Fehrer Unveils Carpet Star®
At the recently held American Textile Machinery Exhibition-International®, Austria-based
Fehrer AG presented its NL11/TWIN-SE Carpet Star®.The NL11/TWIN-SE Carpet Star is a structuring
needle-punching machine for the production of high-quality rib and velour products. The machine’s
two independently operating needle zones allow the creation of a new range of large repeat patterns
and needled carpets with borders on all sides. In addition, this technology also allows the
production of conventional patterns at high speeds.The Carpet Star is equipped with a precision
drive system, which facilitates high production speeds even with short repeats. The two needle
zones are adjusted to one another electronically according to the prescribed recipe. As a result,
maximum pattern design flexibility is guaranteed.
