Yarn Package Classifiers Winding Machinery

Model: SASD-684

Sorting yarn packages, analyzing production, and adjusting winding machinery has never been easier using Cross Precision Measurement’s (formerly J.A. King) yarn package classifiers. The Package Yarn Classifier quickly classifies by weight, diameter, and density with a complete set of dispersion statistics to predict trends in your winding process. Unit is an excellent quality control device for package winding operations, assuring uniform package pressure for yarn dyeing and color control.

Features and Benefits

An unlimited number of package types can be stored in the memory of the yarn package classifier which comprises a new state-of-the-art PC-based controller with 7 inch touch screen full-color display (network enabled) providing the following parameters:

Ideal Weight with Upper/Lower Tolerances

Ideal Diameter with Upper/Lower Tolerances

Ideal Density with Upper/Lower Tolerances (weight per unit volume)

Denier (Optional-at no cost)

Ideal Length with Upper/Lower Tolerances (Optional-at no cost)

Tare Weight of the Tube/Spring

Diameter of the Tube/Spring

Taper Angle

Initial Stroke Length

A complete summary of each classification can be printed as it occurs with Weight, Diameter, Density, and Length (Optional–at no cost). Also, a complete statistical report at the end of the run can be printed including the following dispersion statistics for weight, diameter, density, and length:

  • Minimum Value
  • Maximum Value
  • Range
  • Standard Deviation
  • Variance
  • Coefficient of Variation

Additional Features

  • Three different run modes for Production, Quality Control, and Quick type runs
  • Password protected product input and classifier setup
  • Faster operation – up to twice as fast as previous models
  • All components are stainless steel and sealed from the environment

Did you know… Cross Company is an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan). Our ESOP started in 1979 and as of 2006, we are 100% employee-owned! Learn more about our ESOP and how that benefits both team members and our customers.
Did you know... the precision measurement group at Cross was founded in 1939 by our current CEO's grandfather, Jim King. That's a whole lot of calibration!
Did you know... A fingerprint weighs about 50 micrograms. We know, we weighed it! The residue left from a finger can actually make a difference in weight results which is why we wear gloves when we calibrate weights. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 4.5 grams, that’s 4.5 million micrograms.
Did you know… Cross Company has grown significantly since our start in 1954. Over the years we've acquired 26 companies! Today, our five groups have expertise in everything from industrial automation to precision measurement, and industry knowledge going all the way back to 1939.
