Melt Spinning
Melt Spinning
Melt spinning is a fibre production process that involves melting a polymer and extruding it through a spinneret to form filaments. The filaments are then cooled and solidified by air or water. Melt spinning is used to produce synthetic fibres such as polyester, nylon and polypropylene.

Description
Melt spinning is a manufacturing process used to produce fibers by melting a polymer resin and then extruding it through a single hole to form continuous filaments. The small melt spinning line is capable of producing fibres from 5g to 20 g of pellets of thermoplastic polymer, 1-5 mm in diameter.
