Operating in over 60 countries, N. Schlumberger is renowned for its mastery of complete long staple fiber lines. Their extensive know-how ensures customers receive the most efficient solutions for quality and productivity.

Carding

The variousn. schlumberger cards are designed to process natural fibres like wool or mohair, as well as synthetic fibres, silk noil or flax tows.

Worsted card

  • Designed to process wool and other natural fibres such as mohair with two morels cylinders for the processing of scoured wool.

Semi-worsted card

  • Suited to the processing of both natural and synthetic fibres. The semi-worsted card can be incorporated into any semi-worsted process line for carpet or knitting yarns.

Flax card

  • This cardis tailored to the process of flax tow and bast fibres. It is provided with a bale opener, especially suited to the bast fibres. This card is only available in 2.5 m working width.

Feeder

  • The continuous flow volumetric feeder determines the uniform distribution of fibres. It is achieved by high precision machines which accurately monitor the fibre control.
  • To complement their high performance feed systems and particularly on small batches with short manufacturing cycles, the cards can be supplied on optional with an infeed auto leveller.

Converting

Stretch breaking converting

The S200 stretch breaker processes chemical filament tows into wool-like slivers for knitting and hosiery yarns. It handles acrylic, polyester, polypropylene, and viscose fibers.

Key features include:

  • Robust, reliable, and precise structure
  • Easy servicing and adjustments
  • Full safety coverage
  • Modular design with heating plates and suction systems
  • Crimping box and compact steaming system
  • Handles up to two tows with overload safety
  • Touch screen control panel
  • Speeds up to 400m/min

The FB20 model, ideal for technical fibers like flax and carbon, uses a short in-line breaking process with pre-stretching and three breaking heads

Defelting

D5GC40

The homogeneity and evenness of the sliver

The D5GC40 blender defelter, ideal for post-stretch breaking, features a pre-draft element with 4 drafting zones and a GC40 chain gill. It suits Tow To Toplines, blending, and defelting operations, particularly for fine fibers.

Key features include:

  • Handles 100% relaxed or High Bulk blends
  • Suitable for grey, dyed, spun-dyed, or tow-dyed slivers
  • High doubling up to 40 slivers
  • Input load up to 2 x 500 ktex
  • Efficient suction system
  • Optional spraying devices and draft auto leveller

Drafting

GC50

The mechatronic chain gill

The GC50 chain gill utilizes advanced mechatronic technology for easier use and maintenance, reducing mechanical settings and operator interventions.

Key features include:

  • Electronic control of nip distance and tensions for precision
  • Larger filter bags for improved cleaning and adjustable suction power
  • 15”control screen displaying real-time data and machine documentation
  • Fewer mechanical parts for reduced maintenance
  • Industry 4.0 readiness with comprehensive data collection

These innovations enhance reliability, precision, and textile quality during production.

Combing

ERA50

The new standard in wool cleanliness

The ERA50, an upgrade from the ERA40, incorporates mechatronic technology and is Industry 4.0 ready with complete data collection.

Key features include:

  • Electronic control of 9 axes for precise settings and improved textile quality
  • Optimized cleanliness with 4 comb speeds and larger filtering bags
  • 15” touch screen displaying real-time production data, documentation, and power consumption
  • Internet connectivity for remote diagnostics

These innovations ensure a cleaner, more efficient combing process, enhancing textile quality and reducing maintenance.

Finsiher

FMV50

The mechatronic vertical rubbing frame

The FMV50, an upgrade from the FMV40, incorporates mechatronic technology and is Industry 4.0 ready with full data collection and remote diagnostics.

Key features include:

  • Electronic monitoring for reduced mechanical settings and operator interventions
  • Models: FMV50S (300 mm tubes, up to 4.5 kg) and FMV50L (330 mm tubes, 5–6 kg)
  • Produces rubbed rovings (Nm 0.66 to 6) at speeds up to 275 m/min
  • Three interchangeable drafting systems (long and short with aprons)
  • Adjustable rubs from 2.5 to 10 rubs/m electronically, up to 1500 rubs/min

Additional innovations:

  • New suction system with dual filtering bags for easier cleaning and better durability
  • 15” touchscreen forreal-time data, machine documentation, and power consumption information

These features ensure high performance, flexibility, and efficiency in modern production lines.
