Abstract
Abstract Apparatus for applying preparation agents onto a large filament bundle passing through substantially vertically, comprising an applicator head with a slit for applying the preparation agent and at least one guide edge for guiding the filament bundle. A supply duct supplies the preparation agent to the slit. The applicator head consists of at least two opposite surfaces forming the slit and the guide edge, which surfaces are provided at least in the slit with a roughness assisting the distribution of the agent in the slit.
