Melt-spinning process and melt-spinning apparatus for producing a crimped yarn
The invention relates to a melt-spinning process and apparatus for producing a crimped yarn. A spinneret means is used to spin a thermoplastic polymer into a filament bundle which is cooled down, drawn and, in a stuffer box, compressed into a yarn plug. The yarn plug is resolved into a crimped yarn,...

Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a melt-spinning process and apparatus for producing a crimped yarn. A spinneret means is used to spin a thermoplastic polymer into a filament bundle which is cooled down, drawn and, in a stuffer box, compressed into a yarn plug. The yarn plug is resolved into a crimped yarn, which is wound up to form a package. To maximize the crimp stability of the yarn, amorphous portions in the molecular structure of the post-drawing yarn material are avoided. This is achieved according to the invention by a relaxation treatment after the drawing step and before the compressing step by maintaining a minimum yarn pull force of >0.05 cN/dtex at a relaxation temperature in the range from 120 DEG C to 245 DEG C. |
