Melt spinning is a typical spinning of synthetic fiber such as Polyester, Nylon, Polypropylene. Melted polymer is discharged from the spinneret.
The discharged fiber is wound after quenching process and drawing process.Melt spinning is used for various polymers and applications.

By coating on the nozzle surface, various performance can be given.Optimum coating materials can be selected depending on the raw materials used, spinning and cleaning condition.
It also contributes to cost saving such as extended life time and maintenance during operation.

By changing polymer combination and spinning condition, fiber spun from irregular shaped hole can obtain various type of characteristic. The hole shape is selected based on required performances.
Our pilot melt spinning machine is for POY and SDY processes test by thermoplastic polymer like PET, PA and PO. It is able to spin by not only single polymer but 2 or 3 types of polymers simultaneously to produce a conjugated fiber.
