Textile Process Calculations

This document provides information about two processes (A and B) for producing comber laps from carded slivers. For Process A, the total doubling is 144 and total draft is 14.96, resulting in a ribbon lap weight of 47.4 g/m. For Process B, the total doubling is 288 and total draft is 28.84, resulting in a comber lap weight of 49.1 g/m. The CV% of the laps produced is calculated to be 12.74% for Process A and 14.43% for Process B. Given additional information about feed rate, delivery rate, and combed sliver count, the noil extraction percentage is calculated to be

Assignment : 1

1. The count of the carded sliver is 0.12s Ne.


PROCESS-A (Lap doubling): 24 carded slivers are combined and a draft of 2.2 is applied
to get the sliver lap. 6 such laps are combined in the ribbon lap machine and draft of 6.8
is applied to obtain a final lap for comber.
PROCESS-B (Sliver doubling): 8 carded slivers are combined in a draw frame process and
a draft of 8.1 is applied. 36 such slivers are combined in a super lap former and a draft of
3.56 is applied to obtain a final lap for comber.
Calculate the total doubling, total draft and the weight per unit length (g/m) of the lap
produced in each process.

2. In the above case, the carded slivers have a mass variation of 12% CV. Additional CV%
introduced due to drafting in different machines are:
Sliver lap machine
Ribbon lap machine

:
:

1.5%
4.0%

Draw frame
Super lap former

:
:

7.5%
2.8%

Calculate the CV% of laps produced in Processes A and B.


3. The linear density of the feed lap is 60 g/m. The net forward movement of the detaching
roller per cycle is 30 mm. The feed length per cycle is 6 mm. Slivers from 4 combing
heads are combined and a draft of 10 is given. The resultant combed sliver count (N e) is
0.16. What is the noil extraction percentage?

Solution
1. Process A
Total number of doublings
Total draft
Tex of the card sliver
Tex of the ribbon lap
So, g/m of the ribbon lap is

Process B
Total number of doublings
Total draft
Tex of the sliver
Tex of the comber lap
So, g/m of the ribbon lap is

= 24 x 6
= 2.2 x 6.8

= 144
= 14.96

= 590.5/0.12 = 4920.8
= 4920.8 x (24/2.2) x (6/6.8)
= 4736.6
= 4736.6/1000
= 47.4

= 8 x 36
= 8.1 x 3.56

= 288
= 28.84

= 4920.8 x (8/8.1)
= 4920.8 x (8/8.1)x (36/3.56)
= 4914.6/1000
= 49.1

= 4914.6

2. Process A
CV% of the comber lap
Process A
CV% of the comber lap

= 12.74%
= 14.43%

3. Count of the combed sliver


= 0.16s Ne
Therefore, the count of the fibre strand emerging out of single combing head
= 0.16 x(4/10)
= 0.064 s Ne
Tex of the fibre strand emerging out of single combing head
= 590.5/0.064
= 9226.6 Tex
= 9226.6/1000
= 9.23 g/m
Weight of fibres fed per cycle per head
Weight of fibres delivered per cycle per head
Therefore, Noil percentage
= 22.2 %

= 60 x (1/1000) x 6
= (30/1000) x 9.23

= 0.36 g
= 0.28 g
