If tension irregularities are found at the exit of the weft-feeder due to different concentrations of additives ie spin finish, pigments, dyes, etc. (which can vary between one yarn package and another, or even between various layers of the same yarn package) - in these cases the use of a solid or fluid paraffin device is recommended.

Liquid paraffin applicator groups are particularly suited to highspeed looms.

The X2/X3 powered weft lubricator is an automatically controlled oil dispensing device for use on all X2/X3 series feeders. The Oiler is integrated into the systems communications network and is therefore fully synchronized with the feeder’s insertion speed.

The dosage rate of the oiler can be electronically adjusted allowing the application of lubricant to be exactly adapted to the required volume. The unit is extremely simple to install and can be used together with all other input and output components in the X2/X3 system.

The feed cylinder is self-cleaning and it is powered by a maintenance free synchronous motor.

The powered lubricator has many production advantages, such as; even weft lubrication, reduced lubricant waste, reduced wet spots, improved fabric quality, reduced weft breakage - enabling increased weaving efficiency and speed.
