Development of a Weaving Method for Spatial Two-Layer Innovative Structure Linen Fabric
Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2015, Vol 23, Issue 6
Abstract
During the global technological progress, including in the textile field, it has become necessary to look for innovative solutions to make fabric designs that can be characterised by special texture and relief, as well as opportunities to create them with modern weaving looms. Most commonly, such innovative fabric structures can be woven by using several different methods, and sometimes by several weaving looms of different designs and uses. Thus this article provides an introduction and thorough analysis of two weaving methods used to weave such linen fabrics of innovative structure by modern computerised looms of different types and designs: the terry gripper weaving loom Smit GS940F and smooth fabric gripper jacquard weaving loom Dornier PTS 6/J C. In both cases the structure effects of those fabrics were rather similar. Most fabric properties are better for the fabrics woven by the second technique. For that kind of fabric structure it is therefore advisable to use the second weaving method, i. e. the smooth fabric gripper weaving loom Dornier PTS 6/J C. Smooth fabric looms are more versatile, and they do not require a set of specific complex mechanisms that are usually used on a terry gripper weaving loom.

Influence of the Bamboo/Cotton Fibre Blend Proportion on the Thermal Comfort Properties of Single Jersey Knitted Fabrics
The main aim was to find out the influence of the blend ratio and linear density on the thermal comfort properties of regenerated bamboo cotton blended single jersey knitted fabrics. An increase in the regenerated bamboo...
Influence of a Compression Garment on Average and Local Changes in Unit Pressure
On the basis of models developed and experimental studies, the impact of a compression garment on average and local changes in unit pressure was analysed. The study was based on the analysis of the results of 3D scans of...
Mathematical Modelling of Mechanical Properties of Textiles Subjected to Tension
Mathematical modelling of textiles subjected to one-directional tensile forces is presented. The models include the straightening of fibres at the beginning, accompanied by the compression of neighbouring fibres, and fin...
Finite Element Modeling for the Uni-Axial Tensile Behaviour of Metallic Warp-Knitted Fabric
The finite element analysis method (FEM), for its advantages of lower time and economic costing in predicting the mechanical properties of fabrics, was applied to warp-knitted fabrics. In this paper, two bar warp-knitted...
