The Switzerland based manufacturer of clothings for flat cards and roller cards Graf will present its wide portfolio of solutions at ITMA Asia, in Shanghai, next month. As a complete system provider, Graf offers a comprehensive package from the product and technical advice through to service and service equipment.

“Graf’s new products and product systems always have one goal: to strengthen the customers’ position in their markets. Graf will show its wide portfolio of solutions for the spinning and fibre preparation process,” the company reports.

The new top combs FIXPRO C35 and C40 will be presented for the first time at an international trade fair. With 35 or 40 teeth respectively, nep values can be improved by up to 30%.

Ri-Q-Comb flex, the innovative circular comb series with adjustable height for up to 20% lower imperfections, will also be one of the highlights.

The EasyTop System of flat clothings stands for optimal settings of the carding gap and reduces the loss in good fibre, according to the manufacturer. In addition, the handling of flat clothing replacement is much easier and can be done without special equipment.

The product line of flexible flat clothings, known by the brand names resist-O-top or InLine-X-Top, stand for better quality in combination with higher lifetime compared to competitor-products in the short to medium staple range, the company says. These will also be discussed in Shanghai.

Besides the applications on display, Graf provides a wide range of solutions in the carding-, combing- and nonwoven-processes. Based in Rapperswil, Switzerland, the company is a subsidiary of the Rieter Group. Manufacturing of flexible flat clothings, metallic clothings for flat- and roller cards, know-how in metallurgy and in the precise processing of steel are core competencies of the company.
