Abstract
A yarn conditioning apparatus for removing interlace nodes from a multifilament, crimped yarn, and including a first roll assembly for accepting the multifilament, interlaced yarn from a yarn supply at a predetermined yarn feed rate and outputting the yarn, and a second yarn roll assembly having a yarn feed rate greater than the yarn feed rate of the yarn input roll assembly for accepting the output yarn from the first roll assembly and stretching the yarn to a degree sufficient to remove interlace nodes from the yarn and outputting the conditioned yarn to downstream processes.
