OBJECT:

           

  To study the working principle of carding machine

APPARATUS:

               

   Carding machine

THEORY:

         

   There are four main objective of carding:

  •  fibre to fibre opening
  •  parallelization of fibre
  •  sliver formation
  •  removing trash,fibre fragments,very short fibre and neps

carding machine consist of following  parts :

lap roller, feed plate ,feed roller ,taker inn ,carding plate ,main cylinder ,stationary flats ,revolving flats ,brush roll ,doffing rollers ,stripping roller

, crushing roller, trumpet, calendring roller, coiler.

WORKING PRINCIPLE:

                 

 The main objective of taker inn is cleaning,for increasing cleaning intensity we can increase number of rollers but maximum we can use 3 rollers, there is also a grid bar arrangement. The profile of taker inn is coarse than profile of main cylinder and doffer.

In main carding zone there is a main cylinder whose speed and circumfernce is greater than taker inn. Above main cylinder there is a revolving flats arrangement.There is total 80 flats in which 30 are ...
