Sample lots easy to insert Time [h]

Sample lots as a number of small packages out of a running lot are possible. They can be integrated directly into cur-
rent production with no loss of productivity. Then, as required, current production is seamlessly resumed or a very fast
runout is initiated.

Intelligent scheduling avoids idling


Lot changes on the R 66 can be started immediately. However, if production is still required, the machine can indepen-
dently determine how much time is still needed. Thus, the R 66 can also be programmed to a target time at which the lot
is expected to run out. This allows accurate planning so that at this time everything is ready for the changeover and
the new lot. It avoids downtime and waiting time.

The Rieter eXpert system makes available to all users
the experience gained by Rieter over decades, including
the constant improvements in piecing technology.

For an initial setting, it is sufficient to define the

find suitable settings for the remaining five param-

Ideal Package Build-Up


Full flexibility to create optimum packages

The new electro mechanical yarn traverse (EMYT) offers full flexibility to adapt all winding parameters electronically.
The size of the package can be optimised for transportation by adapting the winding width and winding length. Opti-
mised package density is possible by setting winding tension and edge displacement.

The intelligent control of the EMYT automatically adapts the traverse motion to the delivery speed in order to create
best package flanges.

Ideal equipment for high density


packages as standard
The sophisticated winding system of the R 66 makes it
possible to achieve extremely soft or hard packages. An
adjustable pneumatic damping element secures uniform
winding pressure for the whole package even at high
density (e.g. for viscose).

The CHANNELinserts with / without SPEEDpass** to optimise the fibre flow


The optional SPEEDpass opening

connection of the spinning vacuum

is advantageous to transport the

New CHANNELpass** to adopt to fibre types


Best spinning results are achievable with optimum adaption of fibre guiding to the application. The S 66 spin box
includes a unique exchangeable CHANNELpass. This part influences the pass-over of the fibres from the opening roller
to the fibre channel.

Independent sides for increased


flexibility
Both machine sides can be optionally operated com-
pletely independently of each other*. Lots with differ-
ent yarn counts, raw materials and settings are clearly
separated from each other by separate transport belts.
A lot change or maintenance procedures can be carried
out on both sides independently. The spinning com-
ponents can be simply and clearly organised for each
machine side.

Each side has its own tube loader which prevents mix-up
of the tube colour and increases the speed at which
the tubes are fed. In addition, this option makes available
double the quantity of tubes.

The individually-driven feed rollers can be utilised for

yarns with especially distinctive and symmetrical effects.
The system can produce up to 2.3 slubs per metre of yarn. R 66 VARIOspin slub yarn with Amsler E-Profi

Ideal for automated package removal


Thanks to a jointly defined interface all important suppliers of package transport systems are able to integrate R 66 into
their systems. The horizontal position of package belt is ideally suitable to handover the packages. The clear separation
of left and right machine sides allows a clear and secure control even with two lots on one machine.

The package lift of the R 66 can furthermore be used as a backup for package removal in case of transport system error
in order to prevent a spinning standstill.

Machine Concept for Cost-Saving Operation


The small details that help to make daily savings

Clear and robust machine concept Nozzle

The machine concept of the R 66 is based on clear


design, robust construction and easy access. Customers
confirm this advantage.

Faster lot change without tools**


All spinning elements in the new, optimised S 66 CHANNELinsert
spin box can be exchanged without tools.

In particular, the new TWISTunit consisting of noz-


zle, channel insert and TWISTstop can be manually TWISTstop
replaced in one movement in a few seconds. This
allows an especially fast lot change.

Simple operation on machine display


The innovative graphic touch screen display is clearly
designed and can be intuitively operated. Easy to under-
stand graphics and modern aids such as fast access via
“favourite keys” support the operator. Three separate,
secured access levels protect against unauthorised
access.

For a quick documentation, the data shown can be


saved on a USB stick.

Easier access for maintenance


During the development of the R 66, special attention was paid to accessibility of the machine components. Drives and
electronic components are located centrally. As with the spinning elements, the whole spinning unit is also replaceable
without using tools.

Large cans compactly accommodated

vides space for cans with a diameter of


2 460 mm 2 460 mm
470 mm (18½˝), arranged in 2 rows to
save space.The distance from machine

than 3.8 m and even allows a row of
reserve cans to be positioned. Even with
larger can diameters, the arrangement of
the cans remains space-saving.

New step in operator friendliness


The new spin box S 66 is easy to open. It thus saves operator time.
Consequently, longer R 66 machines can be operated without
additional personnel.

Cost saving central drives


The central drives of the R 66 require far less maintenance in the
long term than drive systems with many smaller motors, aprons
and electronic components on every spinning unit. The necessary
maintenance is concentrated on very few areas.
