One of these solutions is the dynamically centered tongue, with which the deflection
tongue side at high machine speeds is constructively corrected with a
specially molded tongue or with a slanted groove. With this, the wear of
needles and the appearance of the mesh is improved.Groz-Beckert was highly innovative as well
in the fields of activity of felting and sewing needles, in which he ventured from the
