DEF

A system of staple-fibre spinning which utilises air to apply the twisting couple to the yarn during its formation.

OBS

The air is blown through small holes arranged tangentially to the yarn surface and this causes the yarn to rotate. The majority of systems using this technique produce fasciated yarns, but by using two air jets operating in opposing twist directions it is possible to produce yarns with more controlled properties but of more complex structure.

[...] le Tribunal était d'avis que les fils cardés et les fils peignés produits par filature à fibres libérées et par filature à jet d'air n'étaient pas substituables aux fils en question.

CONT

Air vortex spinning depends on using kinetic energy of a spinning stream of air to the yarn forming inside the specific and immobile vortex ... a method of opto-electronic visualisation of motion of yarn in the spinning chamber during the air vortex spinning process will be developed ... The optimisation of the spinning process will concern the selection of process parameters and the shape of the spinning chamber and should result in a decrease in the non-uniformity of the number of twists of the yarn obtained and an improvement in its life and service qualities ... we plan to work out the method of visualisation of yarn movement in the spinning chamber during the air vortex spinning process ... We are going to check the process of vortex spinning for different rows of materials and linear masses of yarn. We would like to reduce the inequalities of torsion number in obtaining yarn.
