Design and development of a biopolymer microfiber fabrication device by Yap, Yi-Liang.

“…Molten polymer within a holding cup with a tiny orifice below is drawn by a needle and stuck onto a spinning mandrel for collection. As the melt is pulled from the orifice, extensional flow causes the thinning in the melt diameter and the atmosphere cools the melt down into a fiber before it is collected on the mandrel. …”
