Pile Cutting Machine

Creating Corduroy Wales

Without a wale-cutting machine, there would be no corduroy—a uniquely textured fabric. This machine is the key to transforming greige fabric into finished corduroy.

• Wale Size Control: By adjusting the spacing and cutting position of the slitting knives, wales of varying widths (fine to wide) can be produced, including:
  • Extra-fine wales, fine wales, medium wales, coarse wales, wide wales, etc., meeting diverse fashion and application requirements.

2. Enhancing Fabric Quality

• Wale Definition: Precise slitting ensures each wale is cut completely and neatly, resulting in sharp, distinct wale edges.
• Plush Surface Fullness: High-quality slitting allows the pile to stand fully erect, forming a plump, highly lustrous fabric surface.
• Reducing Defects: Eliminates quality issues such as edge fraying, missed cuts, and wale merging (adhesion of two adjacent wales).

3. Adapting to Various Raw Materials and Weave Structures

• Compatible Raw Materials: Suitable for processing greige corduroy fabrics made from various fibers, including cotton, polyester-cotton blends, viscose, and Tencel.
• Versatile Weave Compatibility: Works with greige fabrics woven in different structures (e.g., weft rib weave).
