Automatic description (AI-Generated)

The FOR Gigant is a large industrial carding machine manufactured in 1976 in Italy, designed for high-capacity fiber processing with a working width of 250 cm. It is suitable for processing synthetic fibers and semi-worsted applications, handling fibers between 15 and 25 dtex with staple lengths ranging from 40 to 250 mm. Depending on the fiber type and machine settings, it can deliver production capacities of up to 1,000 kg/h. For semi-worsted yarns between 6 and 17 dtex, the machine provides a production output of 200 to 400 kg/h.

This robust carding machine features a sophisticated configuration including dual main roller groups, a large main cylinder, twin doffers, and a high-speed fly comb to ensure consistent quality and output. The feeding system is volumetric, with components such as shut feeders and hopper feeders connected via various ducts and tubes to facilitate fiber intake.

The machine is painted green and includes multiple large cylindrical rollers, some covered with fabric or felt material. Mechanical drive components such as gears, chains, and sprockets are visible and appear intact, though there is some dust accumulation. Protective mesh guards and ventilation ducting are installed, with multiple access doors and a tall ladder for maintenance and operation.

The structure includes metal frameworks and mounting brackets supporting the rollers and mechanical linkages. The paint shows signs of wear, chipping, and surface marks in several areas, consistent with use in an industrial environment. The machine is situated indoors in a spacious facility with high ceilings and natural as well as overhead lighting.

Seller's description

The FOR Gigant is a high-capacity carding machine built in 1976 in Italy, engineered specifically for processing synthetic fibers and semi-worsted applications. With a working width of 2,500 mm, it is capable of delivering up to 1,000 kg/h depending on fiber type and settings. It is ideal for both semi-worsted yarn production and nonwoven product lines.

This robust carding machine is designed for fibers between 15–25 dtex and staple lengths of 40–250 mm. When used for semi-worsted yarns (6–17 dtex), it can deliver 200–400 kg/h. It features a sophisticated configuration with dual main roller groups, a large main cylinder, twin doffers, and a high-speed fly comb to ensure consistent quality and output. Still in running condition, the machine represents a reliable and efficient solution for high-volume fiber processing.
