Open-end or Carded or Break or Rotor Spinning

The first functioning of rotor spinning, machine was presented at the ITMA in 1967.Yarn spinning according to the rotor spinning principle predominates for all nonconventional spinning methods.It omits the step of forming a roving.After drafting, the sliver is fed into a rotary beater.This device ensures that the fibers are beaten into a thin supply which enters a duct and gets deposited on the sides of the disc(rotor).The transportation of the fibers is achieved through air currents.

Yarn Spinning, Blow Room Functions

Blow room is the starting of the spinning operation where the fiber is opened, cleaned, mixed, micro dust removed and evened thus passed to carding machine without increasing fiber rupture, fiber neps, broken seed particles and without removing more good fibers. The basic functions of blow room are opening, cleaning, dust removal, blending and evenly feeding the material on the card.

Functions of Carding Machine

Carding is a mechanical process that breaks up locks and unorganized clumps of fiber and then aligns the individual fibers so that they are more or less parallel with each other. Carding can also be used to create blends of different fibers or different colors. Carding plays a crucial role in all spinning cycles particularly in the woolen spinning cycle, in which it incorporates different functions, all essential in order to obtain the level of quality required for the product.

Ring Spinning, the widely used yarn formation technique

The Ring Spinning is the most widely used form of the spinning machine due to significant advantages in comparison with the new spinning processes. The ring spinning machine is used in the textile industry to simultaneously twist staple fibers into yarn and then wind it onto bobbins for storage. The yarn loop rotating rapidly about a fixed axis generates a surface referred to as “balloon”. Ring frame settings are chosen to reduce yarn hairiness and the risk of glazing or melting the fiber.

Yarn Formation Techniques

The Fibre formation process includes a change in shape, structure, and properties of the thermoplastic polymer. The polymer pellets or granules are fed into an extruder where, through heating, their melting temperature is exceeded. The polymeric melt is then transported, under pressure, to the spinneret. Yarn formation methods were originally developed for spinning of natural fibers including cotton, linen, wool and silk.
