Abstract
The method of fabricating a coreless hollow filament bundle of interlaced hollow filaments to be used as the membrane elements in a separatory module comprising the steps of providing first and second axially spaced co-axially rotatable engagement members carrying filament receiving arms, concomitantly rotating said rotatable engagement members while alternately engaging filaments upon a respective filament receiving arm of one rotary member, causing said filament to traverse the space between said first rotary member and the second rotary member and engaging said filament upon a receiving arm of said second rotary member, and continuously feeding said filament between said receiving arms of said rotary members so as to provide a coreless bundle of filaments interlacing with one another in left and right hand helices at angles to the common axis of rotation of the two rotary members.
