Methods and apparatus for the winding of filaments

摘要

In a filament spinning and packaging system, a winder is employed to draw filaments from the filament processing operation at a threadline tension level suited to the processing operation. The winder winds the thread into large cylindrical packages. It includes a control system which may be set to control the tension of the thread entering the outer layer of the package to a level suited to the building of a good thread package, while maintaining a different upstream threadline tension suited to the filament processing operation.
