Abstract

Ring spinning frame is the most common and widely used technique for the production of yarn. This yarn subsequently utilized for the production of fabrics. Recently the research studies are more emphasis to create the living comfort condition. The yarn package density has a vital role to determine the feel, comfort, bulkiness and dyeing characteristics of the spun yarn. The yarn packaging density is largely influenced by the yarn process parameters. Ring spinning technique is the most common and widely used for the production of yarn. This yarn subsequently utilized for the production of fabrics. Recently the research studies are more emphasis to create the living comfort condition. The yarn package density is a vital role to determine the feel, comfort, bulkiness and dyeing characteristics of the spun yarn. It is largely influenced by the yarn manufacturing techniques and raw material used. The effects of spinning process parameters on packing density will be helpful to predetermine the yarn comfort behaviour prior to the complete the fabric manufacturing process. Mechanical behaviour of the staple yarn depends on the fiber characteristics and the yarn structure i.e. the arrangement of the individual fiber on the cross-section of the yarn. The fiber distribution on the cross section of the yarn and packing density of yarn has been investigated. The study provides how the spinning process parameters affect the internal structure of ring spun yarn. The aim of the study is to improve the package density of the yarn to achieve dynamometric and comfort properties of yarn to attract a wide variety of customers. Yarn Packing Density represents inter-fiber distance and friction, hence controlling the mechanical and comfort properties of the yarn. The main objective of this study is to control the packing density of yarn during the spinning process. In this work the 100 percent cotton used as raw material and spun on a ring spinning machine. The 135 ring yarns samples have been produced from three different types of yarn counts include (Ne 8, 16 and 24) with nine different samples of identical counts were produced. The three different variables within the count sample are TPI and spindle speed and count. Yarn packing density was calculated by using the driven equation by the application of multiple regression models. The final result shows that packing density has directly related to the TPI, Spindle speed and count

Highlights

Cotton is vegetable fiber with many desired physical characteristics like strength; good comfort and dye pick up ability. it is suitable for making a wide range of textile goods
The effect of spindle speed on yarn packing density: Trend line clearly depict that packing density and spindle speed are directly proportional to each other, The spindle speed has directly affect the yarn packing density during the yarn production process
The high spindle speed increase the yarn tension due the high tension the spinning triangle becomes shorter and the fiber binding in the yarn cross section is decreases so that the fibers come closer to each other and yarn packing density is increased

Summary

Introduction

Cotton is vegetable fiber with many desired physical characteristics like strength; good comfort and dye pick up ability. it is suitable for making a wide range of textile goods. For the production of the quality yarn, it is necessary to check and test the cotton properties properly. Almost all the cotton bales have been tested in the United States and in other quality yarn producing countries around the globe. Cotton fibers are firstly arranged into the different groups for the classification It is done manually by sorting the material based on the area of cultivation. The important physical properties of spun cotton yarn that is package density of yarn were studied and investigated its relationship with production process parameters. The optimization of spun cotton yarn, the precise evaluation of the production process was investigated at (different count, twist and production rate) and correlated each property with the quality parameter of the yarn. The spinner (producer) can optimize the required cotton yarn result prior to the complete spinning process
