Abstract

An improved crimper assembly for use in making crimped filter materials is disclosed. The improved features of the assembly include an insulated central heater block which incorporates a steam entrance housing. An anti-stuffing tube is provided in order to minimize the occasional wrapping of the crimper wheels by a rod of the filter material. Also provided are side plate bearing blocks which are insulated from the heater block. Other features include means for precision alignment and interchangeability of components.
