ISF Type Weft Yarn Feeder

For Weft Insertion, weft feeding, fill yarn insertion of flat-type material such as carbon fiber, prepreg tape, tape yarn, etc.
Yarn is stored in a u-shape by suction air to avoid twisting.
Stored yarn length is maintained by positioning sensor.
Package drive motor is coordinated with loom speed via controller.
Utilizes high accuracy laser beam fiber sensor with digital fiber amplifier for reliable performance.

FK-2 Single Tow Spreading Machine

The single tow spreading machine can spread a single tow of carbon fiber (or other material). Its spreading capabilities are 4-5 time the width of the original tow. The spreading accuracy is approx. +/-10%, with spreading line speed of 20m/min. The spreading unit utilizes air flow to spread and control the width, so it is very gentle to the fiber.

Some benefits of spread tow are as follows:

- High impregnability, tow can be processed with thermoplastic resin and also

  thermosetting resin.

- The fiber-volume content is increased up to 60-80%, thus the composite

  material will be lightweight, yet very strong.

- Fabrics made from the spread tow has a low fiber areal weight.

  (Spread 12K fabric weighs less than 1K original tow fabric)

FMK-2 Multi Tow Spreading Machine

The multi tow spreading machine utilizes the same technology of the single tow spreader. It can be configured to spread a maximum of 50 ends simultaneously.

The multi tow spreading machine will increase productivity, satisfying larger demands of spread carbon fiber.

FS-2 Spread Tow Weaving Machine

This is a computer controlled weaving machine to weave spread tow. The weft can be supplied by a online spreading unit.

Weaving speeds are typically 8 picks per minute, and max cloth width is 1000mm.

The standard unit will produce plain weaves. A unit with programmable weaving patterns is also available.

UT-1000 Carbon Fiber Twister

According to the demands for applying a certain twist on delicate high performance fibers such as carbon fibers, Ceramic Fibers, Fiber Glass, etc., Kamitsu has developed a high speed unrolling twisting machine that does not cause damage to the fibers.
The package is rotated in the cage and fiber is unrolled with uniform and constant twists.
Unwinding twists are eliminated during unwinding.
The number of twists can be obtained by coordinating the unrolling speed with the cage RPM (Max. 1,000 RPM). A machine with multi-built units can also be used as a doubling/twisting machine.
The Kamitsu UT Twist and Detwist machine is for use with delicate fiber or yarn without damaging the yarn.

FR-1000 Feed Roller

The feed-roller acts as a speed controller for any process. It has high accuracy speed control, and uses a double roller system to control the fiber speed.

It is useful for laboratory type lines, pilot lines, and also scalable for large scale production lines.

Shears for Carbon Fiber and Aramid Fibers

ARSUPER shears feature blades made of Superheis (S.H.S.S.), a very hard alloy specifically developed for the cutting of composite super-fiber which is too hard to cut with conventional cutlery. ARSUPER is the ultimate in cutlery.
