Description
Method for operating a carding machine, carding machine and spinning preparation device Technical Field The invention relates to a method for operating a carding machine, a carding machine and a spinning preparation device. Background The number of agglomerates in the sliver of the spinning preparation plant is a decisive quality criterion in the manufacture of the yarn. Agglomeration is understood to be the accumulation of knotted fibers produced during cotton harvesting, ginning processes and cotton mechanical processing. Here, there is a distinction between the agglomeration of the shell particles and the agglomeration of the fibers. The shell particle agglomeration occurs when a piece of seed coat is attached to the fiber. The knots result from the accumulation of short fibers which shrink into knots or densities in the draw frame or roving frame after the carding process. During the subsequent spinning process, the agglomeration causes uneven color distribution in the yarn, which is undesirable. In addition, the knotting of the fibers also results in a reduced quality yarn, where the various interference sites must be removed. Hereinafter, the concept of agglomeration is an overview of the agglomeration of the shell particles, the accumulation of short fibers and the knotting of the fibers. It is known from the prior art to change the settings of the carding machine in such a way that the number of agglomerations is minimized. However, these settings also vary depending on the raw materials, so that the operator must be quite experienced to achieve optimal results. EP 0409772A1 discloses a method for determining the number of agglomerations at the outlet of a carding machine, wherein the fibre stack is measured simultaneously. If the measured value deviates from the preset nominal value, an attempt is first made to improve the corresponding value by resetting the fine cotton cleaner. If this is unsuccessful, the mixing ratio needs to be changed, which needs to be done by handling the bale breaker and finally also influences the bale store. In this method, the number of clusters and the individual parameters of the fibre stack are measured and a new card setting is assigned to the number of clusters or the individual parameters of the fibre stack individually. By means of a specific carding machine setting, the number of agglomerations can be reduced on the one hand, or the fibre stack can be changed by means of another carding machine setting on the other hand. It may happen here that by changing the adjustment parameters, such as the setting of the carding machine (carding speed, carding gap), the number of knots is significantly reduced, but at the same time a significant negative change of the fibre stack takes place, and vice versa. Furthermore, in the known method it has been found that the improvement of the two individual measured parameters (i.e. the reduction of the number of lumps and the improvement of the fibre pile) cannot be achieved on the card itself, but rather the mixing ratio is changed. DE 19651893B4 specifies that the measured value of the number of agglomerates and the measured value of the fiber length or the fiber shortening are correlated with one another, so that, unlike the known methods, a reduction of the number of agglomerates as much as possible and at the same time as little fiber damage (fiber shortening) as possible is achieved. The measured values of the number of clusters and the length of the fibers are combined and used to regulate the intervention. This allows an optimization to be achieved in a particularly advantageous manner. The disadvantage is that part of the fibers must be manually removed from the carded sliver, which makes the process cumbersome. Before analyzing this part and changing the card settings, a large amount of fibrous material is produced, which may be of poor quality. Disclosure of Invention The object of the invention is to improve a method for operating a carding machine or a carding machine in such a way that an operator obtains, from the starting material, an optimal setting of the carding machine with which an operating method with minimal agglomeration and/or energy saving is possible. The term "agglomerate" here is a general term of the agglomeration of the shell particles, the accumulation of short fibers and the knotting of the fibers. The invention relates to a method for operating a carding machine, wherein a fibre bundle between a rotating cylinder with clothing and a stationary or surrounding carding element is loosened into individual fibres, oriented and cleaned. The fibre layer produced here is transferred from the cylinder to the doffer and subsequently becomes a fibre sliver. The invention includes the technical teaching that the raw material and the throughput are fed by an operator into a carding machine control with an operating unit, and that the carding machine control determines a reference tin Lin Zhuaisu.
