The Wrap Reel is used for making leas for strength testing and count testing. The leas are either imperial leas having a swift perimeter of one and half yards with 80 turns or metric leas having swift perimeters of one meter with 100 turns.
The yarn is spread uniformly in a band of 20mm as the leas are formed. Upto 5 - 10 leas can be formed at one time, if the arms of the reel can be docked to facilitate the removal of the leas from the reel. The number of turns is indicated on a counter. In case of motor operated Wrap Reel, a fractional horse power motor controlled by a pre-set counter is provided to give the movement to the reel. An electromagnetic brake is provided to stop the movement of the reel almost instantaneously to reduce the chances of overtravel.
