Voices from across the textiles industry are enthusiastic about the FBC’s setting accuracy. “Thanks to the FBC, moving flats can be adjusted at sensitivities that cannot be adjusted manually,” says one Turkish customer, for example. Trützschler Card Clothing Technologist Fatih Okuyucu adds: “Since we started sharing the results with our customers, they are demanding tuning with FBC. It now enables a more professional approach to carding machine operations and gives them deeper insights into the effects of fine-tuning.”

This positive market response shows that Trützschler has achieved a new technological advance in flat setting that brings many benefits.

Flexibility

The FBC offers the possibility to adjust the flexible bends on all Trützschler card generations to optimize the carding gap between the flat top and cylinder. Due to its flexible design, the FBC can be adjusted to the required machine width within seconds. As soon as the device has been adjusted to the relevant type of card, it is inserted into the flat circuit of the card and the preferred settings can be implemented.

Alternatively, the FBC app can be downloaded on any typical smartphone or tablet.In the app, all necessary steps are explained in detail – from placing the FBC on the card to adjusting the setting points. Measurement data is transmitted live on the device.
