Polyester Frieze Heat Set Yarn – High-Quality PET BCF Yarn by Western Textiles Company (Westex) for Durable Carpets
Introduction
Manufacturers produce Polyester Frieze Heat Set Yarn using advanced heat-setting technology, creating a high-performance PET BCF yarn known for its durability, resilience, and textured finish. Produced by Western Textiles Company (Westex), this yarn goes through a specialized frieze treatment. This process enhances its crimp, durability, and texture. As a result, it is an excellent choice for carpets and rugs.
Production Process
The production of Polyester Frieze Heat Set Yarn follows a structured process to achieve exceptional quality and durability. First, manufacturers twist or cable PET BCF yarn using a cabling machine. Then, they place the twisted or cabled bobbins on a creel and feed them into a heat-setting machine. In the stuffer box, they apply controlled temperature, pressure, and steam to induce mechanical deformation, which creates the crimping effect.
After completing the initial crimping process, the yarn moves onto a conveyor belt. It then passes through a tunnel, where heat and steam enhance the curling effect, ensuring that the texture remains permanent. This frieze treatment increases crimp contraction, improves linear density, and minimizes shrinkage. Manufacturers apply a strong twist during processing, ensuring that when they release the yarn, it naturally curls back on itself. This process creates a distinctive textured appearance, enhancing both the durability and visual appeal of the final product.
