Study Notes
Nipper Movement
- The nipper with the batt moves concentrically to the circular comb to avoid unfavorable combing.
Comber Half Laps
- Primacomb 5015 has 5 sections, 28,475 total points and a diameter of 85mm
- Primacomb 4014 has 4 sections, 22,580 total points and a diameter of 80mm
- Primacomb 5014 has 4 sections, 22,580 total points and a diameter of 85mm
- Primacomb 5025 has 5 sections, 27,720 total points and a diameter of 85mm
- Primacomb 7015 has 4 sections, 25,070 total points and a diameter of 85mm
Top Comb
- The density of needles is defined as needles per centimeter
- Two types of top combs are commonly used: 26 needles/cm and 30 needles/cm
- Top combs available in the market are 23, 26, 28, 30, and 32 needles per centimeter
Operation of Combs
- The circular comb treats the forward portion and the top comb treats the trailing portion of the fiber fringe
- The top comb has a single row of needles
- The quality of combing for both portions is the same
- The self-cleaning effect of the circular comb removes less than 20% of the fibers in the nippers
- This low percentage of fibers is unable to take the impurities, which remain in the sheet
- The self-cleaning effect can be influenced by batt weight and the degree of fiber parallelization
- The self-cleaning effect is better for lower fiber parallelization and a more voluminous batt
- A thick sheet exerts a greater retaining power than a thin one
