Hot Pin Attachment

Hot Pins for Fancy Yarn Production

TSP hot pin attachments provide controlled heating for false twist texturing machines, helping produce fancy and value added yarns. Adjusting yarn contact length and temperature supports thick and thin, thin and thick, and localised tight spot effects.

Yarn Effects and Fabric Appearance

Controlled contact with the heated pin allows manufacturers to vary yarn characteristics, creating thick and thin sections or localised tight spots. These effects add visual texture to yarns and fabrics for fashion, upholstery, home textiles and speciality applications.
