SCHMELZSPINNVORRICHTUNG UND VERFAHREN ZUM ANLEGEN MEHRERER MULTIFILER FÄDEN IN EINE SCHMELZPINNVORRICHTUNG

A melt spinning device used for producing a plurality of multifilament yarns and which comprises a plurality of spinning nozzles for extruding a plurality of filament bundles, a preparation device for separately combining the filament bundles to individual yarns and a plurality of treatment devices. The filament bundles, when being extruded, are separated by a center distance (M) and the yarns in the treatment device are guided in a substantially smaller treatment spacing (B). This provides an especially compact melt spinning device and allows a rapid and uncomplicated threading of the filament bundles. For this purpose, a plurality of separating yarn guides are mounted downstream of the preparation device in the thread path. The separating yarn guides are arranged at a yarn spacing (S) to each other which is substantially smaller than the center distance (M). The filament bundles can thus be immediately separated by the movement of a manually guided suction device which withdraws the filament bundles directly from the spinning nozzles during thread-up.
