<p>A method for forming mineral fibres by pouring a molten material onto the circumference of centrifuging wheels having substantially horizontal axes, whereby the fibres are centrifugally formed then thrown in a direction substantially parallel to the axis by a main gas flow over at least part of the wheel circumference. An auxiliary gas flow is generated in substantially the same direction as the main gas flow, a liquid binder is sprayed onto the fibres, and the auxiliary gas flow consists of individual streams of which some, in particular, are rotating. Part of the liquid binder may be fed into the rotating streams. In the device for carrying out the method, secondary blowing nozzles around the fiberising machine comprise rotary guides, particularly helical rods or worms. An enhanced distribution of the binder throughout the fibres may be achieved.</p> |
