The Electric Drum Carder sits on rubber buffers and because of its weight, it does not need to be bolted down. In case of overheating, the motor switches off automatically. In order to use the switch, you need to slide a safety plate over the rollers. If you then slide the plate back to remove the fleece from the roller, the switch is covered again.
The frame of the electric drum carder is made of waterproof glued birch plywood with a white HPL top layer. The carder is delivered fully assembled.
So that you can get started right away, we include:
- the manual,
- the carding booklet written by Deb Menz,
- doffer brush
- doffer pin
In carders, as a rule, the acceleration between the rollers is stated. For the Junior carder it is 4:1. However, more important for the effectiveness of the carder is the difference in surface speed between the large and the small roller. To calculate this, multiply the acceleration by the ratio of the diameters of the two rollers. For the Junior Carder, this speed ratio is 9:1.
