Abstract: A spinning device (1, 10) of a textile machine provided with a multi-layer coating, wherein the surfaces (4, 20) which are subjected to wear by contact with fiber material are coated with a hard material body-containing dispersion layer made of a nonferrous metal including hard material bodies comprised of ceramic particles (8), wherein the ceramic particles (8) have a rounded surface.

Abstract: A spinning rotor (1) with a spinning cup (2) has an interior surface coated with a nickel dispersion layer (6) of an essentially even layer thickness having a concentration of hard material grains (7) embedded therein which is clearly less at the surface of the fiber slide face (9) than in the rotor groove. The coating is produced by bathing the spinning cup in a nickel dispersion bath during the final stage of which the concentration of the hard material grains in the bath is reduced at least in the bathing area, while the spinning cup is moved in this bath and rotated around its longitudinal axis while maintaining the spinning cup in a spatial orientation relative to the bath wherein an imaginary plane passing through the rotor groove is at least approximately perpendicular to the surface of the nickel dispersion bath.

Abstract: A fiber or yarn contacted element of a textile machine, such as a rotor of an open-end spinning machine or the like, has, at the fiber or yarn coating surface, a body portion of steel, a boronized layer formed on the body portion, an alpha-iron layer formed on the boronized layer and a nickel coating layer. A process for producing a fiber or yarn contacted element of a textile machine includes boronizing a steel body portion to form a boronized surface thereon, heating the steel body portion in an atmosphere including nitrogen to methanol to produce an alpha-iron layer, quenching and heating the steel body portion and applying a nickel coating thereto.
