Ergonomics and practical interventions:
a synonym of savings and higher efficiency
A modern machine is expected to offer easy handling and
intervention to satisfy the practical needs of the user.
The Alpha PGA amply meets these requirements because
i t has been designed to make the weaver and the
adjuster's life easier: the easier it is to work, the quicker the
intervention time with considerable financial advantage.
Special attention has also been dedicated to accessibility
in the insertion area: in fact, the space between the
reed, the weft selector, the leno devices and the temples
has been increased, thus making it easier for the loom
operator to intervene in this del icate area, as wel l as
extending the possibilities for adjusting these devices.
Optimised adjustments have proved all-important to meet
the high performance levels and global machine efficiency.
Small but substantial changes to the machine's set-up
often lead to a far lower broken thread rate and greater
machine adaptability to suit different weaving conditions.
A single type of highly sensitive backrest roller, yet offering
great solidity, lets one face the weaving of both light-weight
and heavy fabrics and those with a high cover factor.
The warp tension is read by a load cell placed so as not to
be affected by variations in the tension due to the beat-u
p
of the reed. The barrier photoelectric cells help improve
safety standards, while still ensuring particularly satisfactory
functioning for operators.
Many small details that, together, make the Alpha PGA an
extremely easy to manage and particularly friendly machine.
