Five Thread Overlock Thread Breakage Detector

Overlock, also known as "serging" or "serger stitch", can be formed with one to four threads, one or two needles, and one or two loopers. Overlock sewing machines are usually equipped with knives that trim or create the edge immediately in front of the stitch formation. Household and industrial overlock machines are commonly used for garment seams in knit or stretchy fabrics, for garment seams where the fabric is light enough that the seam does not need to be pressed open, and for protecting ...

Sustainable Value Additions for Textile Machinery Processes

The engineering professionals must always put their best efforts on the manufacturing floor with innovative experiments and making them successful by adding value to the process for long term sustainability of the organization. Here, few experiments and their results are ...

Study On Hairiness Reduction in Nozzle - Ring Spinning: Role of Air Drag Forces and Angle of Impact of Air Current

In this paper we report on the effect of axial angle of air inlets of air-nozzles on yarn hairiness reduction in Ring spinning. Simulation of airflow was carried out using Computational Fluid Dynamics Software (CFD) to compute drag forces acting on yarn and hairs. Nozzle-Ring yarns have lower hairs compared to control yarn in all hair-length ...

Effect of Cleaning Point of Uniclean Machine in Blow room on Cleaning Efficiency and Yarn Quality

The blow room is primary stage of spinning for producing smooth passage of raw material, required for subsequent process. The effect of beater speed, grid bar setting and cotton trash percentage upon Uniclean (B 11) has studied for quality characteristics of cotton. For good fibre spinning requires efficient opening & cleaning of raw material. The beating point of uniclean machine is depending upon trash content in cotton. By ...

Energy Saving - A need of the Hour in Present Scenario

The machinery manufacturers have developed many energy conserving ancillaries to reduce energy consumption. Ring spinning is a major consumer of energy and it accounts for 50% of total spinning mill consumption. Studies conducted by SITRA in modern ring frames revealed that about 1/3 of total machine power is ...

Elements of Circular Knitting

Knitting Industry in India contributes more than 50% in terms of volume & around 35% in terms of value of our total garment exports. It is the only sector which is growing at a faster rate than any other segment in textiles & given the trend for casual dressing with greater thrust on comfort, the knits sector holds immense potential for ...
