WORKING PROCEDURE OF COMBING MACHINE:
This problem necessitates a cotton sheet with highest possible degree of uniformity as a feed to the combing machine. The feed material requires the best fibre arrangement (fibre parallel to the length of the feed material). If the fibre arrangement in the feed material is not proper, unnecessary loss of long staple fibres occurs too. Therefore a fibre sheet having high degree of uniformity with the best parallel arrangement of fibres is used as feed stock in the combing process.
A standard drawing process is used in this method of lap preparation. 20 – 24 number of carded slivers are fed together. After drafting a drawn sheet of sliver results.
Now this drawn sheet is wound on to the lap roller. Linear density of lap varies between 50 to 70 grams per metre.
