What is Melt spinning? Process, Materials, and Machine Guide
Have you ever wondered where do all the threads for Nylon, Polyethene, and PET come from? You’ve seen them in fabric labels, but to produce these industrial fabrics and plastics, you’d use a process called melt spinning.
Melt spinning is used to produce synthetic fibers, multifilament yarns, microfibers, and even medical textiles. Melt spinning machines rely on rapid cooling of thin fibers to produce continuous filaments and metal ribbons.
