Textile engineering processes require increased accuracy of the carding machines' working cylinders. In engineering calculations for designing the cylinders, the models should take into account flexibility and joint type. Moreover, the tolerances of manufac turing the component parts of the cylinders should be tighter. A continuous model and a discrete (finite element model) model that consider these factors of the working cylinder are presented in this paper. The results of the model analyses are compared with experimental measurements.
