Spinning mill Questions Part - 1

1. A fully mature fiber has a well-developed thick cell-wall (Yes/no)

Ans. Yes.

2. An immature fiber has a very thin cell-wall (Yes/no)

Ans. Yes.

3. In mature fiber, dye absorption is high (yes/no)
Ans. Yes

4. In immature fiber, dye absorption is low (yes/no)

Ans. Yes

5. What is staple length?

Ans. The average length of spinnable fiber is called staple length.

6. If staple length is increase then yarn quality is also increase (yes/no).

Ans. Yes

7. Toughness of fiber has a direct effect on yarn and fiber strength (yes/no)

Ans. Yes

8. If fiber strength is higher, then yarn and fabric strength is also higher (yes/ no)

Ans. Yes

9. Short fibers deteriorate the yarn strength and uniformity (true/false)

Ans. True.

10. What is the minimum strength for a textile fiber?

Ans. Approximately 6 CN/tex (about 6km breaking length)

11. What do you know about Presley index =?

Ans. Breaking load in Ibs/Bundle weight in mg.

12. What is fiber elongation?

Ans. Elongation is specified as a percentage of the starting length.

13. What is bale management?

Ans. Testing, sorting and mixing bales according to the properties of fiber for producing specific good quality yarn at minimum cost is called bale management.

14. When bale mixing is done?

Ans. Before the blow room/Before the bales going into blow room.

15. What are the basic operations in the blow room

Ans.

  • Opening
  • Cleaning
  • Mixing & blending
  • Even feed of material to the card.

16. What is carding?

Ans. Carding may be defined as the reduction of an entangled mass of fiber to a filmy web by working them between two closely spaced, relatively moving surface clothed with sharp wire points.

17. Objective of carding

Ans.

  • To open up the cotton in to single fiber state.
  • To reduce the number of neps, short fibers.
  • To produce a thick untwisted rope of fiber called sliver.

18. Carding is called the heart/mother of spinning (true/ false)

Ans. True.

19. What are the main objectives of draw frame?

Ans.

  • Straightening & parallelization of fibers by drafting & drawing.
  • Minimization of irregularity by doubling.
  • Blending & mixing of fibers.
  • To produce a more uniform sliver of definite wt/yds.

20. What are the faults of blow room?

Ans.

  • Soft lap,
  • Conical lap,
  • Barrel shaped,
  • Split lap,
  • Ragged selvedge,
  • Lap licking.

21. Find out the hank of the lap when the weight of the lap is 14 oz/yds

Ans.
14 oz contains = 1 yds,
1 oz contains = 1/14 yds,
16 oz or 1 lb contains = 16/14 yds
=16/14×840 hank=0.00136 hank
So hank of lap = 0.00136.

22. Find out the wt/yds of the lap when hank of the lap is 0.0014?

Ans.
Weight of 0.0014×840 yds = 1 lbs or 16 oz
1.176 yds = 16 oz
1 yds = 16/ 1.176 oz = 13.6 oz
So weight of lap = 13. 6 oz/yds

23. For cotton, higher the yarn count, finer the yarn (yes/no)

Ans. Yes

24. For jute, lower the count, finer the yarn (yes/ no)

Ans. Yes.

25. What is the name of combing waste?

Ans. Noils.

RKM

RKM INFORMATION This can be expressed by the “Length of yarn in km” at which yarn will break of its own weight”. This is equivalent to breaking load in g/tex. RKM is the short expression for “Reisskilometer” – “Breaking-kilometre”, which is an unit out of date. E.g.: a Cotton-yarn with 15 RKM means, it would break of its own weight, if you wind off 15 km of the yarn and hang it up in 15 km. Nowadays it is common practice, to use the unit Centi-Newton per Tex (cN/Tex) or gram-force per Tex (gf/Tex). RKM and cN/Tex or gf/Tex are practically the same (a slight difference would be there)   SINGLE YARN STRENGTH (Breaking force) :  This is the force required to break a strand of single yarn. It is expressing Centi-Newton (cN).     STRENGTH (Tenacity) : The Tensile Strength expressed as force per unit linear density is called Tenacity. This is normally expressed as gram force per tex (gf/tex).   CSP (Count Strength Product) : CSP, the bundle strength...

HOW TO CALCULATE YARN DIAMETER

HOW TO CALCULATE YARN DIAMETER     The diameter of  yarn can be calculated by 1divded 28 Square root of Count is called as Diameter of yarn in Per inch. Example :-      Count - 20s & 40s Formula:- 1/28 Square root of  Count = Diameter of inch 28Square root of  20 = 125.22 1/125.22 = 0.007986 Per inch 0.007986 x 25.4 = 0.203 So the diameter of yarn is 0.203 Formula:- 1/28 Square root of  Count = Diameter of inch 28Square root of  40 = 177.088 1/177.088 = 0.005647 Per inch 0.005647  x  25.4 = 0.203 So the diameter of yarn is 0.143 Then 1Divded 28 Square root of count why we apply Here?  

Spinning mill Questions Part - 2

1. What is fiber? Ans:  Fiber or fiber is classes of materials that are continuous filaments or are in discrete elongated pieces, similar to lengths of thread. They are very important in the biology of both plants and animals, for holding tissues together. 2. What is textile fiber? Ans:   Textile fiber  has some characteristics which differ between fiber to Textile fiber. Textile fiber can be spun into a yarn or made into a fabric by various methods including weaving, knitting, braiding, felting, and twisting. The essential requirements for fibers to be spun into yarn include a length of at least 5 millimeters, flexibility, cohesiveness, and sufficient strength. Other important properties include elasticity, fineness, uniformity, durability, and luster. 3. What is yarn? Ans:  Yarn is a long continuous length of interlocked fibers, suitable for use in the production of textiles, sewing, crocheting, knitting, weaving, embroidery, and rope making. 4.
