Other reported benefits include improved yarn quality thanks to enhanced leveling dynamics,
new suction drafting system and improved scanning accuracy; 10-percent-lower energy consumption
compared with earlier models; and an AUTOhelp integrated spectrogram fault diagnosis system to
facilitate troubleshooting. The new draw frames also feature a CLEANcoil sliver coiler that allows
coiling of man-made fiber slivers without cleaning at unprecedented running times, and a special
nonmechanical solution for cutting sliver.

The RSB-D 40 also features AUTOset self-adjusting leveling, and the SB-D 40 offers additional
suction in the feeding section. Simple menu guidance, buttons for direct access and on-line help
are included in the graphic display; and an electronic instruction manual that includes videos
facilitates operation and maintenance of the new draw frames, according to Rieter.
