Polyester Straight Heat Set Yarn – High-Quality PET BCF Yarn by Western Textiles Company (Westex) for Superior Performance
Description
Western Textiles Company (Westex) proudly presents Polyester Straight Heat Set Yarn, a high-performance PET BCF yarn designed to offer superior dimensional stability, volumetric growth, softness, and wrinkle resistance. This yarn undergoes a specialized thermosetting process, ensuring its durability and enhanced texture. Reprocessing PET BCF yarn through heat setting enhances its stability and durability, making it an ideal choice for various applications, especially in carpet manufacturing.
Production Process
Producing Polyester Straight Heat Set Yarn requires a series of precision-controlled steps. The process begins when technicians twist or cable PET BCF yarn using an advanced cabling machine. After twisting, they load the bobbins onto a creel and transfer them to a specialized heat-setting machine. The yarn then moves onto a belt, where it coils and enters a controlled tunnel for a specific duration. Inside the tunnel, steam and precisely regulated temperatures fix the twist permanently, resulting in a stable, straight, and heat-set yarn structure.
Once the heat-setting process is complete, technicians wind the yarn onto paper tubes, creating bobbins with customized lengths and weights according to customer specifications. At Westex, production relies on two state-of-the-art heat-setting machines—Sussen Power Heat Set and Superba—to ensure consistent quality and efficiency.
Advantages of Heat Setting
Heat setting offers multiple advantages, making Polyester Straight Heat Set Yarn a preferred choice for textile manufacturers:
- Enhanced Bulkiness & Softness – The yarn achieves a fuller and softer texture.
- Eliminates Torqueing Issues – Prevents undesirable twisting and curling in subsequent processing.
- Improved Dimensional Stability – The yarn retains its shape even under varying conditions.
