Abstract: A system for inspecting a tube can comprise a first image acquisition device that is configured to capture at least one image of the first end of the tube. A second image acquisition device can be configured to capture at least one image of at least a portion of the outer surface of the circumferential wall of the tube. A first conveyor can be configured to position the tube so that the first image acquisition device can capture the at least one image of the first end of the tube and the second image acquisition device can capture the at least one image of at least a portion of the circumferential wall of the tube. A computing device can be configured to determine, based on the at least one image from the first image acquisition device or the at least one image from the second image acquisition device, if the tube has a flaw.

Abstract: A system for making polymeric fibers can comprise a main extruder configured to receive a polymer feedstock composition. The main extruder can have an outlet in fluid communication with a transfer line configured to receive a polymer melt from the main extruder and transfer the polymer melt in a flow direction that is towards a spinneret. A side arm extruder assembly can be positioned along the transfer line between the main extruder and the spinneret. The side arm extruder assembly can comprise an outlet positioned within the transfer line to inject a colored polymer melt concentrate into the transfer line.

Abstract: An artificial turf filament has a cross-section that includes a body having a center juncture having a first width and a first and second wing member arranged in diverging orientation from the center juncture. Each wing member having a plurality of legs and a plurality of leg junctures positioned between respective legs of the plurality of legs. Moving from the center juncture to a distal end of each wing member, the minimal cross-sectional widths of the respective legs of the plurality of legs decrease and the maximal cross-sectional widths of the respective leg junctures of the plurality of leg junctures decrease.
