Abstract
In a method of restarting operations for manufacturing filaments from a molten mass of a thermoplastic material after the occurrence of the breaking of a filament, the filaments being drawn at a regular, high speed from a large number of orifices formed in the bottom of a bushing, a bead of the molten mass formed at an orifice where the breaking of a filament occurs is detected to thereby generate a signal; the speed of elongating the filaments is reduced upon receiving the signal so that a filament elongated in the vicinity of the bead at the reduced speed is brought into contact with the bead elongated by gravity, and elongates the bead into a filament having a larger diameter, during which operations to produce a regular filament product are stopped; and the speed of elongating the filaments is increased to the regular speed.
