A fundamental element for the textile industry
Creels are looms used in the textile industry to wind yarns. They are composed of two rolls, an upper and a lower one, which rotate in opposite directions. The yarn is wound onto the top roll, while the bottom roll is used to provide tension to the thread.
Creels can be of different sizes and types, depending on the type of yarn that is used. There are creels for yarns made of cotton, wool, silk, polyester and many other materials.
Creels serve several purposes:
Winding the yarn: the creels allow you to wind the yarn in an orderly and compact way, facilitating its handling and storage.
Tensioning the thread – The creels provide the right tension to the thread during weaving, ensuring a uniform, high-quality result.
Control the winding speed: The winding speed of the yarn can be adjusted according to the needs of the weaving process.
Creels are a fundamental element for the textile industry. They are used in all phases of the production process, from spinning to weaving. High-quality creels are essential to ensure the production of high-quality fabrics.
Here are some other interesting details about creels:
The creels can be manual or automatic. Manual creels are operated by an operator, while automatic creels are controlled by a computer.
Creels can be used to wind yarns of different lengths and thicknesses.
Creels are often used in combination with other textile machinery, such as looms and spinning machines.
