Abstract

Systems and methods for producing BCF yarns include providing at least one color enhancement method for enhancing the color and/or hue of at least one of the N bundles of filaments. The color enhancement methods include tacking one or more of the bundles of spun filaments prior to and/or during drawing, texturizing one or more bundles of spun filaments individually from the other bundles of spun filaments, providing intermediate tacking of at least one bundle of texturized filaments and feeding the tacked and texturized filaments to a mixing cam for positioning tacked and texturized bundles relative one to the other before reaching the final tacking device, or combinations thereof.
