    The document summarizes the process of yarn manufacturing from raw cotton fibers. It describes the major steps involved which include bale opening, mixing, blowroom cleaning, carding to align fibers, drawing to further parallel fibers, roving using the simplex frame, and ring spinning to draft and twist the roving into yarn. The end product of the spinning mill is yarn packaged in various forms like cones or cheeses ready for further processing or transportation to other mills.

    Process of Yarn Formation
    • Yarn is continuous strand which is made up of filaments
    or fibers. It is used to make fabric/textiles of different
    kinds.
    • Yarn formation methods were originally developed for
    spinning of natural fibers including cotton, linen, wool
    and silk.
    • ‘Yarn’ is defined by the American Society for Testing and
    Materials (ASTM) as “A generic term for a continuous
    strand of textile fiber, filament, or material suitable for
    knitting, weaving to form a textile fabric. Yarn occurs in
    the following forms.
    Yarn forms
    • A number of fibers twisted together.
    • A number of filaments laid together without
    twist.
    • A number of filaments laid together with more
    or less twist.
    • A single mono filament. e.g. Silk
    Yarn Manufacturing System
    • Yarn is defined as a linear assemblage of the fibers twisted
    together. The process of making the yarn from a textile fiber
    is called Spinning.
    • Spinning is the art of producing continuous, twisted Strands,
    of a desire size, from fibrous materials.
    • In a broad sense, the term is used to include all the
    operations through which cotton fibers are passed until they
    become yarn.
    • Spinning includes all the processes required to prepare and
    clean the fibers from the opening of the bale to the twisting
    of the yarn in its preparation for the textile loom .
    Process of Yarn Manufacturing
    Bale Opener Mixing Blowroom

    Combing Drawing Carding

    Spinning
    Simplex (Ring
    Frame)
    • The basic process sequence involved in the
    manufacturing of the cotton yarn is shown above in the
    chart.
    • Some of the process like combing can be skipped when
    some low quality yarn is required.
    • The final end product of the spinning mill will be yarn
    which can be delivered in different forms of packages like
    cones, cheeses, hanks etc.
    • The package may be selected according to the
    convenience and for easy transportation as the weaving
    or knitting mill will be away from the spinning mill in
    normal.
    Bale Opener
    Bale Opener
    • The cotton tufts are opened in this process.
    • As the cotton arrives in an extremely compressed
    condition the first operation is to loosen the matted
    fibers
    • The cotton fiber is loosened by means of rotating
    spiked rollers of the bale opener.
    Mixing
    Mixing
    • This is a process of mixing the same/different
    category of fibers to get desired properties
    and cost effectiveness.
    • Mixing is done after the study of the essential
    properties of fiber like staple length, Tensile
    strength, fineness, uniformity etc.
    Blow room
    Blow room
    • In this process the cleaning and opening of the
    cotton is done by beaters and openers.
    • The foreign materials like dust particles, seeds
    of cotton and other impurities are partially
    removed in this process.
    • The cotton tufts are opened and cleaned in
    this process and the cotton lap is made out.
    Carding
    Carding
    • Carding is the heart of spinning in this process
    the minute impurities like small seed particles,
    immature fibers etc. are removed.
    • The straightening and aligning of fibers are
    done in this process.
    • In carding the Blow room lap is attenuated to
    the card sliver.
    Drawing
    Drawing
    • Through drafting fibers get paralleled
    • Up to Eight Carded Slivers are fed into the Draw-
    Frame and they are stretched/Straightened and
    made into a single sliver.
    • Also fiber blending can be done at this stage.
    Simplex (Speed Frame)
    Simplex (Roving)
    • Further drafting is done here to get the fibers
    more aligned/paralleled.
    • The Sliver from Draw-Frame is thicker and will
    be difficult to be fed into the Ring-frame as is,
    hence here the Slivers are stretched and were
    made thinner by Drafting and mild twisting (so
    as to strengthen the Roving).
    • The End-Product from the Simplex is called as
    Roving
    Ring Spinning
    • The roving is fed into the Ring-frame and is made
    into yarn by further Drafting & Twisting.
    • Basic Functions of Ring Frame are
    • to draft the roving until the required fineness is
    achieved
    • To impart strength to the fiber, by inserting twist.
    • Depending upon the yarn count required, the
    drafting and twisting can be adjusted.
