This is the Cadillac of all swinging wool pickers. This is the perfect fiber-preparation tool to tease, open and blend fibers to prepare them for carding. Carding unteased fibers can damage both the fibers and the carder teeth. Infinitely faster and more thorough than hand teasing. Impressive density of picker teeth – over 620. Effortless, swinging on sealed ball bearings.
Brother Rover
Makes continuous rovings for a production spinner or for a sheep raiser to market the choicest wools. Feed good quality picked wool for a lovely, well firmed roving that comes with a automatic bump winder which makes it convenient center-pull ball of up to 6 ounces. Two dyed wools can be fed side-by-side for a delightful, two-color ribbon of wool. Will process up to 5 pounds per hour, depending on the fiber. Minimum fiber length, 3 inches. This carder just loves longer wools. The Brother rover is 64” inches long, 22” inches wide, 24” inches tall, weighs about 250 pounds. 1/2 Hp variable speed motor, wired for 110 volts, with switch on each end of machine. * Pictured with optional conveyor belt and ionizing bars.*

Fully equipped with safety sensors and emergency stops. We recommend a minimum 6x6x6 room with 600cfm fan. Uses a standard 115V plug. Pictured is our prototype. This is a dangerous power tool and great caution must be used when operating machine. Shipping is free in the US (lower 48 states).
