Mule spinning frame
The mule spinning frame guarantees the production of high-quality woollen yarns.
Main advantages of the mule spinning frame:
1) continuous draft on a 3 to 6 m- field, well above the ring spinning system. Recent laboratory tests confirmed that draft is more natural (no fibre or yarn stress) and homogenous, because the tensile force is spread across a much wider path length
2) Continuous yarn twist (without the false twist of the ring spinning system)
The yarn is constantly twisted before and after being spooled, thus preventing the uneven fibre relief on the winding axis and keeping the Uster uniformity index extremely high. The risk of ends breakage during the drafting operation is reduced when short and/or fine fibres are present, such as cashmere and angora or fibres of different type, fineness and length.
