ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for producing and winding strands formed of filaments to achieve good split efficiency on removal of the plurality of strands from the package for further processing, and to produce a package of wound strands having good edges.
The apparatus has a filament forming means, gathering means to gather the filaments into a plurality of strands, rotatable winder to attenuate and wind the strands, a traverse vehicle guide, reciprocating means, and contacting means. The traverse vehicle guide has a base and angularly opposing sides that converge toward each other with one side being longer than the other. The sides do not touch each other and thereby form an opening for placement of the strands into a containment area formed by the angularly opposing sides and the base. The traverse guide deposits the strands in essentially uncrossed, side-by-side relation, and cooperates with the contacting means at each end of a layer to deposit the strands in grouped relationship.
