Uster Unveils CCU 2006 Clearer Control Unit, Uster Statistics

Uster Technologies AG, Switzerland, has released the CCU 2006 clearer control unit for its Uster® Quantum 2 clearers. The new unit replaces all earlier control units including the Quantum SG 99 and SG 2000 without the need for external adaptation.

According to Uster, the CCU 2006 integrates latest-generation hardware and software technology including a high-resolution 12.1-inch color touch screen, and can display and print Chinese characters on all winders. Stand-alone installations include a robust thermal printer that delivers printouts of improved resolution. Other interfaces including universal serial bus (USB) facilitate software upgrades, data export and diagnostics. Additional features include an easy-to-use menu structure, shortened menu navigation and improved graphics, among others.

Uster recently introduced a preliminary version of the Uster Statistics 2007 reference guide reporting quality data for cotton fibers, yarns, rovings and slivers produced worldwide. The new edition includes quality characteristics — including those for yarn on cones, Uster Classimat Statistics for foreign fiber and process statistics, among other data — not reported in the previous edition, published in 2001. The 2007 guide either will be available on a CD-ROM with printable files or will be accessible at the company’s website, www.uster.com, in early 2007. The online version will include interactive features, enabling users to set and compare individual values.
