Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic yarn manufacturers must address the requirements of all the participants in the textile and apparel supply chain in order to remain competitive and to differentiate their products from offshore sources. The objective of this research was to better understand these requirements through visits to companies, elaboration of case studies, discussions and interviews with members of the supply chain. Case studies were conducted with the participation of machinery, yarn, fabric and apparel manufacturers, as well as research and retail organizations. Both domestic and Latin American companies were pursued; a total of 32 company interviews were conducted involving 64 participants. These interviews were used to map the yarn specification process across the supply chain; identify yarn characteristics most frequently specified; identify how the characteristics are measured and their importance as a function of the final product. The products investigated were denim, t-shirts, socks, sheets and sewing thread made of cotton or poly-cotton blends. Yarn specification across the supply chain includes three basic yarn characteristics, yarn count, yarn type (spinning system), and fiber content. Retailers put more emphasis specifying fabric characteristics rather than yarns characteristics. Detailed yarn characteristics such as UsterÃ'® % CV, tensile properties, and surface characteristics are usually decided at the fabric and yarn manufacturing level, based on the fabric specifications and the requirements for an optimum process performance. Methods and equipment used to test fabrics and yarns are relatively standard for both domestic and international companies. Analyses of different software used to manage product data revealed that these are not used to their full extend and detailed yarn characteristics are rarely incorporated into final product design. It was also possible to identify performance metrics and several business practices that can bring domestic yarn manufac.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology written by Carl A. Lawrence and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-03-28 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existing textbooks covering the subject of yarn manufacture largely concentrate on describing the workings of machines. Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology presents complete coverage of yarn manufacture and technology and current research findings on the structure and properties of spun yarns. Written by a well-known and respected authority on textile technology, it not only introduces the subject, but it provides students with an advanced understanding of the various process stages. The book introduces the rudiments of staple yarn technology, covering the manufacturing process, the raw materials, and processes including short staple, worsted, semiworsted and woollen spinning, doubling, and specialty yarn processes. It also covers the more advanced studies in staple yarn technology, including new developments in fiber preparation technology, carding technology, roller drafting, gilling, ring spinning, open-end rotor spinning, air jet spinning and new research on unconventional spinning systems. This extensive range of topics, along with hundreds of tables and illustrations presented in Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology make it a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of the field.
Download or read book Short Staple Yarn Manufacturing written by Dan J. McCreight and published by Woodhead Publishing Limited. This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short Staple Yarn Manufacturing presents the processing knowledge necessary to economically manufacture quality yarns from fibers that can range up to 63.5 millimeters (2.5 inches) in length. These yarns are typically referred to as short staple yarns and are generally produced on a sequence of machines that are together called the cotton system. Processing of fibers into short staple yarns is the subject of this textbook because these yarns are produced in large volume for use in fabric manufacturing. There are multiple processing steps, each of which has a number of critical control factors that must be known, measured, and reacted to routinely if the highest quality yarns are to be spun. McCreight, Feil, Booterbaugh, and Backe describe each process as well as how to best set up and manage that process. Important and unique features found in this book include the presentation of selected data that have resulted from in-plant applied research projects, clearly defined textile industry jargon, and a partial list of important questions that the successful yarn spinner must ask and answer in an on-going fashion. The audience addressed is primarily those persons responsible for the manufacturing environment of such a spun yarn facility. The text is also appropriate for students in college level textile courses. The early sections can be used as an introduction to short staple spun yarn manufacturing for high school students. This text is also appropriate for the libraries of all educational institutions where textile courses are offered and for the libraries of all yarn manufacturing companies and plants.
