Title: Production of international quality yarn Authors: Balasubramanian, P Abstract: The production of international quality yarn is somewhat an uphill task for most of the spinners of Indian textile industry. The yarn export of this industry — with an installed capacity of about 26.59 million spindles, which is nearly 17% of world’s installed ring spindles — accounts for only 4% of the total export market. This paper attempts to clear some of the myths entertained by the spinners and highlights the methodology to be adopted to produce international quality yarn. Page(s): 267-270

Title: Recent developments in two-for-one twisting and their relevance to Indian textile units Authors: Patil, R G; Agrawal, A K; Patel, K A; Grover, J M Abstract: Two-for-one twisters have gained wide acceptance in the international as well as in the Indian markets. This paper describes the recent developments, including those exhibited at ITMA-91, in TFO twisters and their relevance to Indian textile units. The developments are mainly in the application areas, machine productivity, refinement in the functional parts, automation and process control instrumentation, and environmental compatibility of the machines. A cost comparison of twisting on low-cost completely indigenous machine and high-cost but high productivity machine is also made. Page(s): 263-266

Title: An overview of spinning technologies: Possibilities, applications and limitations Authors: Salhotra, K R Abstract: The new spinning technologies such as rotor, air jet and friction spinning have tremendous potential for higher productivity. However, at present these technologies not only suffer from the problem of imparting some undesirable properties to the fabric but also have limited applicability due to the restricted choice of fibres and counts which can be successfully spun on them. Ring-spinning system, though having lower productivity, does not have these drawbacks. This system, therefore, with the incorporation of some recent improvements is likely to occupy the centre stage for the next few years. Page(s): 255-262

Title: Wrap spinning technology — A critical review of yarn properties Authors: Subramaniam, V; Mohamed, A Peer Abstract: The wrap spinning has the advantage of using coarser fibres for finer yarns in addition to its superiority in production and yarn quality. This paper discusses the structure and properties of wrap spun yarns and identifies areas that need researchers’ attention to have a better understanding of the applications of these yarns.
