reel
The closed, low-wear winding reel prevents filament build up when processing filament yarns.
Integral anti-filamentation unit
When processing filament yarns capillary filaments can collect on the feed wheel and interfere with smooth yarn feed. The user can prevent this by selecting flat pulling for fibre yarns and pulling at a steep angle for filament yarns.
Infeed arm (optional)
This eliminates the obstruction as with the normal infeed bracket and so makes it quicker to change the drive belt on the MPF.
