Application:

Yarn Strengthening in TFO Machines
(Textile Industry)

Action:

Achieving precise thermal processing of raw yarn threads using the GIC
temperature controller

GIC Temperature controller

Introduction:

A sturdy and fine yarn counts upon the two -for- one (TFO) twisting machines. The raw threads undergo a heat treatment in the heated chamber which is a critical part of this process to burn away the unwanted surface fibers that soften the yarn finish, and enhance tensile strength and durability.

Two for one twisting machines

Challenges:

Low temperature

Solution:

  • Model Used: TCS4T2A0
  • Sensor Type: PT100 (Platinum RTD)
  • Control Mode: PID
  • Output: SSR Relay
  • Set Point (SV): 205°C

Process Flow:

  • Feeding: Raw yarn rolls are loaded
  • Heating: PID-controlled chamber burns the surface fibers
  • Strengthening: Heat improves texture and tensile strength
  • Winding: Processed yarn collected for next steps

Benefit to Customer:

  • Stronger Yarn: Enhanced resistance and durability
  • Smooth Finish: Clean, fluff-free yarn texture
  • Consistent Output: Lowered batch variation
  • Operational Ease: Ease of monitoring and minimal Manual intervention

Conclusion:

The GIC PID Temperature Controller significantly improved the TFO yarn processing line, delivering better yarn quality, reliable thermal regulation, and smoother operations—setting a new benchmark in textile heat treatment accuracy.
