BRUSHING & VACUUMING
Brusher/Lint Collector
High‑Performance Fabric Cleaning with Integrated Lint Removal
The Menzel Brusher/Lint Collector is a proven, heavy‑duty solution for removing lint, dust, and surface debris from a wide range of woven and nonwoven fabrics. Designed for continuous operation, it brushes and vacuums the fabric while lifting long fibers—making it an excellent pre‑singeing machine and a reliable cleaning system for finishing lines.
The optional lint collector captures debris in large nylon bags and filters the air before returning it to the production area, ensuring a cleaner, safer working environment.
