Yarn
Tension
Generators
Tension in the yarn is measured using of the tension devices, the operator sets the tension in the
yarn to the required level by using means that are known as tension generators or compensators
or simply tensioning devices.
Classification of tension generators under four different categories.
1. Spring type,
2. Ball type,
3. Disc type,
4. Gate
And roller type tensioners fall under these categories.
1. Additive type
2. Multiplicative type
3. Additive cum multiplicative type
4. Self compensating type
10. With high output tension, the upper arm moves closer to the lower arm, thereby adding
less tension.
11. The ball-tension device also changes the applied tension, to some degree when the output
tension changes.
12. Higher yarn tension lifts the ball higher, for less wrapping, or reduces the pinching force
between the ball and the guide.
13. In general, these devices are simple and low cost.
14. Their major drawbacks include scuffing of the yarn, tension variations depending on the
friction coefficient, and tension spikes with irregular yarns and knots.
15. (In the general formula given above, To and Ti are the output and input tensions
respectively, , W, and are the coefficient of friction between surfaces, force or pressure
applied on the yarn and the angle of wrap over the surface respectively).
16. (In the general formulae given above, To and Ti are the output and input tensions
respectively, , W, and are the coefficient of friction between surfaces, force or pressure
applied on the yarn and the angle of wrap over the surface respectively).
