Most synthetic fibers are created though extrusion, by forcing a thick, viscous liquid through a spinneret to form continuous, semi solid filaments.

Why Filters?

• Protect plugging of polymer melt filter / screen packs / spinnerets Reduce cleaning frequency

• Reduce cost of replacing damaged filters

• Reduce production downtime

• Particulate contaminants results in defective fiber causing higher breakage/ton

• Breakage per ton

• Consistent fiber quality (minimum breaks per ton)

• Lower overall cost / higher selling price
