Common Formulas

Grams per Meter	0.5905 / Ne
Grams per Yard	0.54 / Ne
Tex	den x .11 = 1000/Nm = Mic/25.4
Ne	Nm/1.693
DRAFT	(feed weight in g/m) / (delivery weight in g/m)
DRAFT	Tex (feed)/Tex(delivery)
DRAFT	delivery roll surface speed/feed roll surface speed
No. of hanks delivered by m/c	(Length delivered in m/min)/1.605grams per meter = 0.5905/Ne

Drawframe

Break draft	surface speed of 2nd roller / surface speed of back roller
Main draft	surface speed of 1st roller / surface speed of 2nd( middle) roller
Total draft	surface speed of delivery roller / surface of feed roller
Production in kgs / 8 hrs	(0.2836 x L x effy x Nd) / (Ne) L - delivery speed in m/min effy - efficiency Ne - english count Nd - No of delvieries
Production in kgs / hr	(FRD x FRrpm x 3.14 x 60 x effy x Nd) / (Ne x 840 x 36 x 2.2045) FRD - front roller dia in inches FRrpm - front roller rpm effy - efficiency Ne - Sliver hank Nd - number of deliveries

Winding

Production in kgs / 8 hrs	(0.2836 x L x effy x Nd) / (Ne) L - delivery speed in m/min effy - efficiency Ne - english count Nd - No of delvieries
Production in kgs / hr	( L x 1.0936 x 60 x effy ) / (hank (Ne) x 36 x 840 x 2.2045) L - delivery speed in m/min effy- efficiency Ne - English count ( number of 840 yards in one pound) 840 - constant 2.2045- to convert from lbs to kilograms

Carding

Production in kgs / hr	( L x 1.0936 x 60 x effy ) / (hank (Ne) x 36 x 840 x 2.2045) L - delivery speed in m/min effy- efficiency Ne - English count ( number of 840 yards in one pound) 840 - constant 2.2045- to convert from lbs to kilograms
Production in kgs / hr	(L x Ktex x 60 x effy) / ( 1000 ) L - delivery speed in m/min Ktex- sliver count in Ktex (kilotex) effy - efficiency 1000- to convert to kilograms from grams
Production in kgs / 8 hrs	(0.2836 x L x effy) / (Ne) L - delivery speed in m/min effy - efficiency Ne - English count
Production / 8 hrs	(Hank x Nd) /( Ne x 2.2045) Hank = no of hank (840 yards)delivered by the machine Nd = no of deliveries Ne = hank of the material
Total draft in card	(feed weight in g/m) / (sliver weight in g/m)

Speedframe & Ringframe

Twist / Inch (TPI)	Spindle speed / FRS FRS - front roller surface speed in inches/mi
FRS = FRrpm x 3.14 x FRD	FRS - Front roller surface speed FRD - front roller diamete
T.P.I	T.M. x sqrt(count or hank) T.M. - Twist multiplier sqrt - square root
Production in kgs / 8 hrs	(7.2 x SS x effy) / (TPI x Ne x 1000) SS - spindle speed
Spindle speed	m/min x TPI x 39.37
Hank delivered	spindle speed / ( tpi x 62.89)
Ring traveller speed in m/sec	(spindle speed x ring dia in mm x 3.14) / (60 x 1000)
