Metallic wire for flat card
Metallic wire for flat card
The application for metallic card clothing onto spinning carding machines has no limits and is used in the production of low, medium and high quality yarns.
Since there are numerous solutions available for flat cotton cards we always ask our customers for the following information in order to accurately determine the type of card clothing to use:
- material to be processed;
- microns;
- type and staple length in mm of fibers;
- deniers.
And technical data concerning the machinery:
- type of machine and brand name;
- working width;
- diameter of rollers;
- production in kilos per hour;
- speed of cylinder/doffer;
- number of flat tops.
Once supplied with this information we can suggest the best combination of metallic wire for any type of fibers to be processed, thanks to the research and experience we have acquired in carding over the years.
