Motion detector WeftMaster® KW

industrialdigital

Overview
The WeftMaster® knot detector identifies knots in running yarn before they enter the fabric, enabling prompt removal of defective material to maintain production continuity and reduce waste. When a predefined number of knots is detected, the device can trigger integrated actions to protect downstream processes.

Key features

• Detection of knots in running yarn
• Integrated counter to record detected knots
• Configurable trigger when a maximum knot count is reached (e.g. stop prewinder to remove defective yarn)
• Digital signal output for machine integration

Benefits

• Prevents knots from entering the fabric to ensure product quality
• Improves machine efficiency and reduces fabric waste
• Simple operation and easy integration into production lines
• Compatible with a wide range of yarn types
