2. Two types of spinning are used to creat yarns;
Staple spinning
Extrusion spinning

3. Staple Spinning
Staple spinning turns short fibres into yarn. Short fibres are combed or carded, then drawn out to produce a long yarn.

4. Woollen and Worsted

6. Extrusion Spinning
Extrusion spinning creates yarns by passing a fibre-forming substance through a spinneret. The substance the solidifies to form a filament.

7. Wet Spinning
Wet spinning is used for fibre forming substances that have been dissolved in a solvent.

9. Melt Spinning
In melt-spinning, the fibre-forming substance is melted for extrusion through the spinneret and then directly solidified by cooling.
(Nylon and Polyester are produced in this manner)
