Abstract
A method of collecting a strand using an air stream dissipater comprises texturizing the strand with an air stream on a first side of the air stream dissipater, directing the texturized strand through the air stream dissipater and collecting the texturized strand in a container on the second side of the air stream dissipater. A system for texturizing a strand comprises a texturizer for texturizing the strand with an air stream, a container to collect and hold the texturized strand and an air stream dissipater provided between the texturizer and the container to dissipate excess air from the air stream and prevent the excess air from entering the container.
