Abstract:
1. A coating machine for coating fiber yarns, comprising: a yarn supply device to supply at least one fiber yarn which travels along a yarn path; a coating device including: a thickness adjuster disposed downstream of said coating device, and including an adjuster support and at least one adjusting die mounted movably to said adjuster support, said adjusting die including a through hole which is oriented to be aligned with the yarn path that extends over said tank so as to permit passage of the coated fiber yarn therethrough, said through hole having an upstream inlet end and a downstream outlet end and being tapered from said upstream inlet end to said downstream outlet end; a shape-setting device disposed downstream of said thickness adjuster for setting the shape of the coated fiber yarn, said shape-setting device including a heating unit controllable to operate at a predetermined temperature for heating the coated fiber yarn; a cooling device disposed downstream of said shape-setting device for cooling the coated fiber yarn; and a yarn pick-up device disposed downstream of said cooling device for collecting the coated fiber yarn.
