HAND TUFTED RUG - SHEARING & CROPPING MACHINE


When a hand tufted rug is initially tufted, there tends to be a few long ends that have shot through during the tufting process. 

When the rugs has been backed and taken down, these long ends need to be cropped or sheared off.

 This is usually done with a hand held cropping machine, much like a lawn mower.

 This machine takes off all the unwanted long ends and removes them to a vacuum cleaner which is attached separately to the cropper.

 You can see here how the shearing machine gives the rug its final smooth and even finish.

  1. The blog shows good process of making the hand-tufted rug. As the machine used in tufting design on the canvas is great. The modern rugs manufacturers are really working hard for advancing in the design of the rugs to meet the expectation of the customers.
