The present disclosure relates to a non-woven fabric that is formed from a base part that spreads out in a planar shape and from a plurality of projecting parts that protrude in a thickness direction (Th) from the base part. Each of the projecting parts has a projecting surface part. Each of the projecting surface parts is configured such that the fiber density of the projecting surface part increases toward one side in a prescribed direction that is a surface direction of the non-woven fabric.

The roller comprises a covering layer made of a fibre composite material and a cylindrical roller main body having an outer first lateral surface, a first end section and a second end section. The covering layer completely surrounds the first lateral surface in the circumferential direction. A first edge region of the covering layer extends beyond the first end section, is folded over inwards and is fixed in relation to the roller main body. In a crosslapper, the roller can be provided as a deflection roller of a conveyor belt. In a carding machine, the roller can be provided as an engagement roller for engagement with fibre material.
