PURPOSE: To provide an apparatus for separating and/or processing the end of a yarn, capable of maintaining the structure of a separated yarn end as widely as possible. CONSTITUTION: The resultant end of a yarn is separated using a controllably rotatable abrasive element 1 disposed between two yarn-tensioning mechanisms 2, 3. The abrasive element 1 is mounted stationary with respect to the yarn- tensioning mechanism 2, 3 such that the yarn 4 can be wrapped around the abrasive element 1 at a predetermined wrap angleα.
