at the threads the exemplary embodiment shown in fig3 and 4 is essentially identical to the aforementioned embodiment so that at this point only the differences will be explained and otherwise reference is made to the above description in the example embodiment shown in fig3 and 4 a crimping device 26 is arranged between the drawing device 13 and the winding device 17 the crimping device 26 comprises a plurality of texturing means 27 to texture the drawn threads 5 1 to 5 3 in parallel side by side as a sheet of strands the texturing means 27 can be for example texturing nozzles that consist of a delivery nozzle and a stuffer box thereby each of the threads 5 1 to 5 3 is reshaped to a thread plug 30 1 to 30 3 such crimping devices are well known so that at this point no further explanation is needed the crimping device 26 comprises a cooling roller 28 on whose periphery are provided three thread guide tracks for receiving the thread 30 1 to 30 3 at the periphery of the cooling roller 28 the thread plugs 30 1 to 30 3 are cooled the cooling roller 28 is driven by a roller drive 33 as is further apparent from the illustration in fig3 after crimping the thread plugs 30 1 to 30 2 are dissolved into the threads 5 1 to 5 3 and collectively pulled by a pull off godet 31 1 off the cooling roller 28 downstream the pull off godet 31 1 a further godet 31 2 is arranged and is combined with an overtravel roll a swirling device 32 is located.
