Description Overview Machine is currently configured with Gillette-style blades and take up on cones. Depending on yarn characteristics, the unit can be easily converted to use rotary blades and take up on spindles or spools. Technical Advisory for Tinsel Chenille Production Tinsel is a metallic-coated decorative fiber that is significantly more abrasive than standard fibers. For this specific application, upgrading the cutting system is strongly recommended. The best configuration for this material is the installation of a new rotary blade system with diamond-coated rotary blades (diamond discs). Benefits of Diamond Disc Upgrade Superior durability. High resistance to the abrasive nature of metallic components. Precision cutting and a cleaner finish on the chenille pile without fraying the Tinsel inserts.
