Carding Plates / Pin Plates / Needle Plates / Fine Carding / Rough Carding are an important component of the tobacco processing line in the Molins Mark8 cigarette machine. These plates are typically made of metal and are designed with a series of pins or teeth on their surface that help to separate and align the tobacco laminae (leaves) and stems.
The pins on the surface of the carding plates are usually arranged in a specific pattern or configuration to achieve a desired level of carding. The pins can be either straight or curved, and can vary in size and spacing depending on the specific requirements of the tobacco processing line.
In operation, the carding plates are mounted onto a series of rotating drums or cylinders that are arranged in either a curved or straight configuration. As the tobacco passes through the thin and rough carding sections of the machine, the rotating drums or cylinders with the carding plates on their surface comb through the tobacco, separating and aligning the tobacco laminae and stems.
The carding plates play a critical role in the tobacco processing line of the Mark8 machine, helping to ensure a consistent and high-quality tobacco blend for use in cigarette production.
