Abstract: A spinning apparatus for extruding a group of filaments by means of an annular spinneret. An annular collection chamber is arranged upstream of the spinneret, which is provided with a plurality of nozzle bores. The collection chamber has an upper inlet area and a lower annular outlet area, which is connected to the upper inlet area. In the inlet area of the collection chamber a filter device is disposed, upstream of which is a melt feed. The inlet area of the collection chamber is formed by a plurality of filter chambers, which are each provided with a melt inlet and a melt outlet. The filter device has a plurality of substantially cylindrical filter elements, which are each provided with a powdered filter medium. One of these filter elements is assigned to each filter chamber. This ensures a large filtration area and deep bed filtration of the polymer melt.

Abstract: An arrangement for melt spinning of synthetic high polymers comprising a spinning bar, rails arranged at a height of a nozzle set inserted in the spinning bar, and a device for exchanging the spinning bars and including a carriage with an arm hydraulically moveable from an inclined inwardly directed normal position to a horizontal working position, wherein a free end of the arm is connected with a table serving for receiving of the exchangeable nozzle set and provided with elements for centering and securing of the dismounted nozzle set.
