For Technical Textiles with Advanced Yarns
A double-deck covering machine delivers precise S/Z twist, consistent Lycra® elongation boosting productivity, reducing waste, and ensuring high-quality yarn packages for technical textiles such as safety gloves, stretch denim, sportswear, and industrial fabrics
What is Double Covering Technology with Lycra?
MEERA’s Double Covering Machine produces high-performance covered yarns through a precision dual-layer wrapping system. It feeds a core yarn—Lycra®/Spandex, rubber, glass or carbon fiber, or other filaments—and applies two discrete covering layers to deliver stable stretch, dimensional consistency, and high yarn integrity for both fashion and technical end-uses.
Unlike multi-step lines that need separate machines and rewinding, the CM-500 integrates the process in one double-deck frame with 192 positions. Advanced traverse, tapering, and lip-motion controls build even packages that can go straight to hosiery/knitting. Digital touch-panel control of Lycra elongation, S/Z twist 150–4,500 TPM, spindle speeds up to 16,000 RPM, and programmable RPM/TPM/MPM combine for high output with repeatable quality and lower handling waste.
Typical applications span fashion & hosiery—socks, stockings, leggings, stretch denim, sportswear; technical textiles—safety and cut-resistant gloves, elastic medical bandages, compression wear, industrial elastic fabrics; decorative/fancy—elastic tapes, trims, embroidery effects; and specialty reinforcement—glass- or carbon-covered yarns for composites and engineered fabrics.
Precision Lycra Elongation Control
Our patented elongation control technology manages Lycra tension through digital touch panels, ensuring precise stretch characteristics across all production runs. The system automatically adjusts tension parameters based on material type and denier specifications, eliminating manual guesswork and reducing quality variations.
Integrated Dual Covering Architecture
The innovative four-section design processes core yarn feeding, first twist application, second twist covering, and final takeup sequentially without intermediate handling. This integrated approach eliminates multiple machine setups, reduces material handling costs, and ensures consistent covering tension throughout the entire process.
Intelligent Yarn Break Protection
Triple sensor cutters monitor yarn integrity at core, first twist, and second twist positions simultaneously. When any breakage occurs, the system instantly cuts all related yarns at that position, preventing defective product formation and maintaining overall production quality standards.

Revolutionary Process Integration
Eliminates traditional two-stage production bottlenecks by combining ply and cable twisting in one continuous operation. Reduces material handling by 100%, eliminates intermediate package storage requirements, and cuts production lead times by up to 50% while maintaining superior yarn quality characteristics.
Superior Return on Investment
Reduced energy consumption, eliminated intermediate processing stages, lower labor requirements, and decreased material waste combine to deliver rapid payback periods. Modular design ensures easy expansion capabilities as production requirements grow.
Unmatched Quality Consistency
Precision-engineered twist insertion mechanisms maintain uniform yarn characteristics across entire production runs. Anti-balloon ring technology eliminates speed limitations while advanced tension control systems prevent quality variations common in traditional multi-stage processes.
Energy Efficiency Leadership
Individual motorized spindle technology reduces energy consumption by 40% compared to conventional group-drive systems. Variable frequency controls optimize power usage for each yarn type and production speed, while intelligent load management prevents energy waste during idle or setup periods.
Operational Excellence
Single-operator management reduces labor costs while modular design enables rapid setup changes and simplified maintenance procedures. Comprehensive yarn breakage detection with automatic spindle shutdown minimizes material waste and downtime incidents.
Capable of producing yarn configurations from 150/3 to 1890/3 across multiple material types. S/Z and hybrid yarn production capabilities enable manufacturers to serve diverse market requirements from a single machine platform.
