Yarn manufacture I : Principle of Carding and Drawing

Indian Institute of Technology Delhi and NPTEL via Swayam

This course may be unavailable.

Overview

Carding and drawing are two fundamental process in yarn manufacture. Incarding the fibre tufts are opened , cleaned and separated thoroughly by fast moving pinned surfaces and then reassembled to form a nice 2D array of fibres which is subsequently transformed into an uniform sliver. Drawframe is essentially a stretching device for sliver used to improve mass irregularity of sliver and parallelization of fibresINTENDED AUDIENCE : Undergraduate students of Textile TechnologyPREREQUISITES : Nill
