Abstract: An automated fiber processing system for processing of fiber stock in a continuous, uninterrupted process from fiber bales to the formation of spun yarn. The system comprises fiber stock opening means and first air transport means for conveying fiber stock therefrom to feeder blending means for blending the fiber stock; opening and cleaning means for opening and cleaning of the fiber stock; hopper means for receiving the opened and cleaned fiber stock for providing a supply of opened and blended fiber stock; feeding means for transportation of fiber stock from the hopper means to a plurality of carding-type machines which are adapted so that the carded fiber stock will be doffed therefrom in loose fiber form; second air transport means for transporting the doffed fiber stock to a plurality of sliver-making apparatus for forming sliver from the carded fiber stock, wherein the plurality of fiber making apparatus are each a small carding device operatively associated with a corresponding yarn spinning position on a yarn spinning frame or a roving position on a roving frame linked with a ring spinning frame.

Abstract: A novel fiber drafting system disclosed according to which a textile fiber strand is passed through a plurality of pairs of drafting rollers wherein one of each pair of drafting rollers includes a circumferential groove for receiving the fiber strand and the other roller includes a circumferential rib for compressing the strand in the recessed groove to a cross-sectional shape substantially conforming to the groove. The plurality of pairs of rib and groove rollers are rotated such that each successive pair along the drafting pathway of the textile fiber strand has a greater circumferential speed than the preceeding pair of drafting rollers. In this fashion a textile fiber strand is compressed into a cross-section configuration which substantially equalizes the pressure on all fibers being drafted and thereby provides a more uniformly drafted strand.
