New Comb Top Service Coming Soon!
We have wanted to offer our customers comb top processing in addition to the carding we currently offer. This would allow us to produce worsted yarn, which is spun from parallel fibers that have been combed (in addition to carding) to remove shorter bits and spun with a short draw to keep the fibers in their parallel alignment. We have been searching in the US for over a year for a suitable comb top machine without success. We expanded our search and finally found the machine we wanted in Europe. The machine is being reconditioned prior to delivery and our goal is to have it installed and operational this winter so we can begin to offer comb topping starting in 2010. Our new comb top machine will allow us to process fine wools like Merino and Cormo because the comb top machine will remove the noils that naturally occur when carding these fine wools. It will also give us the ability to do a true worsted yarn, where before we could only offer semi worsted. To the best of our knowledge Loch’s Fiber Mill will be one of only two mills in the USA offering this service on a small scale customer run! We are now accepting fiber for processing on this new equipment. Please call or e-mail us for more details on this service. |
