Portable dynamic yarn tension measurement sensor will be developed with the support of our faculty.

Faculty Member Prof. Dr. Recep EREN's project titled “Development of a Portable Dynamic Yarn Tension Measurement Sensor” has succeeded in receiving support within the scope of 1001 Projects that allow applications to be made without waiting for the next period in the 1st Period of 2024.
Measurement of yarn tensions in textile yarn production, in preparation processes before weaving and knitting fabric production such as bobbin winding and warp preparation, in sewing machines and in the production of woven and knitted fabrics is a must to guarantee the desired level of product and process quality. In these processes, which operate at very high speeds, both tension control and measurement of tension differences between yarns are necessary to understand some quality problems and to verify the suitability of the settings. On the other hand, measurement of yarn tension variations in high-speed machines, especially in research studies, provides important contributions to the detailed study of the process. For this purpose, research centers, universities and textile manufacturing enterprises need portable yarn tension sensors that can measure at high response speeds. Although such yarn tension sensors are widely used by both industry and academic institutions in our country, they are not produced domestically and imported from abroad.
Within the scope of the project, portable dynamic yarn tension measurement sensors will be designed and manufactured domestically with all mechanical and electronic units. Since the project subject requires interdisciplinary work, the project team consists of the following people with textile, mechanical and electrical-electronic engineering education.
Prof. Dr. Recep EREN (Project manager: Textile engineer, Textile machinery expert)
Asist. Prof. Dr. Özge ÇELİK (Researcher: Textile Engineer, Mechanical Engineer)
Electrical and Electronics Engineer Bayazit DİRİM (Project consultant)
Scholar (Electrical and Electronics Engineer, PhD student)

We congratulate our faculty member and his team for their support and wish them success in their work.
