All the advantages of plastic yarn cones

Why choosing plastic yarn cones can be the best choice for textile industry processing

Among the main components of the textile industry’s processes are yarn cones. The rock is placed around the cone, on which the yarn is laid. The particular shape of the cone allows the rock to be turned by remaining firm and stable, simply by running. It goes without saying that the perfect integration of the cone-rock system is essential to enable processing as fast and efficiently as possible.

That’s why the choice of the right cone is crucial for the processing of any textile company. In particular, when we talk about high quality companies, such as those that make products made in Italy (but not only). Such a high degree of craftsmanship requires the highest quality, tailor-made textile components and accessories.

Advanced textile spinning and dyeing solutions are a significant step forward in optimizing production processes. That’s why Beschi’s mission is to provide cutting-edge technologies which can meet the needs of textile companies while ensuring maximum environmental sustainability. Plastic yarn cones go in this direction.

What are yarn cones?

Yarn cones are fundamental elements, within the textile world, for the yarn storage system known as “rocks”. This is a very practical storage system, the most widely used in the industry. And cones play a crucial role. How? The rock is an industrial format of yarn storage that consists in rolling the wire around a cone-shaped core, made of cardboard or plastic, whose characteristic is the inclined arrangement of the wire allowing unrolling without moving the rock.

It is the most efficient method, compared to those traditionally used as coils, spools and balls; the yarn is in fact wrapped around the rock in a pattern that prevents tangling.

The rounding is the industrial process that gives shape to the rock: in this process the yarn is transferred from a support – usually tubes, or spools – to a rock that can be used more easily on industrial machinery, to allow the subsequent processing of the yarn. It is a simple process but, in any case, fundamental, technological and sophisticated.

What are the advantages of plastic yarn cones?

The first advantage is related to the use of cones for the creation of yarn rocks. Using the right size and material cones allows you to use the rods to store wires in an orderly manner. The specific cone shape of the cores, which have a wider base that shrinks as you go, prevents the rolling of the stones themselves, and thus allows to stack the yarns in stock.

The rounding is not only essential for the correct functioning of textile machinery: it also makes it easier to control the quality of the wire.
In addition to these advantages, given the very function of a high-quality textile cone and tailored to the rock and the processing required, there are several other advantages resulting from the choice of plastic cones for yarn winding:

  • resistance: due to the friction that is generated in the rock during the winding process, the tube coil and cone must have good wear resistance to ensure a long service life. Plastic is the most resistant material;
  • cost-effectiveness: plastic provides long-lasting and resistant cones at competitive prices;
  • lightness: they are lightweight but highly resistant;
  • customization: the plastic can be easily customized and allows to offer a wide range of cones that change in size and specifications: those of the plastic wire wound tubes may vary depending on the different looms or spinning machines. The specifications generally include diameter, length, taper. The colours allow to distinguish at a glance the different yarn rocks;
  • versatility: plastic textile cones are suitable for different types of yarn, ranging from natural yarns such as wool and cotton, to synthetic yarns such as nylon and polyester, up to mixed and elastic fabrics.

Why choose Beschi’s plastic cones for yarn winding

Beschi is a manufacturer of plastic products specifically designed for the textile market. The company offers high quality materials, designed to guarantee a final product that is durable over time and resistant to use, capable of supporting the most complex processes with different machines.
