A combing cylinder for a combing machine having a combing segment with a wing-shaped profile. This segment is fastenend on the body of the cylinder. An air duct is arranged between the inside surface of the combing segment and the outer cylindrical surface of the cylinder body. Because of the cooperation between the wing-shaped profile of the combing segment and the air duct, the air flow produced by the rotation of the cylinder causes a suction effect which pulls the fibers towards the advancing comb. This suction assures early engagement of the fiber fringe to be combed by the teeth of the combing segment.
