Foreign Part Separator

foreign-part-separator-main

Tailor-made system for the separation of foreign parts

SP-FPU

Within the framework of an optimal spinning mill preparation, American Truetzschler offers a complete, modular system for detection and safe separation of foreign parts without high fibre losses. The most effective protection here consists of two stages: One for the separation of metals, heavy parts and burning material at the start of the cleaner line and one for the specific separation of foreign parts (foreign fibres) at the end of the cleaning line. The wide range of American Truetzschler special machines makes it possible here to find the ideal configuration for each line:

    • Tailor-made modular system for:
    • Metal particles
    • Heavy parts
    • Foreign fibers
    • Fine dust
    • Optical detection of foreign fibers
    • Safe detection of white and transparent foreign parts
    • Efficient separation of foreign and metal parts
    • Flexible and simple integration in old and new installations
    • Quality assurance
    • Combination with de-dusting possible

The ”multi-talent” at the beginning of the line

SECUROPROP SP-FPO

With the new Multi Function Separator SP-MF, positioned directly after the Automatic Bale Opener BLENDOMAT BO-A, all relevant protective functions are realized respectively retrofitable, including the first de-dusting. The Multi Function machine is designed for production rates up to 2,000 kg/h. An integrated micro-computer control system controls all functions.

White PP and transparent PE foils

Foreign parts and foreign fibers must be divided into three completely different groups:

  • The first group are parts that differ significantly from cotton through their color, contrast and structure.
  • The second group comprises light and transparent objects.
  • The third group are white, not-transparent parts.

These foreign parts, which are usually polypropylene (PP) or PE foil, hardly differ in color from the cotton and are invisible to general foreign part separators.

American Truetzschler uses special sensors to detect foreign parts:

    • American Truetzschler color sensor
    • Colored parts
    • Incident light from two sides
    • American Truetzschler P sensor
    • Transparent/semi-transparent parts
    • Transmitted light and polarisation filter
    • American Truetzschler UV sensor
    • White, non-transparent parts
    • UV incident light

American Truetzschler combines the three sensors in one machine, so your production produces optimal results.
