  • Method and apparatus for handling a sliver
    Patent number: 4700538
    Abstract: Textile slivers tend to loose their cohesion when travelling over long distances from one piece of storage or processing equipment to another such piece of equipment. This problem is overcome by subjecting the sliver to a false twisting process during its travel, desirably by a pneumatic false twister located immediately adjacent to the sliver-receiving equipment.
