When you spin, you put twist into fibres so that they hold together to form a continuous thread. Navajo Plying - Making a three-ply yarn 8. Designed to appeal to the beginning spinner, tips and hints are provided that illustrate how easy, enjoyable, and relaxing spinning can be. When I was in Kenya, women spun Romney wool chiefly "in the grease," but it often locked in large amounts of dirt in the process. Spin spin spin! Covers fiber characteristics, preparation and spinning, choosing a wheel, and crafting the finished yarn into useful and attractive pieces. I Made It! Leave the original loop of fiber anchored on the spindle hook. Description If you are a knitter or crocheter looking to take the step from just using manufactured yarn to making your own this is a great book to get you started. A bunch of loose fibers will fall apart if you pull on their ends. Launching a Patreon! First and foremost, you want a balanced drop spindle that spins true. Either one will do just fine to learn on. It is also much easier to learn to spin wool than silk, or cotton and other vegetable fibres.

  • 7. Wool Combing

    7. Wool Combing

    7. Wool Combing Errol Wood Learning objectives On completion of this topic you should be able to: • Outline the objectives of wool combing • Describe the design of a typical rectilinear comb • Explain the steps in rectilinear combing – feeding, initial combing, final combing and drawing off, and sliver formation • Discuss the means by which noils are removed, and the balance required in setting the amount to be removed • Explain the purpose of re-combing • Calculate: tear ratio, noil(%), romaine, regain and combing production • Discuss the factors that affect the combing quality of fine wools Key terms and concepts Combing (Nobel and rectilinear), nips per minute, doublings, noils, finisher gilling, packaging, re- combing, tear, noil(%), romaine, percent fibres less than 30 mm, combing production. Introduction to the topic Wool combing is a comprehensive term when used in its widest sense, and it embraces all the operations carried out in a topmaking plant. It includes the processes of raw wool scouring, drying, carding, backwashing and preparer gilling. Then follows the actual combing operation and the sequence of topmaking processes concludes with two gilling steps called top finishing (or finisher gilling). Combing is not included in the semiworsted or woollen processing routes. Wool combing, the single process, is indispensable in the manufacture of a worsted yarn. The card has disentangled the fibres in the mass of scoured wool and has mixed them in a roughly parallel formation. However, during the carding process many fibres will have been broken, and the card sliver will consist of a variety of fibre lengths. Some vegetable matter will have been removed but fragments remain.
  • Need for Lap Preparation

    Need for Lap Preparation

    Need for Lap preparation: The combers are fed with a small lap produced by combining several slivers. The raw material delivered by the card is unsuitable for combing as regards both form and fiber arrangement. If card slivers were just combined and fed to the comber, true nipping by the nipper plates would occur only on the high points, with the risk that the nippers could not retain the less firmly compressed edge zones of the slivers asshown in the below fig. This is because the slivers are not flattened. The fibres could then be pulled out as clumps by the circular combs during combing operation. A sheet with the greatest possible degree of evenness in cross section, with uniform thickness is therefore required as in-feed to the comber. Effect of fibre presentation: The fiber arrangement must also be taken into account, i.e. in this case the disposition of the hooks. If the comber is to straighten hooks, as it is intended to, then the fibers must be presented to it with leading hooks. The carded slivers have trailing hooks as the majority hooks (more than 50%) as the sliver emerges out of the calendar rollers in the carding machine. Each time the sliver is packed in a can and taken out, the majority hooks change. For example, as the sliver is withdrawn from the card can, the original trailing hooks (as the sliver went into the can) are now counted as the leading hooks as can be seen in Fig. Hence, at this stage majority hooks are the leading hooks.

    Short Staple Pre-Spinning Machinery at ITMA ’03

    Volume 3, Issue 3, Fall 2003 Short Staple Pre-Spinning Machinery at ITMA ’03 Wade Carter N.C. State University, College of Textiles, Extension and Applied Research Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Short staple pre-spinning machinery shown at ITMA’03 in Birmingham, England emphasized compact opening lines with integrated multi-functional equipment. New technologies in carding included new machinery design, monitored and controlled waste removal, and a lengthened carding zone. Drawing innovations included a self-optimizing system for setting the break draft and an automatic quick adjustment of roller spacing. No new developments were shown in the short staple lap winding and combing areas. The only interesting feature shown on roving machines was a quick doffing system. Keywords: Opening/Cleaning/Blending, Carding, Lapping/Combing, Drawing, Roving Opening/Cleaning/Blending classical tasks of opening, cleaning, and blending, the functions of fire protection, There were fewer machines and vendors micro-dust removal and foreign fiber exhibiting in these process areas than in the separation are now integrated. The previous four ITMA exhibitions. Notably implications for short staple yarn producers absent were Rieter and Crosrol. Since would be lower space requirement, less ITMA’99 Crosrol has gone out of business. exhaust air, lower energy consumption, and Marzoli had a booth at the show but did not lower maintenance and setting expenditure. exhibit any machinery in this area. The four Trutzschler components making up the compact line are as follows: Trutzschler 1.
