Abstract
A process for the melt spinning of a fibre forming polymer into a filamentary yarn in which the spinning threadline is passed through a heated shroud located immediately below the spinneret, the threadline is cooled by an air current and then taken up at a speed of 5 km/min or more the improvement being that the temperature of the environment within the shroud, and in consequence the temperature of the filaments themselves, is progressively reduced, before the filaments in the threadline are cooled by the air current.
