Features and Benefits.

The wetting head is used to prepare the filament yarn to be textured in the air texturing process (ATY). The core thread is usually wetted during a specific process, especially in a process where core and effect yarn is air textured.

The wetting process is used to soften the sizing agent (spin finish), which ultimately improves the texture. Many years of practical use with different machine configurations have shown that the wetting head ensures optimum water transfer to the yarn. The higher the total count range of the feed yarn, the more wetting that is required.

Assortment.

Three different wetting heads with various flow rates (l/h) are available. The wetting head features an integrated splash guard cap.

A wide range of feed yarns such as PES, PA, PP can be covered in the three wetting head sizes.

Demands on the thread wetting system

Water delivery rate

Depending on the count, the following water delivery rates must be available per thread position for wetting the thread:

… 500 dtex

0.8 … 1.5 l/h

… 2000 dtex

0.8 … 2.5 l/h

… 5000 dtex

1.5 … 3.5 l/h

Water quality

In order to prevent damaging or scaling of the jets, the water of the thread wetting system must be filtered and softened.
