Motorized Carder Information and Kits for Existing Carder Owners
Kits for Series 200 and 400 Finest Carders (existing owners of carders)
are below information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This
will cover all the chain drives: the regular "Finest", the "Finest-doublewide",
the 200 series and the 200x2 series. Note:
the Petite cannot be motorized because it is a light duty machine and not constructed
to withstand the stresses imparted by the motor. These carders are
made to the same high standards as the hand crank models.
Being an engineer, Otto Strauch designed these machines to be unique. They
are"high tech" drum carders featuring both variable speed AND reverse
functions. The "infinitely variable speed" feature (not just two
or three speed settings) is a wonder when working with fine fibers like
alpaca, merino and cashmere.
These carders use very high quality, durable, electronically
controlled motors that are made in the USA! These machines have been extensively
beta tested by some "heavy duty" fiber artists and all have raved
about the
design, workmanship and durability.
Yes, a 230 volt version will also
available to serve the international markets.
FEATURES & BENEFITS: Timesaving; both hands are free to allow the fiber
artist to control how the
fiber is being carded or blended. Those with wrist, elbow and/or shoulder
issues will find carding with a
Strauch motorized machine painless and relaxing. The ability to card fibers
at a consistent speed will make consistent batts. Folks wanting to process lots
of fiber (ie. a cottage industry to make money!) will find these carders
remarkable.The motor and electronic controller were engineered (by Otto Strauch)
to be quiet, robust, dependable, self-diagnostic and trouble free. As with
any electronic device it is recommended to plug carder in through a surge
protector.
