Means is provided for moving the clamping rollers into and out of contact with each other and for imparting a partial rotation to each of the rollers while they are out of contact. A wiping means is provided for wiping the surfaces of the clamping rollers when they rotate to avoid the accumulation of lint on the surfaces of the clamping rollers.
