(54) First heater for a draw texturing machine


(57) A first heater (H1) for a draw texturing machine which guides a plurality of running yarns (3) by a single guide (27) and which is able to process a plurality of yarns (3) in a single heating space (26) of the first heater (H1). On conventional systems where only one yarn can be processed by one heater as the number of heaters and the number of winders are the same, by doubling the yarn processed by separate heaters for example, half the winders become free. According to the present invention, as a plurality of yarns (3) can be processed in a single heating space (26) without contact between the yarns (3), no winders become free.
