Opening Line Equipment

The opening line is where a nonwoven run actually begins. Compressed fiber bales come in dense and uneven, and this stage loosens them, blends different fiber types together, and meters the result into the rest of the process at a steady rate. Get it wrong and every downstream machine inherits the problem; get it right and the web that follows is far easier to keep uniform.

Scale Hopper

Scale Hopper

Precision weighing that locks in fiber blend ratios before opening.

Cylinder Opener

Cylinder Opener

A pin or wire cylinder that opens and blends compressed fiber tufts.

Super Blender

Super Blender

Two-stage opening and mixing for a genuinely uniform fiber blend.

Conveyor Feeder Opener

Conveyor Feeder Opener

Feeding, separating and opening rolled into one continuous machine.

Mixing Tank & Feeder

Mixing Tank & Feeder

Bulk fiber homogenizing with a steady, controlled feed downstream.

Control Hopper

Control Hopper

A compact blender and feeder for lines where floor space is tight.

Fine Opener

Fine Opener

Fine, gentle opening that readies fiber tufts for carding.

KSG builds the full opening line: conveyor feeder openers, fine openers, mixing tanks and feeders, scale hoppers, cylinder openers and blenders. You can lay out a line around weight accuracy, around thorough mixing, or a balance of both, and the machines are designed to hand fiber off cleanly from one stage to the next.
