Fabric Manufacturing

Fabric Manufacturing  
Fabric: Manufactured assembly  of fibers and or yarn having substantial  surface  area in relation to its thickness and sufficient cohesion to give  the assembly useful mechanical strength or A cloth made by weaving, knitting, or felting fibers.
Making Fabric
Two common  methods:
  • Weaving –creates woven fabric
  • Knitting –created by looping yarns together
  • Nonwoven
Weaving
  • Two sets of yarns are used
  • Lengthwise or warp yarns are strongest
-Go up and down the body in clothing
  • Crosswise or filling yarns are weaker
-Have more stretch,so go  across the body in clothing  
Three Basic Weaves
  1. plain weave
  2. Twill weave
  3. Stain weave
Plain over
  • One over, one under
  • Strong, Durable easy to sew
  • Fabric names:
-Gingham
-Chambery
-Poplin
-Percale
-Muslim
 Twill weave
  • A yarn passes or floats over one or more yarns in the same direction
  • Very durable , resists
  • Wrinkles and hides soil
  • Fabric names:
-Garbardine
-Denim
-Flannel
-Herringbone
Satin Weave
  • Made by floating a yarn over four or more yarns, then under one yarn
  • Makes a very smooth , shiny and durable fabric
  • Not durable floats tend to break  or sang
  • Fabric names:
-Satin
-Sateen

Knitted Fabrics
  • Very popular for apparel
  • Stretch makes knits comfortable
  • Wrinkle resistant
  • Made from any fiber or yarn
-cotton knit
-polyester knit
-Nylon knit
 Knitted fabrics
  • One loop of yarn if pulled through another loop
  • Fabrics is made on computerized knitting machines
  • Most common knit is single knit used in t shirts
  • Fabrics names
-Double knit
-jersey
-velour
-Rib knit
Types of fabric:4
1.       Weaving fabric
2.       Knitting fabric

Study on gearing diagram of a Draw frame Machine.

      YARN MANUFACTURING   TECHNOLOGY LAB-2 Experiment:1 EXP. NAME: Study on gearing diagram of a Drawframe Machine. Introduction /Theory: Drawframe  is a machine for combining and drawing slivers of a textile fiber (as of hemp for rope manufacture or cotton for spinning). Drawing  is the operation by which slivers are blended, doubled and leveled. In short staple spinning the term is only applied to the process at a It is a process of yarn manufacturing in which the sliver is elongated when passes through pairs of rollers, each pair moving faster than the previous one.This permits combination of several slivers. These slivers are drawn and elongated to straighten and create greater uniformity.There are two types of draw frame 1.     Draw frame -1/Pre-comb drawing/Breaker draw frame 2.     Draw frame -2/Post-comb drawing/Finisher draw frame Objectives of Draw Frame: 1. To straighten the fibre...

Difference between Dyeing and Printing

Image
Difference between Dyeing and Printing: No. Dyeing Printing 1. No localized application. Localized application. 2.   Higher liquor ratio. Less liquor ratio. 3. Thickener is not used. Thickener is used. 4. Color is applied   through solution. Color is applied through paste. 5. Only   one dye solution is used in case of dyeing application. One or more dye is used during the application of printing. 6. Fibers,yarn,fabrics are dyed by applying of dyeing   application. Printing is done on the fabric surface. 7. Perfect design is not needed here. Perfect design is must needed.   Dyeing: Dyeing is the process of imparts colors of textile material through a colorant (dyes and pigments). Colorant: Organic and inorganic materials that can impart color on textile. Dye: Dyes are colored,unsat...
