Option 3: Zinser 451 C 3
Top worsted yarn compact quality for
every metre of yarn –
on the safe side with CompACT 3
Zinser 451 C 3 for the best compact quality all
the way
> Greatest application range - worsted yarn
compact spinning for almost all fibre types and
blends
> For fine and finest count ranges
> Reliable compacting with the self-cleaning
compact unit
> Impressive compact quality with high strength
and low hairiness
> Development of new textile products with yarn
engineering
> Advantages and cost savings in the downstream
process stages
Intelligent, low-maintenance technology
The Zinser CompACT 3 system shows its strength in the
demanding worsted yarn spinning process in particular. The
processing of wool poses special demands which are easily
met by the system.
The entire system is self-cleaning. It is immune to wool
grease, textile lubricants and fi nishing agents, thus always
ensuring a consistently high level of machine performance
with low maintenance times and low costs. It comes as no
surprise, therefore, that the Zinser CompACT 3 system proves
itself every day around the globe.
Top results constantly
The system is also synonymous with outstanding process
reliability and a uniformly high yarn quality. With the Zinser
CompACT 3 , you produce compacted and even top-dyed
yarns without any problems. A separate negative pressure
for the compact unit ensures that this is made possible while
maintaining a constantly uniform yarn quality.

Self-cleaning CompACT 3 technology
by Zinser guarantees that compacting
is reliable and perfect at all times.
Continuous, personnel-intensive
monitoring is not necessary.
The flexibly adjustable tension draft is ideal as well for
processing wool fibres. With its help, each wool grade can
be adjusted perfectly. You simply adjust the transfer to the
different wool finenesses and the wool crimping.
Higher productivity
Naturally, in addition to the excellent yarn quality, the productivity
of a system is the most important thing in compact
spinning. The Zinser CompACT 3 system scores here too.
Compared with classic ring spinning systems, an approx.
50 % reduction in yarn breaks can be recorded. As well as
this, the twist factor can be reduced by 10 to 15 % with the
same strength and elongation. The bottom line is a significant
increase in productivity for you.
The compact spinning method can be
used to spin even the finest top-dyed
yarns without any problems.
CompACT3 : The increased quality of the finished product is clearly palpable and
visible. (close-up image on left)
Modular Concept 451 07

Option 4: Zinser 451s
The speed turbo: spin premium worsted yarns up to
33 % more productively with spin fi nger technology
Zinser 451s – Spin finger technology for highly
productive worsted yarn ring spinning
> Productivity increases of up to 33 % are possible
> Reduced balloon, reduced spinning tension
> The spindle speed can be increased significantly
> Alternatively, the number of yarn breaks is
reduced at a constant speed
> Model variant Zinser 451s+ can be optionally
converted to CompACT3 Reduced balloon, increased productivity
In spin fi nger spinning, the yarn balloon is reduced by repeated
yarn wrapping around the spin fi nger. At the same
time, the spinning tension is reduced.
The result is more productivity. Compared with classic worsted
yarn spinning, the yarn break rate in spin fi nger spinning
is considerably lower in relation to the speed. You either
profi t from a more favourable yarn break rate - or you can
spin much faster at the same yarn break rate.
Outstanding yarn values
With or without spin fi nger – each Zinser Modular Concept
451 supplies premium worsted yarn all the way. Spin fi nger
technology offers you a signifi cant increase in productivity at
the same time as maximum, constant yarn quality.
Increase production by up to 33 %

Fast lot changing with EasySpin
The controlled drafting system drive ServoDraft permits fast
lot changing times and therefore maximum flexibility. Changing
the yarn count and twist is carried out easily and quickly
at the EasySpin touchscreen of the machine. Twist and draft
are infinitely variable.
ServoDraft thinks with you and safeguards your
quality
The closed control circuit ensures that the pre-set draft is
precisely maintained. ServoDraft checks the set values for
plausibility and consistency before they are used by the machine
control system. This prevents yarn breaks and faults.
Production data can be stored and called up at any time.

Double power in the draft system for extra-long ring
spinning machines
SynchroDraft is the name of the powerhouse for extra-long
ring spinning machines with up to 1200 spindles. The middle
bottom rollers are driven from both sides. The drafting system
drive is optimally synchronised.
SynchroDrive – synchronous operation of all
spindles, uniform twist in yarn
SynchroDrive ensures precise, synchronous running of the
spindles, the prerequisite for the lowest possible twist variations
in the spun yarn. The unique Zinser multi-motor drive
system is performance-optimised for low energy consumption.
Zinser high-performance spindles
– high economic efficiency through
lower energy requirements.
Conventional
OptiMove
Uniform strain is guaranteed across the entire traversing width by the direct
roving guide drive OptiMove
Longer service life with OptiMove
Another technological highlight is the separate electric roving
guide drive OptiMove. Aprons and top rollers are subject to
uniform strain across the entire traversing width with OptiMove.
Wear is reduced and service life is increased significantly.
The roving guide drive is easily set using inductive proximity
switches.
High speeds with Zinser high-performance spindles
You can take full advantage of the productivity potential in
your machine with Zinser spindles. The precise and highly
stable bearing technology in particular ensures absolute running
smoothness at top speeds. The spindles are economic
thanks to their low energy consumption, require little maintenance
and have a long service life.

Automatically more productive
Doffi ng with Zinser CoWeMat – gentle
on the yarn, secure, reliable
The most productive doffing technology
on the market
> Optimal doffing automation solutions for standalone
and linked machines
> Peak efficiency thanks to maximised operating
security
> Reduced personnel requirements with CoWeFeed
- unsorted tube feeding – only from Zinser
> Fully automated doffing with monitoring - well
under 2 minutes
> Top yarn quality thanks to yarn-protecting
transport with pneumatic outer grippers.
Optimised transport times in combination with
>
the BobbinTray, reserves even for long machines
Secure automation for more productivity
The Zinser CoWeMat has proved itself around the world as
the most reliable and economic doffi ng technology. The doffing
speed is clearly set up for operational reliability. Because
the most important thing in your spinning mill is how many
kilos of yarn are actually produced at the end of the shift: day
by day, machine by machine, lot by lot.
Precision from the centre
The frequency-controlled centre drive ensures absolutely
synchronous operation of the two doffi ng bars - for peak,
proven operational reliability. Effi ciency is signifi cantly increased.
Seamless monitoring, reliable doffi ng
A light barrier monitors the smooth doffi ng processes. In the
case of a malfunction, the machine stops automatically and
signals the interruption.
Yarn-protecting bobbin transport
Pneumatic outer grippers with a wide catching radius grasp
the bobbins and tubes securely and precisely at the tube tip.
The three-point grip at the tip prevents damage to the yarn
body. The outer grippers are also highly suitable for yarns
with high tensile strengths in combination with the Zinser
spindle cutting technology.

Even faster with CoWeMat 395 F and unsorted tube
feeding
The Zinser CoWeMat 395 F relieves you of even more work
on stand-alone machines. CoWeFeed can take the unsorted
empty tubes and discharge them into the feed container of
the ring spinning machine.
CoWeFeed significantly reduces machine operating outlay
and eliminates manual tube sorting into boxes.
CoWeFeed is particularly attractive for extra-long machines
with 1200 spindles. Here too bobbin removal and the feeding
of empty tubes are easily implemented between two doffing
operations, as the cycle times are very fast.
A doffing operation can be processed even for 1200 spindles
with one tube filling on the CoWeFeed. There are no interruptions
due to a lack of tubes.
Only at Zinser: the tubes are simply discharged into the container – CoWeFeed
automatically supplies itself.
The CoWeMat outer grippers protect your yarn.
Zinser CoWeMat 395 V – the combined solution for
more economic efficiency
The CoWeMat 395 V is a complete doffing and transport
system, suitable for linked systems with all commercial winding
machines. The Zinser BobbinTray system transports bobbins
and empty tubes without contact, thus ensuring high
Zinser yarn quality.
The individually guided, round BobbinTrays and the conveyor
belt ensure precise positioning during doffing and a quick,
reliable material flow.
Customised: steaming in linked systems
Of course, the Modular Concept 451 ring spinning machines
offer the optimal interface in each case for all commercial
linked steaming systems. The continuous steaming process
between the ring spinning and the winding machine additionally
reduces production throughput times.
More productivity: Zinser BobbinTrays fit all commercial linked systems.

Article data archive for rapid access
You gain in flexibility with the EasySpin article data archive –
you can store up to 10 different yarn lots per machine and
call them up at any time. This reduces set-up times to a
minimum. You can, therefore, produce any yarn lot at any
time with identical quality.
Even more flexible with an USB flash drive
In addition, any number of lots can be saved on an USB
flash drive and can be transferred from one Zinser ring
spinning machine to another.
Convenient and cost-saving: OptiStart, the
automatic ring traveller running-in program
The automatic ring traveller running-in program OptiStart
reliably and precisely executes the individual running-in
phases of the ring travellers up to production speed. This
significantly increases the traveller service life and relieves
your personnel.
Even when making frequent changes, you can easily produce identical yarn
quality by simply transferring the data on an USB flash drive – no time-consuming
programming involved.
Higher speeds with OptiStep
Ensure maximum productivity with OptiStep. The start-up,
tip and main spinning speeds can be defined with a 10 point
speed curve. This means you can operate far closer to the
technological spinning limit across the entire bobbin build
and achieve peak production. The traveller service life is also
extended.

Spin twisted yarn directly at the ring spinning machine - with
the ring spinning machine Modular Concept 451 and the
SiroSpun option. Technology which is only made possible
thanks to outstanding machine precision
In the economic SiroSpun process, two rovings are led in
parallel through the drafting system and are only combined
after the nip point of the front top and front bottom rollers.
A Siro yarn is produced from the twisted single yarns – a
twofold ply yarn with twist.
The Zinser Siro yarn is as convincing in further processing
as in the fi nished product – thanks to a round yarn crosssection,
outstanding high yarn strength and a smooth yarn
surface with a low level of hairiness.
Spin hard and soft core yarns easily with Zinser
CoreSpun
Expand your product range with core yarns and thus a wide
range of applications – for example fi ne and at the same time
comfortable suiting fabrics. In CoreSpun soft, an elastic core
made of continuous fi lament is covered with the fi bre material
and provides it with favourable properties: more elasticity
and wear comfort. You can also select CoreSpun hard, with
a non-elastic core, for more strength in the yarn or you can
combine both processes.
Finest, elastic suiting fabrics
By the way: SiroSpun and CoreSpun soft can be combined.

this closed control circuit.
OptiSuction also with Zinser CompACT 3
The Zinser 451 C 3 and Zinser 451 sC 3 machines also have a
second negative pressure unit for compacting, also with the
energy-optimised and controlled OptiSuction system.

Detect and rectify yarn breaks faster
Increase the productivity of your spinning mill with an optional
automated production monitoring system. So that yarn breaks
cause the least possible damage.
The electronic eye: FilaGuard
The individual yarn monitor FilaGuard monitors the rotation of
the steel ring traveller on each individual spindle and detects
each yarn break immediately. Optical signals indicate the
specific yarn break, effectively relieving the workload of operating
personnel. The problem can be rapidly rectified.
Roving stop RovingGuard prevents material losses
and lapping
The automatic roving stop RovingGuard interrupts the roving
feed in the area of the drafting system if there is a yarn break.
The reaction occurs within milliseconds. Material loss is minimised
and dangerous lapping is prevented.
Networked quality and production management
With the Plant Operation Center (POC) you are always up to
date as to the staff deployment and the level of efficiency at
which your system is currently operating.
Your Oerlikon Schlafhorst product lines are linked up via a
system network employing a central POC computer. All production
and quality data are acquired online and are available
via mouse click as shift or production reports. With information
prepared in detail you optimise your operational application
flows and in this way increase the economic success of
your company.
The optical FilaGuard indicator shows your
operator a yarn break even from large distances –
it can then be specifically and rapidly rectified.

The right construction counts
Zinser Modular Concept 451 – developed
for the best worsted yarns in the world
Design advantage for the best spinning results
on a continuous basis
> All components produced with maximum
precision
> Technologically important components from
in-house production in Germany
> Stable construction of machine frame with
intermediate stands made of cast iron
> Doffer forces do not affect the machine
> Creel forces do not affect the drafting system
> Precisely centred running of yarn guiding
elements with separate guides
High-tech from Germany
You obtain innovative Oerlikon Schlafhorst state-of-the-art
technology with the Modular Concept 451 worsted yarn
spinning machines. All components are manufactured with
the highest possible precision. Technologically important
components such as spindles and drafting system components
are from our own production in Germany.
Decoupled construction ensures the best running
conditions
Doffer forces do not affect the machine. The intermediate
stands absorb the creel forces without negatively affecting
the drafting system.

Ring rail
Balloon control ring
Yarn guide
Precisely centred running of yarn guiding elements with separate guides – the
constructive basis for the production of popular premium yarns.
Precise manufacturing, precise yarn
The intermediate stands are made from cast iron and therefore
form a stable foundation for the machine frame. The
cast iron intermediate stands are produced at the same time
as the mountings for the yarn guiding element guide units.
These parts are therefore produced with excellent fit accuracy,
also ensuring that the machine frames are perfectly
aligned. This achieves utmost precision for the movement of
the yarn guiding elements.
The spindle rails are also manufactured from solid cast iron
like the intermediate stands. The vibration-damping properties
of cast iron have a positive effect on the running behaviour
of the ring spinning machines and therefore on the yarn
quality.
More than 300 developers work at Oerlikon Schlafhorst every day on new
solutions for top productivity in the textile process chain.
Precise spinning geometry for top yarn quality due
to separate guidance of the yarn guide elements
The yarn guiding element drive is provided by a programmecontrolled
motor. The bobbin build with winding length, traverse
length and displacement can be centrally and precisely
specified at the EasySpin touchscreen and can be quickly
and easily optimised.
The precise guidance of the yarn guiding elements is supported
by precision guides on all intermediate stands. These
guide elements are low-maintenance and are characterised
by a long service life. The precise position of each individual
yarn guiding element is therefore ensured. The spinning
tension is kept constant by precisely matched movements,
which in turn has a positive effect on the running behaviour
of the ring spinning machines.
