STRETCH BREAK METHOD AND PRODUCT

摘要

A method for stretch breaking fibers (30) to produce a staple yarn (32) and operating a staple fiber spinning machine that enables the production of a plurality of products of lot size smaller than a large denier tow product. The process includes at least two break zones (34,36) and a consolidation zone (38) downstream from a second break zone to form a staple yarn. The filaments are broken in a second break zone downstream from the first break zone by increasing the speed of the fiber fed into the process.
