Groove Engineering

Why T Groove for Fine Yarn

The T groove’s narrow profile is engineered for fine and medium-fine yarns in the Ne 16–40 range.

T Groove — Applicable Yarn Count Range

Optimized for fine counts. For coarse counts (Ne 3–16), consider the GT groove.

T Groove — Precision Fibre Control for Fine Yarn

The narrow T groove geometry creates a compact deposition zone inside the rotor, ensuring fibres are uniformly distributed and twisted even at fine counts. This translates to higher yarn evenness (lower CV%) and fewer thin/thick places — critical for fine count knitting and weaving applications.

Optimized for Ne 16–40

The T groove’s narrow geometry is calibrated for fine and medium-fine yarns, delivering stable fibre separation and consistent yarn formation across the full Ne 16–40 range.

Consistent Yarn Evenness

Stable fibre deposition zone produces CV% values consistently below Uster 25% benchmarks, critical for downstream knitting and weaving quality.

Reduced End Breakage

Optimized twist propagation path reduces spinning tension peaks, lowering end-break rates and improving machine efficiency on SE11/SE12 platforms.

Self-Cleaning Geometry

The groove’s parabolic cross-section prevents micro-dust accumulation — a root cause of periodic faults and moiré patterns in long-run production.

Surface Engineering

BD Boronized vs. DN Diamond Coating

Both coatings available from our in-house treatment line. Choose based on fibre type and speed requirements.

BD — Boronized
Current model · Standard coating
HV 1600–2000
Cost-effective Standard cotton Up to 100K rpm

Thermochemical diffusion process forms a hard boride layer (FeB/Fe₂B) on the substrate. Excellent wear resistance at a competitive price. Ideal for standard cotton production where cost-per-kg is the priority.

DN — Diamond
Premium upgrade · Available on request
HV 1000-1200
3–5× longer life Abrasive fibres 110K+ rpm

CVD diamond-like carbon coating delivering extreme surface hardness. Recommended for abrasive fibres (recycled cotton, coloured cotton, viscose blends), high-speed production, and mills targeting maximum uptime and longest service intervals.

Compatibility

Which Schlafhorst Machines Use T 536 BD?

Bearing Series 5 rotors fit SE11 and SE12 generation Autocoro machines. Other generations require different spec numbers.

✓ Autocoro 360 — SE11
SE11 generation · Bearing Series 5 · Enhanced rotor speed and automation. Widely operated in South Asia, Turkey, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
✓ ACO 480 — SE12
SE12 generation · Up to 480 positions · Bearing Series 5 · Same bearing platform as SE11 with advanced individual-spindle drive control.
✗ Autocoro 240 / 288 (SE7/SE8)
Uses Bearing Series 1 — not compatible. Use 1xx spec numbers (e.g. G 133 BD, T 136 BD) for these machines.
✗ Autocoro 312 / 360 (SE9/SE10)
Uses Bearing Series 3 — not compatible. Use 3xx spec numbers (e.g. G 331 BD, G 333 BD) for these machines.
