Scope note:

Mechanized devices designed to produce the napped and textured finish of fabrics designed to mimic the characteristics of chinchilla fur. These devices typically include a table roughly equal to the width of the chinchilla fabric. The fabric, often fine wool, is laid on the table parallel to a vibrating plate, which moves rapidly across the fabric's surface to produce the chinchilla's characteristic naps and tufts.
