Staple Fibre Processing Line
topic
The staple fibre line converts tow into cut staple through sequential operations: drawing (3–5× at 60–80°C), heat setting (optional), crimping (stuffer box crimper, 5–15 crimps/cm), drying/relaxing, and cutting (38–51 mm for cotton-system spinning, 60–150 mm for worsted system). Finish application occurs at multiple points to maintain processability.
Role
The staple fibre line determines the final fibre properties that must be compatible with downstream spinning equipment. Crimp level, cut length, and finish type must be matched to the intended spinning system (ring, rotor, or air-jet).
