Abstract: A spinning beam for producing melt-spun filaments, in which liquid plastics material is conveyed via an externally arranged extruder to at least one pump, which conveys the liquid plastics material to at least one spin pack having a spinneret, at least the pump and the spin pack being heated by a heat transfer medium which is heated in a boiler. The pump, the boiler and an opening for receiving a spin pack are arranged in a modular assembly, which can be installed and fixed singly, or in a plurality one behind the other, in a frame of the spinning beam.

Abstract: The invention relates to a melt-blow head with a rectilinear row of nozzle bores arranged in a nozzle bar, said nozzle bores serving to produce endless filaments formed from a melt, said nozzle bores being associated with blowing slots, in the form of longitudinal slots, of two slot-plates for feeding blowing air at an angle to the nozzle bores and to which nozzle bores the melt is fed through one or more distributors in the melt-blow head, the distributor(s) being supplied with the melt through a feeding pipe. The feeding pipe in the melt-blow head leads from a lateral inlet via a redirecting means in an essentially vertical direction to the distributor, said inlet being connected to a melt pipe through a removable connector, the nozzle bar being fixed in a defined position with respect to the slot-plates and being removable therefrom in an approximately vertical direction.
