Abstract
Drawing, from a first installation, organic filaments in the form of one or more layers which converge toward a same point, and drawing, from a second installation, glass filaments which are joined together to form at least one strand. Guiding structure is provided to laterally introduce the glass strand into the area defined by the organic filaments before it is combined with the filaments at their point of convergence. A blowing device (48, 36) is also provided either outside or inside the area defined by the organic fibers.
