Abstract

A process and an installation for producing a yarn in accordance with an airjet-spinning method. A carded fibre sliver is subjected to more than three-fold drawing without levelling at a carding machine and deposited in a can (C). At least nine fibre slivers are fed draftfree from cans (C) to a draw frame and subjected to at least 8.5-fold drawing to form a fibre sliver and deposited in a can (C1). The fibre sliver in the cans (C1) is then fed to a spinning station of an airjet-spinning machine.
