Collective “short spinning process” from the VEB Kammgarn spinnerei Chemnitz and VEB Kammgarn spinnerei Gera for the successful development of the short spinning process. The classic worsted spinning process was used exclusively for the production of worsted yarn from pure sheep's wool . Based on the requirements, the cost to decrease, the collective developed a new short spin process for W- rayon . Through detailed investigations and calculations, the previous worsted spinning process has been shortened from 14 passages to 5 passages. This decisive shortening of the manufacturing process reduces manufacturing costs by 41 percent, and raw material utilization is improved by around 4 percent. As a result of the fewer passages, there is less stress on the fiber. The fabric produced in this way can hardly be distinguished from a real wool fabric because of its better grip.
