Abstract
The invention relates to a compressive crimping device for a synthetic multi-threaded yarn. The thread is compressed by a texturing device to form a tangle of thread. The tangle of thread is subsequently cooled by means of a cooling device and unraveled to form a crimped thread. The tangle of thread runs through a heating area in the transition area between the texturing device and the cooling device, the heating area being essentially defined by the distance between the tangle outlet of the texturing device and a tangle receiving element of the cooling device. According to the invention, a means of adjustment is provided in order to adjust the distance and deflection angle between the tangle outlet and the element receiving the tangle.
