Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0253036A1] 1. Method for removing waste slivers produced by cutting false selvedges, of the type comprising a step of coiling said slivers in the form of spiral turns and a discharge step, characterized in that a single cord formed by the slivers is subjected to a false twist, producing a winding of the slivers one in respect of the other, which permits to automatically balance their tensions, the cord so formed being then coiled in the form of successive spiral turns.
