In a device for carding, cleaning or opening fibre tufts. An improvement comprises two or more rotating working members or organs (1, 2, 3) which have intersecting planes of rotation and they are arranged to make the fibres fed in at one end move in addition in an axial direction and pass through the lines of close proximity repeatedly in several changed planes of rotation, so that the fibres are worked by a high proportion of the working points before being doffed at the other end or "out" feed. In relation to the dimensions of the working members or organs, the fibres can dwell on the average a longer time in the device so modified and come into contact with a greater proportion of the wire points or pins in the system. This provides for and makes adequate processing of the fibres possible particularly with smaller units in comparison with conventional systems.
