  Los filamentos sintéticos plásticos que se presentan de forma continua, son cortados previamente por una máquina cortadora para asimilarlos a las fibras naturales. Muchas veces se rehílan en máquinas de hilado de algodón o lana para eliminar el aspecto vítreo y brillante de las telas sintéticas.
  Plastic synthetic filaments that appear in continuous form are previously cut by a cutting machine to make them resemble natural fibers. Often they are twisted hard in cotton- or wool-spinning machines to remove the glassy and shiny appearance of synthetic fabrics.
