Abstract: The precise measuring and control of fiber tension are critically important for enhancing structural and mechanical properties in spinning processes, as tension directly influences orientation, crystallinity, and mechanical properties. However, current tension measurement methods primarily operate offline and lack real-time measuring capabilities. A non-contact fiber tension detection system is introduced to investigate the effects of draw tension and its uniformity on the structure and mechanical properties of polyester fibers. During experiments conducted at a spinning speed of 1200 m/min across different draw ratios, the non-contact system demonstrated strong agreement with the contact tension detector. The results showed that increasing the tension from 34 cN to 164 cN reduced the monofilament diameter from 39.61 µm to 20.35 µm. Simultaneously, the orientation factor nearly tripled, while crystallinity increased from 55.72% to 77.39%. Mechanical testing revealed a 50.96% improvement in breaking strength, rising from 1.57 to 2.37 cN/dtex, accompanied by a significant decrease in elongation at break from 275.55% to 34.95%. However, tension fluctuations, characterized by an average fluctuation coefficient increase from 4.51% to 18.18%, caused diameter inconsistency. These fluctuations also reduced the orientation factor by 10.78%, lowered crystallinity, and substantially deteriorated mechanical properties. These findings underscore the critical importance of real-time, online tension monitoring for ensuring polyester fiber quality and performance during production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
