To overcome the shortcomings existing in the roller drafting system of air jet spinning, a set of combing roller-drafting system has been introduced to substitute the roller drafting system in air jet spinning. Moreover, a funnel-shaped fibre conveyer, a disc fibre collector and a swirl twister have been designed to accomplish the spinning process, which was named disc swirl spinning. Experimental spinning proves that combing roller drafting device wears little. Its remarkable advantage lies in the high efficiency of drafting. The rotational speed of jet stream in nozzle can be well utilized, which promises a high productivity. The relationship between the drafting process parameters of disc swirl spinning and yarn properties, such as tenacity and peeling-off-resistance, has been investigated and the data suggest that yarn properties keep stable when combing roller speed is 6000–7000 rpm, feeding quantity is 1.695–2 g/min, sliver linear density is 2–2.58 g/m, feeding tension is 0.012 N and the unwinding tension of the core filaments is 0.06 N. Furthermore, the appearance of disc swirl spun yarn is compared with that of air jet spun yarn. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) photos show that yarn structure of disc swirl spun yarn is similar to that of air jet spun yarn. The core is bound by the outer fibres and it is nearly parallel and no twist. However, the outer fibres of disc swirl spun yarn cover yarn body totally, which is different with that of air jet spun yarn.
