GN8 intersecting drawing machine
Technical supportGN8 intersecting drawing machine

- New intersecting based on the latest design of the chain gill drive combined with the universal drafting head of GN series
- Designed to process wool or any kind of wool like fibres
- Particularly adapted to process delicate, fine and short fibres such as Cashmere, Silk or fibres with low cohesion.
- The GN8 drafting head consists in a double pinned field with fallers driven by double threated screws allowing a mechanical speed up to 2000 drops per minute
- The GN8 can be adapted with an electronic autoleveller RE type
- Feeding of gN8 can be either by balls or cans with or without detour rollers and delivering onto ball or cans
