Warp Tying Installations

Warp tying machines TOPMATIC and MAGMA in connection with TPF3 tying frames are high-performance warp tying installations for universal use. This equipment guarantees for every weaving mill maximum efficiency during the warp change process. Optimum tying quality and the application for all yarn types lead to minimum down times on the weaving machine. Warp tying installation from Stäubli are both easy to operate and quick to set up, and thus an indispensable tool for all warp changes.

: Topmatic

: Magma

TOPMATIC characteristics

For cotton, wool, silk, blended yarns, filament yarn, monofilaments, technical yarns
Yarn count range from 0.8-500 tex / Nm 2-1250 / Ne 1.2-740 depending on material
600 knots per minute tying speed maximum, automatic repetition in case of fault
All combinations of lease types including irregular leases
Mechanical double end detection with lease
Electronic double end detection with or without lease
Models available for single or single and double knot, selectable
Electronic control for display, colour repeat and process data

MAGMA characteristics

For cotton, wool, linen, mono- and multifilament, PP-ribbons, technical yarns of all kinds
Yarn count range in warps with 1:1 lease from Nm 0.5 – 50, tex 2000 – 20
Optical double-yarn sensor is standard
Single or double knots (selected at the push of a button)
Length of knot ends is variable
No periodic immersion in an oil bath required – regular lubrication is enough
Drive system with an array of individually controlled motors
Applicable on all Stäubli tying frames type TPF3 (with extra racks)

While TOPMATIC is used with all standard and fine yarn types MAGMA is particularly suitable from very coarse to medium count yarn range as well as for technical yarns.

Main benefits

Efficiency:	Flexibility:	Quality:
Fast and comfortable warp preparation on the TPF3 tying frame Reliable knot formation even at maximum tying speed Warp threads are drawn through the weaving harness in a perfect manner	Practically all staple fibre and filament yarns can be tied without extensive adjustments in a wide range using single or double knots Suitable for warps with or without regular or irregular lease in upper or lower sheet, single or multi-colour, depending on model	The unique, patented electronic double thread detection of the TOPMATIC PC operates in warps with or without lease With MAGMA an optical double-yarn camera system is standard Considerably reduced double threads and redirected warp threads lead to an increased efficiency of the weaving machine

* All models available with PC = Electronic double end detection

MAGMA T12

MAGMA model T12 is suitable in particular for tying coarse and technical yarns of warps with 1:1 lease.

Tying frame TPF3

The TPF3 is a universal tying frame that can be used with all TOPMATIC and MAGMA tying machines and on all weaving machines with tying widths from 100 to 400 cm. Thanks to the wide range of configuration possibilities, which includes the selectable clamping principle as well as the availability of coupling frames for wider looms, the device can be optimally adapted to various needs.
