Quenching systems
The main task of the quenching system within the context of complex spinning processes is the even
quenching of the liquid filaments at the exit of the spinneret. Our quenching systems supply a uniform,
turbulence-free airflow for achieving excellent yarn uniformity.
During the quenching process, each filament bundle is supplied with the same amount of cooling air,
hence ensuring defined crystallization and orientation of the molecular polymer structure as the basis
for the optimal physical properties, elongation and dyeability. For this reason, the quenching process has
a decisive influence in achieving excellent yarn qualities in the synthetic filament manufacturing process.
Moreover, all current processes are covered by this system, e.g. PET, PA 6, PA6.6 and others.
