The introduction of these machines was preceded by a careful study of what had already been done in Spinning Frame design.
Our Improved Ring Spinning Frames are made from entirely new patterns, and not only combine the best features previously brought out in such machines, but also many new ideas and improvements which have proved of great benefit to both manufacturers and spinners.
Although these frames were only introduced a few years ago, they are very extensively used, and the demand is steadily increasing. All parts are machined and most of them are made by specially designed tools.
We give below a description of the construction and chief points of advantage of these machines.
LOW FRAMING AND CONSTRUCTION—The Frames are built very low, are extra heavy in all their principal parts, and are designed and constructed so as to stand high speeds without vibration, thus preserving the spindles, ensuring light running and reducing the cost of repairs.
SPINDLE RAILS—These are of the box pattern, specially heavy, and designed to prevent springing, twisting and vibration.
LIFTING RODS—The Lifting Rods, as will be seen in the several illustrations, do not have any foot castings attached to them. They can therefore be easily taken out, cleaned and put back without the necessity of readjustment. These rods are accurately turned and finished by a special process to prevent sticking. The Wave Shaft Arms are designed so that the Ring Rails can be easily leveled by means of adjusting screws.
CREELS—The Creels are constructed with large diameter supporting rods so as to ensure rigidity, reduce vibration and prevent stretching the roving.
