Sliver obtained from the carding stage is refined further during combing. In this stage, short fibres, which are also known as comber noils, are removed – along with neps, impurities and other sliver inconsistencies, to ensure the production of cleaner, stronger, better yarns. Custom combing cans are essential to maintain the efficiency of this process.

Objectives Of The Combing Stage

Removal of short fibers (predetermined quantity).
Removal of remaining impurities.
Removal of neps and slubs.
Straightening and parallelisation of the long fibers.
Formation of slivers with maximum evenness
Staple length improvement & raw material fineness maintenance through elimination of short fibres.
Use Of Comber Cans
Specialised comber cans from Jumac ensure the production of clean, fine count yarns by improving the uniformity of fibre length, reducing hairiness and neps percentage, and minimising sliver wastage. Through careful material handling, yarn strength is also boosted.

Our comber cans are used to ensure:

Productivity & ROI

maximisation through
uniform material handling

Box-type springs are available for cans with less than 24 inches diameter. For larger cans, pantograph springs are used. Jumac supplies spring to use for various fibers, starting from 100% cotton (carded & combed) to various blended fibers spinning plants.

Compatibility with all OEMs

Combing Cans manufactured by Jumac come with full compatibility with all the leading combing machinery OEM brands and models. Irrespective of what the machine setup at your mill might be, we have you covered.

Combing, a key stage in overall textile spinning, follows the blow room and the carding stages. The draw framing and roving stages take place after combing.
Apart from minimising the nep percentage and increasing yarn lustre, the combing stage also eliminates short fibres that are not suitable for spinning. Hairiness levels are lowered too, to optimise yarn quality & evenness.
With the help of ergonomically designed comber cans, the volume of sliver pieciengs and neps can be minimised. The spinning cans help in bolstering yarn strength and smoothness too.
Sliver wastage is a common problem that mills face at the combing stage in particular. Presence of neps and other sliver inconsistencies can also be a factor. With expert material handling through the use of high-quality combing cans, these problems can be done away with.
If tilting happens, the can will wobble while running in the coiler. This causes coil damages and sliver entanglements, and can also increase the U% and CVm of the sliver
With improper spring load, the sliver breakages at the creel zone of finisher draw frame increases, as the fiber-to-fiber cohesion is less in combed sliver. This leads to efficiency losses, and hence, affects the performance of the machine.
Made with virgin HDPE sheets and fitted with quality-assured standard accessories, the combing cans from Jumac add greater reliability and efficiency to the combing process. The original sliver parameters are maintained, there are minimal deflections, and the quality of output is maximised.
