Introducing CreelMT by Modra Technology

CreelMT™ is an Automated yarn creeling system.

Modra Technology, innovators in soft flooring solutions, has launched the evolutionary automated yarn creeling system, CreelMT™ for tufted carpet manufacturers.

CreelMT™ combines Gilbos precision winders to accurately measure the length of yarn required for each needle position along with robotic package handling to place wound packages of yarn into a mobile creel.

CreelMT™ will bring many benefits to your business, including:
Sales and Profitability
• Short runs - precision winding and the reduction in labour and time required to prepare a job mean that shorter runs become viable.
• Quality – bit or back-wound yarn can impact on the quality of the end product. Yarn passes through the CreelMT™ system once, reducing knots and splices.
Production Efficiency
• Improve OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) - increase the available time of the tufting machine by quickly exchanging mobile creels.
• Wastage – precision winding means yarn wastage is reduced to around 2% - 5%.
• Compact - to service a tufting machine with 1,000 ends (for example), CreelMT™ needs less than 50% of the equivalent space required for a traditional fixed creel.
Labour and OH&S Benefits
• Ease of use - pattern data is loaded directly from an Excel file, eliminating the chance of creeling errors.
• Labour saving - CreelMT™ completely removes the manual fixed creel loading time and reduces the splicing time by at least 50%.
• Safety - CreelMT™ is surrounded by a safety cage and improved manual handling eliminates the need to carry and place heavy packages of yarn into a fixed creel.

Creel and loom tension is that still a problem?
