Lines for cotton band preparation.
Our production includes a complete range of conveyor belts for the formation (pleating and preparation) as well as transportation of cotton wool band from cards to our packing machines. Our philosophy consists, when possible, to propose IN LINE installations so that the packing machine is directly connected with the carding line.
We can project and offer lines for the production of a suitable cotton tape ready to feed our machines for normal and precut zig-zag as well as automatic machines for the production of small rolls (25-50 gr) and big ones (500-1000 gr).
The length and dimension of the line as the consequent number of involved cards is calculated according to the typology and quantity of finished product to be produced.
Our lines can also produce semiworked material (jumbo rolls) to be used for the OFF LINE feeding as for the production of demake up pads.
As concerns this typology of production, we developed a range of suitable cross-lappers to produce a cotton tape with crossed fibers. The material obtained has more regularity in fibers positioning both in MD (machine direction) and CD (cross direction) granting a better strength in all directions stretching.
Besides, this system targets the condensing of fibers in order to increase the weight for sqm of the cotton tape when necessary.

Cross-lapper series suitable for the production of crossed-fibers cotton band.
Our cross-lapper type “CFX” are suitable to cross fibers coming from flat cards having working width between 1 and 1,5 mt depending on the installation.
The cross-lapper is positioned at the exit of the middle card in a line of three flat cards or more and prepares the fibers by pleating and stratifying them with angle of 90 degree or less respect the other fibers.
The cotton wool webs (two or more) are longitudinally pleated in order to obtain a “sandwich” with crossed fibers inside and parallel fibers (longitudinal) outside.
This system enables to produce a regular cotton tape with a uniform distribution of the fibers on the all width.

CF1 Cross-lapper

Cross-lapper suitable to receive the cotton web from a card working at about 1 mt width. It can pleat and stratify the cotton web up to a max of 300 mm. 
It is advised for small/medium installation and it can be interfaced with used cards or with brand new ones having high production.

CF15 Cross-lapper
It is similar to previous model but it can receive the cotton web from a card working at about 1,5 mt width. It can pleat and stratify the cotton web up to a max of 300 mm.

CF15-S Cross-lapper
It is the biggest cross-lapper of the group CFX and  it can receive the cotton web from a card working at about 1,5 mt width. It can pleat and stratify the cotton web up to a max of 700 mm.
It is advised for big  installation and it can be interfaced only with cards 1,5 mt wide  having high production.
