CARD FEEDER HAVING A FEED TABLE PROVIDED WITH A CARDING ELEMENT

摘要

A carding machine includes a feed roll, a feed table cooperating with the feed roll and defining a nip therewith; and a licker-in arranged for plucking exiting fiber material from the nip. The feed table has an end face which is oriented toward the licker-in and which carries a carding element having carding points projecting toward the licker-in. The carding points are formed by surface roughening or by the provision of a granular coating.
