Heatsetting
Beschreibung
Fixation of the twist and/or shrinkage of the yarn.
This operation has mostly to be done to stabilize the twist and to avoid curling of the yarn.
Depending upon type of yarn, heatsetting is done between 60°C and 135° C.
Sometimes heatsetting is done to obtain special effects when yarns with different grades of shrinkage are used.
We use up to date equipment, fully computerized, to guarantee reproducebility of the process.
