Air jets from Heberlein^®

Types and their areas of application

Air migration jets
High yarn speed, close thread spacing and microfilament yarns in spinning require optimum lubrication and a good locking of the filaments.
The MigraJet generates a uniform, sparse distribution of the spin finish. It produces an intermingling of the filaments without interlacing knots. By this means the processing of the yarns is improved (e.g. in texturing).

Air interlacing jets
Heberlein interlacing jets produce the required locking of filaments in an on-line process for the problem-free manufacture and processing of filament yarns (spinning, drawing, texturing, knitting, weaving). Interlacing enables higher processing speeds, improves the package build and prevents or reduces filament and yarn breaks.

Air covering jets
These interlacing jets are not intended to improve yarn processing but rather are for the cost effective combining of very different yarns. Preferably combinations of elastane with filament and also staple fiber yarns. The composite yarns thus produced are suitable for use in stretch ware such as hosiery, socks, underwear, sport, leisure and ladies outerwear.

Detorque jets
By means of the Heberlein DetorqueJet the torque-liveliness of FT SET textured yarns is eliminated or reduced during the manufacturing process. In this way further processing is improved significantly.

Air texturing jets
Heberlein air texturing jets impart a texture and spun-like character to the filaments and are suitable for all types of filament yarn. Because of the high abrasion resistance of these yarns, they are ideal for high class clothing and for the automotive industry. The greatly increased productivity makes the use of these jets interesting also for fine yarns.
