Drum carders are used to process fibers before using them for spinning or to produce an orderly arrangement of them to be used in non-woven projects. Fibers pass through the rollers, catching onto the metal pins attached to the rollers, aligning in a more parallel and orderly fashion. Most fibers can be carded using this method, but the most common include natural fibers like cotton and wool.Category
