What is High-Twist, High-Speed TFO Technology?

Two-for-One (TFO) twisting inserts two twists per spindle revolution, enabling fine-denier filament yarns (≈30–300 denier) to reach high TPM at speed while keeping tension stable and package build uniform—ideal for soft-hand, low-GSM garment and weaving applications.

Applications: Apparel & fashion fabrics (soft-touch shirting, women’s wear, scarves), lightweight dress materials, sports/athleisure, fine upholstery & lining, and specialty threads in polyester/nylon/viscose—S or Z twist.

Key machine features (highlights):

  • Up to ~18,000 RPM spindles; model-dependent 200–3,500 TPM; yarn speed up to ~100 m/min.

  • Tangential belt drive, optimized high-speed spindle, anti-patterning with bi-conical traverse for dense, even packages.

  • Flexible take-up: aluminium cylinder or paper-tube; knotless packages up to ~2.0 kg.

  • Robust yarn path: rust-resistant parts, ceramic over-feed, cradle pressure control; electronic droppers.

MEERA’s manufacturing prowess (High-Speed TFO). MEERA builds its TFOs around in-house engineered, plasma-coated spindles and a precision gearbox designed for longevity and low energy loss. The lineup (e.g., 70A/70B/90L/90B/120L) covers varied deniers, speeds, and package formats, backed by configurable sections, easy external adjustments, and dependable service—delivering consistent twist quality at industrial scale.

Patented Plasma-Coated Spindle Technology

MEERA's proprietary in-house plasma coating process creates ultra-smooth spindle surfaces that dramatically reduce friction and heat generation. This advanced metallurgical treatment extends spindle life beyond 15 years while maintaining precision balance at maximum operating speeds, ensuring consistent twist quality and reducing replacement costs.

Intelligent Dual Take-up System

Revolutionary interchangeable take-up technology featuring both aluminum cylinders and paper tubes on the same machine. Aluminum cylinders provide flanged geometry for superior wet/dry heat setting, while paper tubes offer economic flexibility. Operators can switch systems without machine reconfiguration, optimizing package formation for specific downstream requirements.

Advanced Anti-Patterning Traverse Control

Sophisticated traverse mechanism with ceramic-toothed overfeed system eliminates pattern formation while ensuring uniform yarn distribution. The biconical design creates consistent package density from core to surface, preventing unwinding issues and yarn breaks during high-speed weaving operations, resulting in superior fabric quality.

Why High-Twist Processing on MEERA TFO Twisters?

Why High-Twist Processing on MEERA TFO Twisters?

Package Quality

Dual take-up (aluminium cylinders or paper tubes) with knotless packages up to ~2.0 kg; cradle pressure and ceramic-tooth overfeed give dense, uniform builds and clean unwinding. Optimized for heat-setting prep and minimal downstream waste in dyeing/knitting.

Energy Efficiency

Optimized high-speed, plasma-coated spindles and efficient gearbox/tangential drive reduce power while sustaining high TPM. Lower kW per kg thanks to reduced friction and vibration at high RPM.

Process Control

Electronic dropper sensors provide central break indication; anti-patterning with bi-conical traverse keeps package density consistent. Stable tension and precise TPM settings are maintained across the entire build.

Operational Flexibility

Handles 30–300 denier, S/Z twist, with quick external adjustments and interchangeable aluminium or paper-tube take-up. Fast changeovers support frequent style/denier switches without sacrificing quality.

High Performance

Spindles up to ~18,000 RPM with take-up to ~100 m/min deliver high productivity for fine-denier, high-twist jobs. Tight twist accuracy across ~200–3,500 TPM (model-dependent) suits soft-hand, low-GSM fabrics.

Proven Reliability
