In this paper, a new yarn evenness measurement method based on machine vision is introduced, which is a direct measurement process, as opposed to other methods. Two types of yarns (i.e., same yarn count but different quality grade and same quality grade but different yarn count) are measured to determine the coefficient of variation unevenness, which can be compared with the results of USTER ME...

Air-jet-textured polyester yarns were produced using two feed yarns differing in filament fineness and number of filaments. By varying the yarn overfeed, filament fineness and air pressure, four textured yarns were produced. Woven fabrics were prepared using these textured yarns as weft and cotton yarns in warp. To study the effect of air-jet-texturing parameters on the bending and compression ...

This paper illustrates the development of a system to measure the variation in yarn parameters using image processing with the help of a low cost USB web camera along with a yarn moving arrangement. The complete system comprises of yarn guides and tension control device, motor with gear box, monitor for displaying yarn parameters etc. The system enables to develop yarn diameter spectrogram and ...

Introduction: The surface of aramid filament is smooth, which a great defect for impact resistance and composite molding aramid/epoxy composite. In this study, new type yarn—aramid core-spun yarn introduced to the fabrication compositematerials. It increases friction among yarns optimizes performance yarns. Methods: To verify improvement in material, hand lay-up process used, first layer fourth...

The kinetics of wicking of liquid droplets into yarns was studied by a computerized imaging system. A new method is suggested for characterization of the yarn structure by monitoring the droplet absorption. The method is based on the comparative analysis of the time needed for the droplet disappearance as a function of the droplet volume for various yarns. A mathematical model is developed for ...

Regarding the importance of ring spinning method among spinning systems, great potentials exist for research about on the improvement of the quality and properties of ring spun yarn. This study aims to improve yarn quality by changing the shape and dimensions of spinning triangle through forming a groove in the middle zone of the front darfting roller with a curvature of 5 to 7 mm. For the to...

air-jet weaving is an advanced weaving method with high efficiency and productivity. it is one of the most widely used methods of weaving in the world. in air-jet filling insertion, the motion of weft yarn is caused by friction between weft yarn and air blown through nozzle. after declamping and subjecting the yarn to air stream, its motion is not active but very complicated and influenced by s...

The torque in single-spun yarns is an inherent property of the twisting and bending of staple fibres during the formation of yarn combined with the effect of applied tension on the yarn. The consequences of yarn torque are well known and are widely observed as yarn instability, e.g., yarn rotation under tension; local snarling and entanglement at low loads, and as distortion in fabric, i.e., ed...
