Process Flow to Manufacturing Woven Fabric

 

  1. Yarn from Spinning

    • Yarn is produced by spinning fibers.

  2. Warp Yarn Preparation

    • Warping: Arranging warp yarns onto a beam.
    • Sizing: Strengthening the warp yarns to withstand weaving.
    • Drawing-in and Denting: Inserting the warp yarns into the loom.

  3. Looming

    • Setting up the loom for weaving.

  4. Tying-in

    • Connecting the prepared warp yarns to the loom.

Weaving Preparation:

  • For Conventional Loom (Shuttle Loom):

    • Pirn Winding: Winding the weft yarn onto a pirn for insertion into the shuttle.

  • For Modern Loom (Shuttleless Loom):

    • Cone (Directly from Spinning): Weft yarn is used directly from spinning in the form of a cone.
I hold a BSc in Textile Engineering specializing in Fabric Manufacturing from BGMEA University of Fashion & Technology. As an Industrial Engineer, I optimize processes, conduct time and motion studies, improve production planning, ensure quality, and implement cost-saving strategies to enhance efficiency and drive success.

Difference Between Time Study, Production Study, Method Study, and Motion Study

Aspect Time Study Production Study Method Study Motion Study Definition Measurement of the time taken to complete a task. Analysis of production output and efficiency. Study to improve the process or method of work. Study of physical movements to optimize efficiency. Objective Determine standard time for tasks. Evaluate and improve production performance. Simplify and standardize work methods. Eliminate unnecessary movements and reduce fatigue. Focus Time required for a task or operation. Output, efficiency, and bottlenecks. Work process, tools, and layout. Worker movements and ergonomics. Tools Used Stopwatch, time sheet, or software. Production records, efficiency reports. Flowcharts, process charts, layout diagrams. Motion charts, video analysis, and stop-motion tools. Outcome Standard time for operations. Improved productivity and reduced downtime. Optimized methods for higher efficiency. Reduced unnecessary motions and improved ergonomi...

Understanding Yarn Count: A Simple Guide

Yarn count is an important concept in the textile industry. It tells us how thick or thin a yarn is, and it relates the length of the yarn to its weight . In simple terms, yarn count shows the ratio of length to weight .  Two Types of Yarn Count Systems There are two main systems used to measure yarn count: Direct Count and Indirect Count . 1. Direct Count System In this system, the weight of a fixed length of yarn is measured. The weight per unit length determines the yarn count. The formula is: N = (I × C) / L Where: N = Yarn count I = Unit of length (like meters or yards) C = Weight of the sample L = Length of the sample In the Direct Count System , the length of yarn is fixed , and its weight varies based on the yarn's thickness. Common Direct Count Systems: Tex : The weight in grams of 1000 meters of yarn. Example : A 40 Tex yarn means 1000 meters of yarn weighs 40 grams. Denier : The weight in grams of 9000 meters of yarn. Example : A 150 Denie...
