With the Yarn twister it is possible to twist wire /yarn longitudinally. This prepares the thread/yarn quickly and reproducibly for tensile tests.
Function
The yarn is held in the tooling using a clamping mechanism. The tooling is mounted on an electric motor, which is set via a touch panel.
The user can set the number of revolutions, or have them calculated automatically based on the length of the wire.
Then the device is started and the yarn is twisted.
The yarn must be held at one end by the user, or secured.
After each cycle, the tooling always stops with the clamping block facing up, so that it is easy to operate.
Clamp Tooling
The Yarn twister is equipped with a Tooling clamp. This clamps the thread/yarn slip-free. Clamping block is manually (against spring pressure) moved backwards, so that wire can be inserted freely. Clamp-Tooling is ergonomically developed so that this can be done with one hand, and the other hand is free to insert the wire.
