Carriers for fine and delicate braided threads

The Ecartamiento 80 carriers are robust for durability and precision and have been designed for the production of fine fabrics with very low denier. There are 3 sizes of bobbins:

  • Ø 39×110 mm. with a capacity of 97 cm³ (ideal for sutures)
  • Ø 42×110 mm. with a capacity of 125 cm³
  • Ø 42×153 mm. with a capacity of 173 cm³”
83L System: The most advanced mechanical system

83L System: This advanced mechanical system, originally patented by Ratera, features wear-resistant components made of tempered and ground steel with a medium hardness of 610 Brinell (± 20 points). The spindle feet utilize rotating bushings, and the blade cuts are made using plastic segments. The system achieves three significant outcomes:

    • Increased Production Speed: Boosts production speed by 18% to 25%.
    • Minimal Maintenance Costs: Requires little to no maintenance or part replacements in the short or medium term.
    • Reduced Noise Level: Significantly lowers noise during operation.
