A textile mill in North India trialled TeraSpin Smart cradles on 1,200 spindles and saw significant improvements in yarn quality. They were convinced of the cradles' performance and replaced the cradles on approximately 26,000 additional spindles. With the Smart cradles, they achieved a 5% improvement in unevenness, 28% reduction in total imperfections, 37% reduction in micro imperfections, 23% reduction in winding cuts, and 37% reduction in total faults. The mill was extremely happy with the results.
