Stretch Yarns By Heat Setting




Stretch Yarns By Heat Setting:

 Using the thermoplastic property of the synthetic fiber, they are shaped into coils, crimps, curls, or waves.


  • Coils can be achieved in a number of ways, but the most popular method is placing a false twist – essentially, a high twist is placed into the fiber, which is heat set with steam and cooled quickly. Untwisting it causes the fiber to coil and act like a spring. This is used for tight fitting products e.g. tights, stockings, ski pants and swimsuits.

  • Crimps are produced in a number of ways. One method entails using a stuffer box: the filaments are stuffed tightly into a heated chamber (the stuffer box), which changes the shape of the yarn into a random zigzag pattern or uses two cogged wheels opposite each other to crimp the yarn after extrusion.
