Friction f eed wheel *
Friction feed wheel * The friction rollers of the friction feed wheel (1) reduce the yarn tension.
Storage feed wheel MSF 3 *
Storage feed wheel MSF 3 * The feed wheel serves for intermediate storage of the thread. The cylindrical
coiling and the separately positioned thread layers offer a more even thread
tension when yarn is being drawn off than when drawing off the bobbin. Peaks
in tension are caught up and compensated by the feed wheel.
