Cone Transport System for spinning mills

CTS picks up finished cones from autowinders, rotor spinning and airjet/vortex machines, carries them to the packing area and sorts them article-wise into pallets or trolley bins. No human touch from winding to packing.

Collects from: Ring spinning: autowinder (Murata, Savio, Schlafhorst) · Rotor spinning · Airjet / Vortex spinning

Running at Suryalata Spinning Mills as part of a fully automated packing line.

Why CTS

Benefits

  • Automatic handling

    Picks up finished cones from each machine and moves them to the packing area.

  • Article-wise sorting

    Sorts cones into pallets or trolley bins by article, so different counts never mix.

  • Uninterrupted production

    Doffed cones are removed promptly, so winding never waits.

  • Less contamination

    No manual handling means less dirt and damage on the package.

  • Labour savings

    Removes the manual carrying and sorting jobs between winding and packing.

  • Fits your line

    Integrates with your existing machines and feeds Auto Cone-Pack directly.

How it works

Process

  1. Cone collection

    Cones are collected from autowinder, airjet/vortex or rotor spinning machines.

  2. Transport

    Cones travel from the winding section to the packing area.

  3. Cone inspection

    Computer vision checks each cone so defective cones are not packed.

  4. Article sorting

    Cones and cheeses of different articles are sorted onto pallets or into trolley bins.

  5. Pallet transport

    Finished pallets move on for yarn conditioning and packing; empty pallets are loaded back.

  6. Feeding Auto Cone-Pack

    Cones are fed automatically from finished pallets into the packing system.
