OverviewCompact fine-tune weft straightener designed to correct residual weft distortion in heavyweight and extra-wide textiles such as denim, carpet and technical fabrics. The unit includes skew and bow rollers as standard to allow very fine adjustment of the straightening effect while keeping overall device dimensions small. Reinforced components and bearings make the machine suitable for high mechanical loads.
