ABSTRACT:
The application discloses an apparatus and a process for the manufacture of continuous fibers by mechanical attenuation. It is especially useful in obtaining a strand composed of a mixture of filaments of differing cross sections in constant and definite proportion. This is obtained by employment of a bushing having a lower surface comprising a multiplicity of fiberizing centers of varying configurations, each fiberizing center being formed by a zone perforated by a group of orifices from which at least one filament can be attenuated in a stable manner. The strands produced are particularly adapted for the reinforcement of plastic materials.
