Abstract
The invention provides spinning rings for textile spinning processes having an improved bearing surface formed of a coating of amorphous chromium that is typically applied by an electrodeposition process. The amorphous chromium coated spinning rings of the present invention impart a durable spinning ring that can be used in fine yarn, high speed spinning operations without the need to provide for a conventional break-in period.
Claims14
A textile spinning ring comprising a base material that forms a bearing surface for receiving a traveler, said bearing surface comprising a coating of amorphous chromium, wherein the textile spinning ring is capable of being implemented in textile production without preliminary treatment of the bearing surface and without a production break-in period.
