Abstract
A method for manufacturing brushes, whereby brush bodies (2) which are provided with openings (12) according to a specific hole pattern are supplied to a filling station (6), whereat bundles of fibres (7) are supplied to the openings (12) at this filling station (6). Each brush body (2) is successively presented to at least two filling tools (13-14) at each filling station (6), whereby each filling tool (13-14) fills the entire hole pattern with bundles of fibres (7) in different steps, and whereby at each step, each of the filling tools (13-14) fills the same part (A-B) of said hole pattern in different brush bodies (2).
Claims9
In a method for manufacturing brushes in which brush bodies having fiber receiving openings arranged in a specific hole pattern are supplied to a filling station having at least two filling tools whereat bundles of fibers are inserted by the filling tools in the openings, the improvement comprising the steps of:
- successively presenting each brush body to the at least two filling tools such that each filling tool fills only a portion of the entire hole pattern of each brush body presented to it for filling, with the portions filled by the filling tools being different but complimentary to each other so that the filling tools collectively in succeeding steps insert fibers into the entire hole pattern of each brush body supplied to the filling station;
- each filling tool filling a different portion of the hole pattern of each successive brush body presented to it for filling.
