INCA
INCA = Interlacing Non Continuous Air
The INCA jet unit is a new and patented interlacing system for BCF yarns. It generates the tangle knots by a non-continuous air impulse. The jet inserts are fixed radial on a rotor unit in a tandem arrangement. The compressed air stream is put across the holes of the rotor unit to the jet inserts and generates alternately a pulsating air flow. This leads to an excellent interlacing performance.
Advantages compared to conventional systems:
- compared to conventional tandem systems air savings of more than 50% possible
- Regularity of the composed tangle knots
- Uniformity on strong as well as on weak interlaced knots
- compact design, integrated motor drive
- Long life time
- easy and quick exchange of nozzle inserts
