• Yarn IPI quality at optimal constant level

This combined system from Graf circular comb and Rieter comber E90 delivers unparalleled performance and reliability, with optimized and consistent IPI values customers can rely on.

Benefits:

• Graf as no. 1 in combs + Rieter as no. 1 in combers = best system
• Needle finish ensures best and constant IPI values and fewer winding cuts
• Best IPI and yield with +8% combing area and 130° surface
• 50% longer lifetime of CUTTYSHARP alloy minimizes investment
• Highest production rates (600 nips/min) ensured by robust lightweight design

With the innovative needle finish system, better IPI (imperfection) values and fewer winding cuts are ensured over the lifetime of the equipment.

Benefits:

• Needle finish ensures best and constant IPI values and fewer winding cuts
• Optimal IPI and yield with 120° combing surface
• 50% longer lifetime of CUTTYSHARP alloy minimizes investment
• Lightweight design and precise counterweight deliver high production rates (max. 500 nips/min)
