Savio Twinsplicer

C.A.D. PC. Density Control (Optional)
Twinsplicer®: the unique selling proposition of Savio
Twinsplicer® is the unique, original and reliable solution to
process blends with elastomeric filament. Savio patented it in
1983, a mechanical splicer composed by discs coated with a
polymer.

The way the splice is prepared and made, ranks the
Twinsplicer® at the top among all other splicing devices. The
Twinsplicer® enhances its technological versatility with stretch
and spandex yarns (cotton / Lycra®), creating invisible joints
with perfect tightness and with the elastic filament core Italian Review
perfectly integrated into the joint. The result of this conception
is the Twinfil®, a yarn without knots, perfectly reconstructed at
the junction point; this quality comes from a series of
fundamental mechanisms that implement and monitor all
phases of operation without the use of compressed air and
water, recreating the original structure of the yarn.

Single Core & Dual Core Spun Yarn The Savio Twinsplicer® performs controlled mechanical splice
in each phase. The splice is not recognizable from the rest of
strength compared to traditional core spun density. The peculiar robustness and strength of the yarn and each splice is identical to the other ones. The

Advantages of Twin Splicer
The well-known Savio Twinsplicer® still represents • The yarn strength near then spliced area is equal or more

“perfect joint” on Core Yarns, mainly “single core” • Warping and weft performance will improve due to better

achieved with Dual Core Yarns. In this field, Savio can Moistair Splicer • With Core Spun Yarns (CSY), the core filament is
also offer the new splicing technology combining air incorporated in every joint hence the dyed fabric will not
have any patch mark on the spliced portion and even

with cotton fibers.
To allow the warping process, at its most efficient, • Completely mechanically operated hence no need of
winding machines produce big cylindrical packages, Clearing of Core Yarns compressed air and water. Overall air consumption is
usually 300mm in diameter and over, with high reduced by at least 50% compared to air splicing.
• The joint is virtually invisible.
• Reduced setting complexity
