Eltex ETM Solo Viewer

Visaulize yarn tension values.

The ETM Solo viewer, together with the ETM Sensor, makes it possible to view and evaluate the tension of a yarn in a wide range of applications. Without such a device the yarn tension is often unknown but can have a big impact on the final product. For example, on a dyeing line where the tension is important for the final yarn colour, or a winder where the final bobbin quality depends on the thread tension. Having the correct yarn tension does not only result in a high quality product but can also bring production and material costs down.

The following parts are needed:

ETM Features:

• The ETM Solo Viewer shows the graphs for up to 16 ETM-Solo sensors at the same time.
• The graph of the sensors can also be selected in groups of four.
• When the graph is viewed for one sensor the digital value is presented as well.
• It is possible to zoom the graph and to scroll along the yarn tension axis.
• The sample time can be selected. The minimum sample time is depending on the performance of the computer, but is normally around 40 ms.
• The yarn tension values can be logged into a file which can be exported to Excel.
• At power up the software detects the number of sensors automatically.
