Item 001: Mascott Plus 25-30 crosslapper, leader in abrasive felts but suitable for all fibers.
In the production chain of nonwoven fabric, the folder collects the carded web and layers it onto a dedicated conveyor.
The web is fed into the folder by an extension of the lower feed belt, directly feeding the two main carriages.
Carriages with alternating transverse motion layer the web onto a conveyor moving perpendicularly to the machine axis.
Conveyor belts are independent and individually adjustable.
The supporting structure is composed of two modular side panels made from high-quality steel plates, laser-cut, welded, sandblasted, numerically controlled, and painted.
The feed belt is an extension of the transport belt, designed to collect the carded web without drawing; during carding maintenance, this belt retracts into the folder structure.
The material’s output belt is contained within the machine’s envelope.
The feed belt must be mounted at the carding machine’s output side, inclined appropriately to the height of the carding machine’s web stripping comb.
If two stripping combs are present, the folder can be equipped upon request with two optional feed belts, independently adjustable.
The lower conveyor transports the web into the recovery carriage, which temporarily stores the material based on the distributor carriage’s movement direction, before releasing it onto the discharge belt.
The folder does not use distributor rollers, which can damage the web and create air turbulence during deposition.
Thanks to its special belt arrangement, it has achieved a single-return textile circuit, using the deposition belts as folding cylinders.
The output belt’s height must be adjusted to achieve the correct pressure between the fold and the deposition belts; this height adjustment is controlled by two electric actuators, each performed individually through dedicated selectors based on the finished product.
The alternating motion of the carriages is achieved through a system fully decoupled from each side panel and each carriage, driven by planetary reducers coupled to brushless motors that act directly on the pulleys, driving the carriages’ transmission belts.
The deposition belts are driven by gearmotors, directly flanged to one or more control cylinders; another gearmotor drives the discharge belt.
The deposition belt tension is controlled pneumatically, while the discharge belt tension is adjusted mechanically.
The alignment of the deposition belts is controlled by proportional pneumatic regulation.
Specifications
Lifting of packages requires a lifting beam and straps or chains with a capacity of 5,000 kg.
The beam hooks must be positioned on the eyebolts marked by the manufacturer.
The welded steel structure does not require ground anchoring and must be placed on a flat surface capable of bearing a load of 1,500 kg per support point.
The machine’s frame consists of two lateral sides, which contain most of the mechanical parts and the electrical components on the machine.
The sides should be positioned at a distance equal to the length of the connecting crossbars, with a tolerance of 20 mm.
The electrical panel must not be located more than 30 meters from the machine.
