25
what does the helix angle affect?
amount of force in yarn because it is generated by how much twist is put in yarn
26
small angle of wrap = _ twisted, feels _
lightly, softer
27
large angle of wrap= _ twisted, _ tension in yarn
high, more
28
What does TM talk about?
influence of angle wrap
29
8 influences of twist on yarn properties
``` hand absorbency luster flexural abrasion resistance special effects contraction strength ```
30
how will low twist affect hand, absorbency, luster, flexural endurance
feel softer, more absorbent, more luster, more flexible,
31
what does a change in contraction cause?
change in yarn count and linear density
32
assumptions of strength in twist
yarn is made of unbreakable staple fibers and assume we have a continuous filament yarn
33
what is optimum twist?
maximum strength in the yarn, max twist that allows max strength
34
short fibers have a _ coherence curve than w long fiber
lower
35
5 effects of reducing fiber length
1. short fibers need more twist to reach strength 2. short fibers give lower strength 3. short fibers give harder hand 4. short fibers give less luster 5. short fibers require a higher cost of conversion
36
5 factors that influence effective staple length
1. fiber fineness 2. fiber crimp 3. fiber finish 4. fiber cross sectional shape 5. fiber stiffness
37
why do we do yarn winding
transfer yarns on better suited packages
38
what is the goal with yarn winding?(5)
large fault free package, no thin and thick, needs to unwind easily, may wax yarn to reduce friction for knitting, efficient package
39
what is the average number of bobbins put on a package
20
40
what are the two types of packages?
cheese and cone
41
what speeds do cheese packages need to work at?
high speeds
42
what type of yarns are mostly used on cheese packages?
filament yarn
43
which type of package has more problems with winding packages?
cone
44
what are cone packages mainly used for?
knit packages
45
What does the preclearer do?
senses and cuts out thick and think spots
46
What does the tensioner do?
keeps tension in yarn
47
winding can increase what?
hairiness because of running over the metal parts
48
what is the purpose of the split drum?
determines where the yarn ends up on the pakcage, goal to space yarn out and make sure it is not on top of each other
49
3 problems in winding?
neps irregularity hairiness
50
how do ribbions and patterns form?
traverse shift is too small and yarns wind right on top of each other
51
how do budgles form?
due to the outer layer of yarns putting pressure and squeezing the inner layers, poor tension control
52
what is clearing?
remvoing thick and thin spots that are predetermined
53
what is splicing?
joining the yarn ends together, dont want it to create thick or thin spots, we normally end up with something a little thicker
54
what does waxing a yarn do?
modifies yarn friction so it wont abrasive as easily
55
what do link winders do?
they are connected to the spinning frame and rolls doff into winders, they mske it easier to track packages
56
what do we do to staple yarns when they are twist lively?
twist yarns together in opposite direction than normally twisted
57
Twisted yarns together =
plied yarns.
58
twisted plied yarns togethr =
ropes
59
twist ropes together
cables
60
why is multifold done? (6)
done to improve regularity, increase strength, get balanced yarn, reduce hairness, imporve extensibility, produce speical effects
61
liveliness is a function of (3)
time amount of twist finish
62
reduce liveliness (2)
slash w heavy starch | steam
63
why is ring spinning expensive?
because of all the processing you have to go through for labor
64
what can we use in ring spinning
any fiber type
65
ring spinning can make what
any yarn size
66
why does ring spinning need drafting?
to reduce size
67
why does ring spinning need twist
to make yarn strong
68
fiber orientation in roping is what and cohesion
not good and cohesion is not very strong
69
why do we use a false twist spindel?
near the front roll to help hold it together so it wont draft there
70
where does the traveler sit
on the ring
71
where does the bobbin sit
on the spindle
72
bobbin speed _ spindle speed
=
73
belt turns forcing _ to turn forcing _ to turn
spindle and bobbin
74
what is the drive belt connected to
a master cylinder
75
what limits the amount of yarn on a package
the size of ring
76
why is ring spinning sloe
due to travelor speed
77
yarn oulls _ around the _
travelor, ring
78
in ring spinning twist happens becasue of what
the spindle
79
difference between traveler and spindle speed
traveler is a little less than spindle speed ( ab 100 rpm difference)
80
in ring spinning dront roll speeds is what
needs to stay constant
81
in ring spinning fyler and spindle speed needs what
to stay constant
82
the travelor speeds needs to what in ring spinning
change
83
in ring spinning if bobbin increase, travelor has to what
increase
84
2 biggest problems in end breaks
high tension and high variability in yarn
85
things that affect high tension in ring spinning (6)
yarn speed, yarn size, traveler speed, traveler weigh, ring size, surface area of ablloon
86
with high tension in ring spinning what are the 3 things we change to help fix it
control size of balloon, changhe traveler weight, change yarn speed
87
why is balloonless spinning used in woolen yarns q
to reduce the likelihood that yarn will break
88
how does balloonless spinning work?
collapse the balloon by putting a crown on top of the spindle and it forces yarn to run through the crown and collapse arounf spindle
89
why do we wax bigger rings
its more likely that the traveler will burn up and fly off
90
3 major problems with ring spinning
speed size of yarn package cost
91
pros to rubbing (3)
easier to set up faster easy to use
92
pros to roving (2)
better cohesion and better package size | can keep working w rest of bobbins if one breaks
93
similarities of roving and rubbing (2)
same yarn quality and both widely used
94
5 roving objectives
``` draft twist profuce roving lay build ```
95
what is necessary with ring twisting?3
tension control, twisting in opposite direction single twist, end break detectors
96
ring twisting process
ring spinning wing and clear twist on ring frame rewind from ring tube
97
how does two for one twisting work
the package does not turn, the twist happens from the rotation of a disc, 1 rotation inserts 2 turns of twist in the yarn
98
obliquity efffect
ordered to disordered state, adding twist
99
oe: strength goes down w _
twist
