TYPICAL PROBLEMS FACED WITH THETRADITIONAL CREEL LOADING SYSTEM
• TESTURIZING MACHINE FREQUENT STOP TIMES
• YARN QUALITY OFTEN DAMAGED
• PRODUCTIVITY CAN’T KEEP CONSTANT both in the short and in the long period of time
• CONSIDERABLE STRESS FOR THE OPERATOR AND FREQUENT CASES OF BACK INJURIES.
• DIFFICULT ORGANIZATION OF THE EMPTY TUBES AND OF THE CARDBOARD SEPARATORS

GOLDEN LADY
“Before using Scaglia Indeva’s Liftronic for loading the creels we were facing the problem of a high percentage of damaged coils due to the operator’s touch. Each coil damage caused machine stops and lower yarn quality and consequently less productivity and profit.
Since we started using the Liftronic the number of machine stops has significantlydecreased. Not less important is the better safeguard of the operator’s healththanks to greater ergonomics and strain reduction, which increased ourproductivity in the long period. Moreover, since Liftronic allows handling reels as they were weightless, now we can have also women do this job. (Mr. Cavalletto,Production Manager of Golden Lady S.p.A.)

The greatest advantage derived from the use of Liftruck Scaglia is a better safeguard of the operator’s health. Thanks to Liftruck Scaglia we can comply to the different European regulations about safety and health in working environments as far as handling of reels are concerned.
Since we use Liftruck Scaglia we have had much less machine stops due to damaged coils, and almost the 100% of the final product features high quality yarn. (Mr. Buffa, production Manager of Continental Fibre S.p.A.)

UNIFI
UNIFI Inc. uses exclusively Scaglia Indeva’s Liftrucks for loading creels: about 70 are the Scaglia Indeva’s Liftrucks used in all their plants worldwide.
“ Injury statistics at UNIFI Yadkinville NC plant help demonstrate how Scaglia lifting technology has improved worker well being. 100% of the credit for injury reduction goes to the use of load balancers” “Scaglia’s Liftronic electronic load balancers with mechanical grippers, that are permanently mounted on lifttrucks eliminate all the manual lifting and provide an increased quality factor. With manual handling there’s a greater likelihood of damage to the spools. Liftruck Scaglia is the only solution for handling reels up to 48 lbs. with no hazard to the operator’s health and to the yarn quality (Ing. Steve Brown of Unifi Inc.)
