pressure is maintained during the mixing operation 14 a baffle 11 is then used to direct the fiber to individual mixing machines assigned to the first 6 or second 8 system section in the blending operation 12 textile fibers of varying denier length and materials are combined in the mixing operation 14 into a generally randomly distributed mixture the constituents of the fibers can be natural such as cotton wool or jute or they may be polymer based for example nylon polyester etc a loose fibrous mixture of fibers is transported through the system using a series of transport blowers 28 after the mixing operation 14 the fibers are transferred to a fine opening machine 30 which opens the fibers and prepares them for adhesive application once opened the fibers are again transported via a transport blower 28 to the adhesive application operation 18 at this operation the temperature of the fibers is elevated an adhesive such as mdi is applied to the mixed opened fibers while the percentage of mdi applied can be varied based on the required density of the end product it is envisioned that less than 20 and more particularly less than 10 and even more particularly 4 7 by weight mdi can be applied to the fibers to allow.
