This machine compresses the wool bundles place on the green conveyor belt, which is fed into the two pinch rollers. This forms a wool mat. This mat is then shredded to pieces by the large drum with claw like teeth. This process releases the debris lodged within the wool, cleaning it. Although it appears to be a simple machine, there is a crucial engineering element in selecting and specifying the electric motor responsible for spinning the drum. This is due to the time it takes to get the high inertia drum rotating and to ensure the motor does not overheat during this startup phase.
