Abstract

The invention relates to a spin beam (1) for spinning a plurality of synthetic filament yarns and a spinning machine comprising a spin beam (1) of this type. The spin beam (1) consists of an elongate rectangular solid, which is filled with a heating medium, and the underside of which mounts two parallel rows of connections (20), each connection accommodating a spin pot (17) with a spinneret (18). From a melt supply line (23), melt is distributed to a multiple spin pump (12) for each row of connections (20), and supplied therefrom via melt distribution lines (14) to the spin pots (17) of each row. The filaments emerging from spinnerets (18) are cooled and solidified below the spinnerets (18) by directing thereto a transverse flow of cooling air. The cooling air exits from a permeable wall (33) of an air distribution chamber, the permeable wall facing one row of spinnerets, and the chambers defining a common rectangular solid.
