Benefits of Compact Ring Spun Yarn in Other Spun Yarns

BACKGROUND In 1991, textile researchers at Universities in Eastern Europe introduced a change in the traditional manufacture of ring-spun yarn. Condensation of the roving web prior to entering the spinning triangle produced a less hairy and more compact yarn structure. Surface fibers from the condensed roving provided reduced protruding surface hair and a smaller diameter […]

Power Consumption in Ring Spinning Mills

Two types of energy can be used in a specific spinning mill; electrical energy and thermal energy. Machines, air conditioning, lamps used for illumination and compressors consume electrical energy while the thermal energy is consumed by air conditioning and processes such as fixation of yarns.

Yarn formation using Air-Jet Spinners

The Air-Jet spinning is very sensitive to the fiber length and fiber length distribution(short fiber content) of the material being processed. The amount of wrapping twist varies depending upon the length of the wrapping fibers as only a part of the total extent is utilized to wrap the core fibers. Wrapping the fibers shorter 12.5 mm practically do not make a significant contribution to the strength of the yarn.Air-jet Spinning is suitable for processing medium and long staple comber cotton fibers a

Spun Yarns

Yarns are continuous strands of fibers that can be woven or knitted into fabrics. Natural staple fibers usually requires processes such as spinning to make yarns. Silk yarn, extracted from silk cocoon are continuous filament yarns. Most of the synthetic yarns also does not require the additional processes of spinning.
