French Worsted Drawing, Part 2
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A single page from Leon Faux's series on French worsted spinning, describing the Gruen intersecting gill-box used in worsted drawing. It covers the fallers, pin rows and screw pitch for merino wool, the leather apron and drawing roll arrangement, and the independent drives. It gives formulas for draft and roll and screw speeds, with Table XXIV listing gear combinations and resulting drafts from about 3.4 to 13.4. Two schematic figures (Figs. 111 and 112) show the machine and its gearing.
