Comber Bottom Roller
Bottom rollers for the comber roller arrangement. Identify the comber model, exact roller position and original roller geometry.
Application
Comber roller enquiries require the reference for the installed combing machine and the particular roller position. A general spinning-roller description does not identify a comber part. Working zones, journal spacing and end connections should be taken from the original comber roller drawing or a measured sample.
Reference specifications

- List each different roller reference separately in a set enquiry.
- Include both ends and the working section when photographing a sample.
A comber works the shortest, finest fibres, so its bottom rollers have to run truer than anywhere else on the line — any eccentricity lands straight in the combed sliver. As flutes wear, roller eccentricity rises and comber sliver U% deteriorates — and comber rollers repay scheduled regrinding and replacement faster than any other drafting position. That is why this page stresses pattern confirmation: there is no specific model mapping for comber machines, so every enquiry needs the comber make and model with the roller dimensions, and a near-size substitute seats badly and runs hot. Note down the complete comber make and model and the roller dimensions, or send the old roller itself; either reference lets Vindex supply the exact pattern for your comber.
Comber Bottom Roller Selection
Begin with the comber nameplate and the original roller part reference. Show the location of the roller on the machine, then supply a drawing with the working section, journals and end details. For several combers, group quantities only when the original roller references are the same. Where a sample has worn surfaces, distinguish its measured condition from the required replacement drawing dimensions.
Machine Makes & Model References
Use these machine-family references to identify your enquiry. Include the installed roller drawing and position for selection.
| Machine Make / Type | Model References |

Comber Bottom Roller — Frequently Asked Questions
What is needed to identify a comber bottom roller?
Provide the comber make and model, roller location and original part reference or drawing. Include working dimensions, journals and end connections.
Are comber rollers interchangeable with ring-frame rollers?
They are separate selections. Use the installed comber roller drawing rather than a general ring-frame roller reference.
Can I enquire using an old comber roller sample?
Yes. Identify the machine and location, show the sample dimensions and note visible wear. The replacement geometry needs to be defined before manufacture.
What should a comber roller set enquiry contain?
List each roller reference, its machine location, drawing or sample reference, and the required quantity.
