T 636 BD Rotor Complete
T Groove rotor with BD boronized coating for fine cotton, viscose, modal, blends on Autocoro 480 / ACO 8 / Autocoro 11 series. Full dynamic balancing. In-house manufacturing with custom groove profiles available.
T 636 BD — Complete Specifications
All measurements in millimetres. Each rotor undergoes 100% dynamic balance testing before shipment.
Why T Groove for This Application
The T Groove profile is engineered for fine cotton, viscose, modal, blends.
T Groove — Precision Fibre Control for Target Yarn
The T Groove geometry creates a controlled deposition zone inside the rotor, ensuring fine cotton, viscose, modal, blends are uniformly distributed and twisted. This translates to higher yarn evenness (lower CV%) and fewer thin/thick places compared to generic groove profiles.
Superior Fibre Opening
The G groove’s wider entry angle ensures complete fibre separation before twist insertion, reducing neps and improving yarn appearance at Ne 6–30.
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 by 15–25% compared to non-optimized groove designs at equivalent speeds.
Self-Cleaning Geometry
The groove’s parabolic cross-section prevents micro-dust accumulation — a common root cause of moiré and periodic faults in continuous long-run production.
BD Boronized vs. DN Diamond Coating
Choose the right coating for your production environment. Both available from our in-house treatment line.
Thermochemical diffusion process forms a hard boride layer (FeB/Fe₂B) on the substrate. Excellent wear resistance at a competitive price. Ideal for standard cotton and cotton-blend production where cost-per-kg is a priority.
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.
