Compact Roving for Improved Quality of Ring Spunyarn

Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2017, Vol 25, Issue 1

Abstract

This article is concerned with the development of a compact system suitable for producing compact roving. The objective is to reduce twist and improve the performance of roving in the subsequent processes. Combed compact cotton yarn with a linear density of 9.84tex was spun from compact and conventional roving. In order to conclude that compactness had been formed in roving, two special tests, namely the minimum twist of cohesion and roving cohesion strength were determined. Yarns produced from conventional and compact roving were compared for their strength, evenness and hairiness. The results show that there was an improvement in the strength and hairiness of the compact yarns produced from compact roving when compared to conventional yarns.
