Abstract

An arrangement is provided for open-end friction spinning including a pair of adjacently arranged suction rollers rotatable in the same rotational direction. One roller rotates into the wedge-shaped gap formation zone and the other rotates out of the wedge-shaped gap. It is provided that the suction slot of the suction insert inside of the roller rotating into the wedge-shaped gap is longer than the suction slot of the suction insert of the roller rotating out of the wedge-shaped gap. The portion of the suction slot of the roller rotating into the yarn formation zone which extends beyond the slot of the roller rotating out of the yarn formation zone is displaced circumferentially from the wedge-shaped gap so as to provide for enhanced spinning conditions in the region of the yarn tip.
