    The document discusses carding, which is the process of separating tufts of fiber into individual fibers using rollers covered with metal pins. It describes how carding machines work to perform this separation through different roller actions and configurations. The key components of a carding machine are the cylinder, doffer, and stripper rollers, and their interactions help untangle and blend fibers into a sliver. Parameters like roller speed and pin settings determine the carding action and effectiveness of separation.

    3 Carding
    3.1 Definition and task
    Carding: is the action of reducing tufts of
    entangled fiber into a filmy web of
    individual fibers by working the tufts
    between closely spaced surfaces clothed
    with opposing sharp points.

    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    Task:
    Separating fiber bundles into individual
    Removing dusts and lints
    Intimately blending fibers
    Evening the fibers and sliver
    Formation of sliver

    3.2 Card Clothing


    The term 'card clothing' is used to
    describe the large number of pins
    covering the roller surfaces.
    flexible wire card clothing
    rigid meta1lic card clothing

    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    3.4 Carding actions


    Carding actions are determined by the
    following factors:
    The relative direction of movement of the
    roller surfaces; they may either move in
    the same direction, or in opposite
    directions.
    The direction of inclination of the card
    clothing pins, this may be points leading
    or backs leading.

    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    The relative surface speeds of the points


    of the card clothing.
    The distance between points on the
    adjacent rollers, this distance is called the
    setting.

    Basic features of a revolving flat card



    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    A revolving flat card involves:


    The chute feed system
    The taker-in zone
    Cylinder carding zone
    Cylinder-doffer transporting zone
    Sliver formation

    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    The tandem card: these are mainly for high-

    Fibers are subjected to working actions between the


    swift and each respective worker. Stripping actions
    take place between each worker/stripper and each
    stripper/swift interface.

    3.5 Recycling layer and transfer coefficient


    The fiber mass values per revolution of the
    cylinder:
    Q0, the operational layer, i.e., the fiber mass
    leaving the carding zone
    Q1, the mass transferred from cylinder to
    doffer
    Q2, the mass of the recycling layer
    K, the transfer coefficient, is equal to Q1/Q0

    DONGHUA UNIVERSITY

    The cylinder load:


    QL, the fiber mass on the taker-in
    QLC, the fiber mass fed to the cylinder
    QLVt
    with each cylinder revolution, QLC = V ,
    where Vt and Vc= the taker-in and c
    cylinder surface speeds, respectively
    Cylinder load, the mass going into the
    carding zone with each revolution of the
    cylinder is QLC+Q2
