Lab Melt Spinning: Testing Polymers and Additives Before Production

At a glance. A melt spinning line melts pellets, meters the melt through a spin pack, cools the filaments and draws them. The Tech Inc. Lab Melt Spinning Machine follows the same steps as a production line at small scale.

Parts that matter

• Extruder with several heating zones.

• Melt pump for steady throughput.

• Quench chimney with controlled air.

• Godets for drawing and a winder.

Uses

PP, PET, PA and PLA fibres, biodegradable fibres, masterbatch and additive trials.

Frequently asked questions
